Our passion for health & wellness
END TO END
Plan a strategic product roadmap, approach, and feature-set. Through user and market research, we identify and validate the value your product delivers to users, and develop a well-thought-out plan. We also address technical and legal challenges to ensure a smooth journey from concept to market.
DATA ENGINEEIRNING
Healthcare data lives in fragmented EHRs, billing systems, and third-party tools, and most pipelines aren't built for PHI. We design compliant, production-grade data platforms on Databricks and Snowflake, with governance built in from the first ingestion.
STAFF AUGMENTATION
Expand your team with our top-tier talent. Our experienced professionals bring both technical and business insights to your projects, speeding up onboarding and providing effective solutions to healthcare challenges.
AI HEALTHCARE DEVELOPMENT
Build AI features and workflows that fit how your healthcare product runs. Through workflow mapping and ROI modeling, we identify where AI belongs and prototype it before it reaches production. We also address HIPAA compliance and clinician adoption to ensure every feature earns real trust.
forward deploy engineering
Turning AI's promise into production healthcare software takes more than a pilot. We embed forward deployed engineers inside your team to own integrations, AI workflows, and compliance from design through go-live.
NTEGRATIONS & INTEROPERABILITY
Enhance your EHR systems with our integration expertise. We use the SMART on FHIR protocol to integrate third-party products within the same application window, ensuring compliance with HIPAA, GDPR, HITRUST, and SOC2 standards.

Frequently Asked Questions
Learn everything about us and the way we work
- Light-it specializes only in healthcare, so our engineers, designers, and product strategists understand clinical workflows, regulatory pressure, and patient experience from day one. We pair multidisciplinary teams with embedded HIPAA, HITRUST, and SOC 2 expertise across 6+ years and 76+ shipped products, helping CTOs and founders ship regulated software without trading off compliance or care quality.
- Generalist agencies treat compliance as a final-stage checklist. Light-it treats it as an architectural foundation. Our teams cover product strategy, engineering, design, data engineering, and EHR integration under one roof, and we apply that depth exclusively to healthcare. The result: fewer rework cycles, faster time to HITRUST readiness, and lower compliance risk on every release.
Light-it has shipped 76+ products for 38+ healthcare clients across digital therapeutics, SaMD, telemedicine, EHR systems, and remote patient monitoring. Every project is built to HIPAA, HITRUST, GDPR, and SOC 2 standards from inception, with security and governance embedded as foundational architecture rather than features added at the end.
Healthcare software fails when clinical reality, regulatory pressure, and product velocity pull in different directions. Light-it builds for that exact tension: our engineers integrate via SMART on FHIR, our designers map workflows around real clinical use, and our product strategists align decisions with HIPAA, FDA, and SOC 2 realities before a line of code is written.
Companies working with Light-it ship clinical, operational, and patient-facing platforms faster, with compliance built in and care continuity protected during EHR migrations and integrations. Recent results include PsychNow (multimodal AI for mental health), Mavida Health (maternal mental health platform), the Oxford Mindfulness Foundation app, and a custom patient portal for Fridays' virtual weight-loss program.
