California-based Millie, a tech-enabled maternity and gynecology clinic, has raised $12 million in Series A funding to expand its physical and virtual care services.
The round was led by Foreground Capital, TMV, and Pivotal Ventures (Melinda French Gates’ firm), making Millie’s cap table exclusively female-led VC firms.
A Hybrid Model for Modern Maternity Care
Founded in 2022 by Anu Sharma, the startup offers a comprehensive maternity care model, combining:
- In-person clinics for maternity, gynecology, and postpartum care
- Virtual visits and AI-powered remote monitoring
- A proprietary patient app for real-time health tracking
Sharma was inspired to launch Millie after experiencing pregnancy complications in 2019. Coming from a family of doctors, she noticed critical symptoms were missed by medical staff, prompting her to create a more holistic, patient-centered maternity clinic.

Expanding Across California
With this fresh funding, the firm will:
- Expand its clinic network across California
- Advance its AI-driven patient monitoring tools
- Grow its healthcare partner ecosystem
Disrupting Women’s Healthcare
Millie competes with Diana Health and Oula, but Sharma believes its hybrid model and AI-enabled workflows set it apart.
“We blend in-person care with technology, ensuring every patient receives continuous, personalized support throughout pregnancy and beyond,” Sharma said.
With $19M raised to date, the compay is on a mission to modernize maternity care, making it more accessible, tech-driven, and patient-focused.
