Our vision

A world-class clinician in every home.

Watch V’s story

"Everyone deserves access to world-class care."

I started Sword because I felt firsthand the challenges families face when they have to help a loved one recover from an injury.

I watched as other industries leveraged technology to make amazing strides, while healthcare remained stuck in the past. I knew there had to be a better path forward—and that AI would be our greatest ally in paving it.

At Sword, we’re using AI to fundamentally reinvent how people access and receive care—in order to fulfill our mission of freeing the world from pain.

Our AI Care model combines what human clinicians and AI each do best, so that everyone, everywhere can get the clinical-grade, life-changing care they deserve.

If you feel as strongly as we do about creating a world in which every single person has equal access to world-class care, join us.

We’re just getting started.

Our Manifesto

Healthcare is fundamentally human.

At its core, it’s the business of humans helping other humans live well for as long as they can. And it’s something every single human being should have equitable access to.

So what’s to be done when systemic barriers to good health and high-quality care persist?

When factors like socioeconomic status and geography prevent people from accessing the care they need?

When cost of care and quality of care are too often accepted to be at odds with one another?

We cannot accept the status quo. We have to break down those barriers—and break the iron triangle. We must revolutionize how patients access and receive care.

This is the motive behind AI Care— To wield technology not as a means to replace or reduce the humanity of healthcare, but to amplify its impact. To lower its costs while raising the bar of its quality. To extend its reach until no one, anywhere, is left behind.

By making our clinicians superhuman, giving them the power to help far more people than they ever could without it.

By creating a world where everyone can have a world-class clinical team in their home. Ready to offer them care and compassion, wherever they are. Whenever they need it.

The DNA of AI Care is making healthcare more human.
