Archy just gave the dental world something to chew on. The San Jose-based AI powerhouse locked in a $20M Series B led by TCV, with Bessemer Venture Partners, CRV, Entrée Capital, and 25 practicing dentists throwing in. That’s not just capital, it’s conviction from the people who actually feel the pain this platform solves. Founded in 2021 by Jonathan Rat, Benjamin Kolin, and Dr. Christine Liu, Archy isn’t just digitizing dentistry, it’s dragging a $500B industry out of the server room and into the cloud where it belongs.
Jonathan Rat, Archy’s CEO, saw the inefficiency firsthand watching his wife juggle a patchwork of 20th-century software systems while trying to run a modern practice. Benjamin Kolin, the CTO, brought the Uber-grade engineering muscle; he rebuilt Uber’s payment platform, so you know he’s not afraid of scale. Add Dr. Christine Liu’s clinical insight, and you get a platform that understands the dental grind from both sides of the chair.
Archy’s platform unifies scheduling, charting, billing, imaging, insurance claims, payments, payroll, and patient communications into one cloud-native system. Their Archy Intelligence suite packs serious AI muscle: Archy Verify handles insurance checks, Archy Revenue automates billing and collections, Archy Scribe turns voice into clinical notes in real time, Archy Connect keeps patients engaged, and Archy Insight transforms data into answers you can literally talk to. When you blend HIPAA compliance, SOC2 Type II security, and automatic updates, you get a practice that runs smoother than a crown fitting on the first try.
The numbers don’t lie. Archy now processes over $100M in annual payments, 300% year-over-year growth, serving 2.5M patients and managing 35M X-rays across 45 states. One client, DeChellis & Stonestreet Dentistry, dumped 35 years of Dentrix and 17 years of Dexis, saving $50K in year one and 80 hours a month in admin work. That’s not disruption, it’s liberation.
With this Series B, Archy’s stacking up to go global in 2026, scaling engineering, AI, and GTM teams to meet exploding demand. The dental software market hit $2.6B in 2023 and is heading north of $5B by 2030. And here’s the wild stat: 75% of dental practices still run on servers older than TikTok’s user base. Archy’s gunning to change that, turning outdated workflows into intelligent automation.
Credit to the founders and every investor who saw the bigger bite. This isn’t just about managing dental practices, it’s about redefining the rhythm of an entire industry, one smart system at a time.
