Arlo is the clinical action API for AI health platforms. It gives your AI its own clinicians, like a hospital does for patients.
from arlo import Arlo
client = Arlo()
encounter = client.encounters.create(
patient_state="CO",
type="prescription",
condition="strep_throat"
)Your platform triages, educates, and recommends. Arlo handles the part that requires a license.
Create, manage, and resolve clinical encounters entirely via API.
Add the Arlo MCP server to your agent and it gets native access to create encounters, check status, and receive results. No SDK required.

)Your AI identifies a clinical need. POST to /encounters with patient state, condition, and encounter type.
We match to a licensed clinician in the patient's state. Credentialed, malpractice-covered, and ready.
Prescription sent. Lab ordered. Referral placed. You get a webhook with the result.

}States covered through our PC network.
Median encounter resolution time.
Clinician review on every encounter. No exceptions.
Lines of healthcare compliance code you write.
Your AI can assess symptoms, coach patients through chronic conditions, and generate care plans. Then someone needs a prescription. Or a lab order. Or a referral.
That's where your product breaks.
Not because your AI isn't good enough. Because healthcare requires a licensed human to act. Every state has different rules. Every action needs credentials, malpractice coverage, and compliance infrastructure you don't have.
Arlo is that infrastructure. One API. Licensed clinicians in all 50 states. Prescriptions, labs, and referrals — completed and returned to your platform via webhook.
You build the AI. We handle the license.
End-to-end encryption, BAAs, audit trails. Already certified.
Corporate Practice of Medicine compliance in every state through our PC network. You don't need your own medical corporation.
Colorado SB 24-205, informed consent, AI audit trails. Documented and maintained.
Clinical Decision Support exemption under 21st Century Cures Act. Documented and on file.
Every clinician carries malpractice insurance. AI-assisted workflows included.
We track registration requirements across every state so you don't have to.
Your AI assesses, then hands off to Arlo when a prescription, lab, or referral is needed. The patient never leaves your app.
Chronic condition management that can actually act — refill a prescription, order bloodwork, adjust a care plan.
Parents get answers from your AI and treatment from our clinicians. Text-based, no waiting rooms.
Your agent identifies a clinical need, calls our API, and resolves it. No human in your loop. Licensed human in ours.
For startups validating clinical workflows.
For platforms with production traffic.
For organizations with complex requirements.
No. Arlo operates through its own Professional Corporation (PC) network, which provides Corporate Practice of Medicine (CPOM) compliance in all 50 states. You integrate via API — we handle the legal entity structure.
Every clinician in the Arlo network carries their own malpractice insurance that covers AI-assisted clinical workflows. You don't need to procure separate coverage for encounters processed through our API.
All 50 US states plus Washington, D.C. Our PC network maintains active licenses and telehealth registrations in every jurisdiction. When you POST an encounter with a patient state, we route to a clinician licensed there.
Median resolution time is under 2 hours. Urgent encounters are prioritized. You receive a webhook when the clinician completes their review and takes action.
Yes. End-to-end encryption, signed BAAs, full audit trails, and SOC 2 compliance. We execute a Business Associate Agreement with every customer before processing PHI.
Yes. Arlo works via REST API, Python SDK, or MCP server. If your agent can make HTTP requests or connect to an MCP server, it can use Arlo. We support Cursor, Claude Code, and any MCP-compatible tool.
If a clinician determines the encounter requires in-person care or falls outside telehealth scope, the encounter is returned with a status of declined and a reason code. You're not charged for declined encounters.
One API to prescribe, order labs, and refer patients. In all 50 states. With full compliance.
