Built in an optometry practice.
Doctora began with one doctor finishing charts after the last patient left. We build it so the chart is done when the exam is.
Home for dinner.
Doctora started in a working optometry practice. Dr. Cynthia Ragland, our founding optometrist and the mother of our CEO, Beau Ragland, has practiced optometry for more than two decades. The exams were never the slow part. The clicking and typing that came after them were, and they kept her finishing charts after the last patient left.
Doctora was founded in 2025 to take that work off the doctor. It listens to the exam, drafts the chart in the practice’s own fields, and leaves the last word to the doctor.
We build for optometry and the EHRs optometry uses, so the chart reads the way you would write it and lands where you would look for it. Less clicking, more time for the next patient.

The people behind it.

How we build.
- The doctor confirms everything
- Doctora drafts and the doctor decides. Every field is read and confirmed before it goes to the EHR.
- Patient data stays with the practice
- Patient data is used for the practice it came from and nothing else. It is never used to train AI models for anyone else.
- Built for optometry
- The exam vocabulary, the codes and the EHRs are optometry’s. We do not adapt a general scribe to eye care.
