Stepful is an online platform founded in 2021 that trains adults with high school diplomas for entry-level healthcare positions (such as Medical Assistant, Pharmacy Technician, Patient Care Technician) within a few months. The platform combines live instruction with AI-powered, personalized learning modules, coaching, and job placement. Following a Series B funding round in 2024, the company secured a Series C round of $55 million USD in 2026 to expand AI capabilities and partnerships with hospitals. Stepful positions itself as a "school-as-a-service" for healthcare systems, rather than a traditional software tool with open API or developer integrations.
