Noteless has developed a SaaS platform that leverages artificial intelligence to simplify medical note-taking for doctors. The tool captures conversations between doctors and patients, filters out irrelevant information, and generates finalized medical notes—saving doctors considerable time in front of the computer.
"We conducted studies at Haukeland Hospital, which showed that 60% of doctors spend more than half their day writing medical notes. That’s a lot of time that can now be used for other things," says Co-founder and CEO William Vossgård to TV2.
Just one year after its launch, Noteless had already secured 300 general practitioners as customers across Norway, achieved a monthly revenue of around NOK 2 million, and grown to a team of 14 employees. The company has also attracted investments from firms such as Farvatn Venture Capital, Futurum Ventures, and Tidligfasefond Vestland.
"We work around the clock, and we reinvest all the money we earn back into the company. Over the past few months, we've been hiring as fast as we can, and we will continue doing so moving forward," says Vossgård.
In October 2024, Noteless was named "Health Startup of the Year" at the Health Technology Conference, recognizing the company’s innovative contributions to the healthcare sector. They have also received support from the Norwegian Research Council’s SkatteFUNN scheme and have partnered with several healthcare organizations. In January 2025, they launched a pilot project with Helse Møre og Romsdal HF.
"We look forward to exploring how AI can support clinical teams by reducing administrative tasks. By testing Noteless in our psychiatric and child and adolescent psychiatric clinics in Molde, Ålesund, and Kristiansund, we aim to assess how this technology can enhance workflow efficiency and patient-centered care," says Odd Arne Maridal, CIO at HMR.

Since 2024, Noteless has been a member of the Aleap incubator, located in Oslo Science Park.
"The innovation environment at Aleap has been invaluable to us. Being able to share experiences with other health entrepreneurs and gain access to mentors has helped us grow faster. Even though we are moving out of Aleap’s premises, we remain members and will continue to be part of the community—we’re just moving one floor up," says Vossgård.
Aksel Tunold, CEO of Aleap, is impressed by Noteless’ growth:
"We have closely followed Noteless' journey, and it has been inspiring to see how quickly they have grown. Their innovative use of AI highlights the crucial role of technology in the future of healthcare. They are also a great example of how Norwegian health startups can scale with the right support and a strong network. We look forward to seeing them expand further."

Artificial intelligence is making its way into the healthcare sector and can help solve the complex scheduling of shifts. The Aleap company Synplan offers an innovative solution that not only makes the job easier, but also improves working conditions and saves resources. It is now being tested at the renowned Mayo Clinic in the US.
