Comparing Hyro and interface.ai? Both are AI Agents & Chatbots, Contact Center & CCaaS and Voice & Phone AI tools in the directory, which is why buyers put them on the same shortlist. Below is a side-by-side look at how they price, what they integrate with, and when each is the better fit, so you can pick on the facts rather than either vendor's own sales page.

Hyro builds AI agents for healthcare, aimed at the call centers and websites of hospitals and health systems. Its voice and chat agents run over phone, web, SMS, and mobile apps and handle patient facing drudgery: scheduling and rescheduling appointments, prescription refills, MyChart troubleshooting, billing questions, and call routing, with escalation to humans when needed. Deep EHR integration, especially with Epic, is the differentiator, letting agents complete tasks end to end instead of reading FAQs aloud. In June 2026 it launched Care Intelligence, an analytics layer that turns millions of agent conversations into patient access insights for operations teams.
Israel Krush and Rom Cohen founded Hyro in 2018 during their final semester at Cornell Tech, and Weill Cornell Medicine became both first customer and investor. The company now serves around 45 large healthcare organizations, including Intermountain Health, Baptist Health, Hackensack Meridian Health, and Bon Secours Mercy Health. It has raised $95 million in total, most recently a $45 million growth round in October 2025 led by Healthier Capital, the fund of former One Medical CEO Amir Dan Rubin, with Norwest and Define Ventures participating. A May 2026 Five9 partnership cut contact center integration to about an hour.
Hyro does not publish pricing. Contracts are custom, scoped to call volume, channels, and integration depth, and its own 2026 benchmark report frames value in ROI terms, claiming deep EHR integrations unlock over $1 million in returns. Expect an enterprise sales process with security and HIPAA review, not a signup page.
Choose Hyro if you are a health system, especially an Epic shop, drowning in patient access calls, and you want a vendor that lives entirely in healthcare, speaks HIPAA natively, and plugs into your existing contact center stack. If you are outside healthcare it is simply not for you, and small clinics without real call center volume will struggle to justify the enterprise motion.

interface.ai sells AI agents purpose built for credit unions and community banks. Its BankGPT platform, launched in late 2025, spans Agentic Voice AI that answers member phone calls, Agentic Chat AI for web and mobile, and Agentic Employee AI that assists staff, all wired into core banking systems so the agents can actually do things: check balances, move money, manage cards, take loan payments. The agents authenticate members and complete transactions rather than just deflecting calls. In 2026 it added Smart Collections, a multi channel collections agent, and a bundled CCaaS offering through the Telarus partner program.
Srinivas Njay and Bruce Kim launched interface.ai in 2019, and Njay's origin story is genuinely charming: his father ran a credit union in India, and the company was built around institutions of that scale. It bootstrapped to more than 100 financial institution customers and tens of millions in annual recurring revenue before taking its first outside money in October 2024, a $30 million round led by Avataar Venture Partners, of which $20 million was equity and $10 million debt. The company says it now handles over 1.5 million conversations a day.
Pricing is entirely quote based. Nothing is published on the site, no tiers, no starting numbers, and deals are scoped to institution size, channels, and integrations. The company markets ROI cases rather than price points, which is common in this space but means you should benchmark against rivals like Posh AI, Glia, and Eltropy, and ask hard questions about one time implementation fees on top of the subscription.
Choose interface.ai if you run a credit union or community bank and want deep, prebuilt core integrations, it claims more than 40 Jack Henry implementations alone, plus voice as the flagship channel. It is a poor fit outside banking, and larger banks with in house AI teams or non financial businesses should look at horizontal platforms instead.
