Malaysia-based AI healthcare firm Valiance Health receives investment from Gobi Partners

Through its SuperSeed II Fund, Gobi Partners has spearheaded an undisclosed pre-seed investment in Valiance Health Inc., an artificial intelligence (AI) healthcare startup based in Malaysia that is developing the nation’s first extensive standardized healthcare data platform.

Jati Growth and Artem Ventures participated in the round, according to a statement released by Gobi on Wednesday.

The investment broadens Gobi’s focus on data-led, impact-driven innovation and represents the company’s first healthcare AI investment in Southeast Asia.

The money will be used to expand the team, improve pipelines for AI-driven standardization, enhance system integrations, and expand partnerships with administrators and insurers.

“Malaysia’s healthcare system is at an inflection point. Valiance is addressing the core data problem that has long slowed the shift to value-based care,

“The team is building the foundational infrastructure the healthcare ecosystem needs, not just analytics dashboards,” said Jamaludin Bujang, managing partner at Gobi Partners.

Valiance concentrates on the healthcare data infrastructure layer rather than creating another application that interacts with hospitals.

Its platform collects clinical, operational, and financial data from hospital systems, cleans, maps, and standardizes it using AI-driven pipelines to create a model that is accepted around the world.

A single data repository that supports analytics, clinical benchmarking, automation, regulatory reporting, and operational insights is the end result.

Valiance’s analytics interface, Healthproximate, is one application that was developed using this framework.

It helps hospitals to find operational bottlenecks, analyze cost structures, and spot trends.

The company’s primary value is found in its underlying data infrastructure, which supports a wider range of solutions for hospitals, insurers, and policymakers, even though Healthproximate is the first application layer.

“Value-based healthcare has been discussed in Malaysia for years, but it cannot exist without trustworthy, standardized data,

“Hospitals are not short of data. They are overwhelmed by fragmented systems, inconsistent coding, and manual processes that prevent meaningful analysis at scale,” said Dr Lutfi Fadil, Chief Executive Officer of Valiance Health.

He claims that Valiance is constructing the missing framework—a unified data layer that enables providers and payors to comprehend costs, results, and operations in a common language.

“With Gobi Partners’ support, we aim to help Malaysia move from isolated reporting towards evidence-led, transparent, and value-driven healthcare,” he added.
