Navina, the leading AI-powered clinical intelligence platform for value-based care, today announced it has been named a Gold Stevie® Award winner in the AI in Healthcare Achievement category in the 24th Annual American Business Awards® – marking the company's second consecutive Gold Stevie win in the category. The American Business Awards are the U.S.A.’s premier business awards program. All organizations operating in the U.S.A. are eligible to submit nominations – public and private, for-profit and non-profit, large and small.
The recognition caps a year of rapid scale for Navina. In the past twelve months, the company expanded its clinical AI copilot to support end-to-end workflows spanning pre-visit chart review, in-visit ambient note generation, and audit-ready documentation, secured independent clinical validation through Phyx Primary Care, crossed 20,000 active clinicians and care team members across more than 1,300 clinics, and closed a $55 million Series C. Underpinning that growth is a metric rarely seen in healthcare software: an 86% weekly active usage rate, with clinicians citing high trust in the copilot's recommendations in daily practice.
"A lot of healthcare AI is impressive in a demo and invisible in a clinic,” said Ronen Lavi, co-founder and CEO of Navina. “We built Navina on the belief that clinical intelligence only counts when clinicians actually rely on it – in the exam room, under time pressure, with a real patient in front of them. This recognition is a meaningful marker on that path, but the real validation is the 20,000 clinicians and care team members who've made Navina part of their daily workflow."
Stevie Award judges highlighted Navina’s ability to drive measurable improvements in both patient outcomes and financial performance, while also addressing one of healthcare’s most urgent challenges – clinician burnout. Judges specifically noted Navina’s differentiation as a true clinical copilot, moving beyond static insights to support proactive care throughout the patient encounter.
More than 250 professionals worldwide participated in the judging process to select this year’s Stevie Award winners.
“Organizations across the United States continue to set a high standard for innovation and performance,” said Stevie Awards President Maggie Miller. “The breadth and quality of nominations submitted to the 2026 American Business Awards reflect a dynamic and competitive business environment, where organizations are finding new ways to drive growth, deliver value, and make an impact. We congratulate all of this year’s Stevie Award winners and look forward to celebrating their accomplishments at our June 9 awards ceremony in New York.”
Nicknamed the Stevies for the Greek word meaning “crowned,” the awards will be presented to winners at a gala ceremony at the Marriott Marquis Hotel in New York on Tuesday, June 9. Tickets are now on sale.
