Leading health systems collaborate with Amae to bring this model to their communities, including New York-Presbyterian, Cedars-Sinai, Mass General Brigham, Novant Health, and CommonSpirit Health.

What We Value

• We center care in all we do. Empathy is not a brand value. It’s how we make clinical decisions, build products, and treat each other.
• We challenge convention. The existing system is the problem. We question it, we test alternatives, and we move with urgency when something works.
• We take the work seriously, not ourselves. High standards and humanity are not in tension. We hold a hard bar for quality while leaving room for humor and levity.
• Your job isn’t done until the job is done. We close gaps, we follow through, and we don’t hide behind titles or org charts.
• We win together and fail together. We own outcomes as a team. We learn fast. We don’t do blame.
• We hustle with humility. Speed matters. So does integrity. We assume best intent and stay grounded in the mission.
