Datamonk, an agentic AI-powered platform for automating medical imaging data migrations, has raised $1.9 million in pre-seed funding to tackle one of healthcare IT’s most persistent challenges: moving and cleaning decades of imaging data. The round was led by Healthy.Capital and Nina Capital, with notable angel investors including Jeroen Tas, former Chief Innovation & Strategy Officer at Philips, and Harm-Jan Wessels, serial healthcare entrepreneur. Early support also came from Antler and Rabobank.
Hospitals and imaging providers often store millions of X-rays, CT scans, and MRIs in Picture Archiving and Communication Systems (PACS). Migrating this data to modern systems or the cloud has traditionally been slow, costly, and labor-intensive, often requiring over a year to complete.
Agentic AI for Faster, Cleaner Migrations
Datamonk’s platform leverages agentic AI to automate these migrations while improving data quality. Its software agents detect and correct metadata errors, standardize study naming, and validate integrity during the transfer process. Hospitals can go live five to ten times faster, dramatically reducing manual effort and migration costs.
“Clean and connected data is the foundation for modern healthcare, from clinical decisions to AI deployment,” said Jaap Gielink, CEO and co-founder of Datamonk. “We don’t just move imaging data—we make it usable and reliable for clinical workflows, research, and innovation.”
Expert-Backed Solution
Investors see Datamonk as addressing a critical healthcare bottleneck. Jeroen Tas added, “Access to integrated diagnostic data is critical, but migrations have been a showstopper. Datamonk brings a rare mix of healthcare, data, and AI expertise to solve this at scale.”
Marta G. Zanchi of Nina Capital highlighted the technical challenge: “Imaging data is one of the most complex areas of healthcare IT. Datamonk’s use of agentic AI offers scalable standardization and migration, laying the foundation for interoperability and innovation.”
Douwe Jippes of Healthy.Capital noted, “Datamonk is helping keep radiology affordable and accessible while powering healthcare with clean, connected data.”
Founded by Jaap Gielink, Jai Bhatia (co-founder of Viewics Inc., acquired by Roche Diagnostics), and Matthew Condron (former CTO of DesAcc), Datamonk combines expertise in healthcare data, cloud technologies, and AI to build a modern data layer for hospitals and imaging providers.
With funding secured, Datamonk plans to accelerate platform development, enhance its AI capabilities, and expand its team, helping healthcare organizations migrate imaging data faster, cleaner, and more efficiently than ever before.
