Skievaski referenced Epic, the electronic medical records company, as the dominant incumbent in the provider workflow space, noting that Epic employs approximately 10,000 people and is led by founder and CEO Judy Faulkner, whom Skievaski described as a self-made billionaire running a private company. This figure was stated by Skievaski as a reference point and is not a company-confirmed figure from Epic itself.
Skievaski did not name direct API or integration competitors by name during the interview. He described the broader competitive dynamic as one in which health systems and software developers have historically relied on custom, project-by-project integrations, and that Redox's value proposition is replacing that fragmented approach with a standardized cloud-based engine. An early acquisition offer from an unnamed healthcare-space company was declined because Skievaski and his co-founders believed the acquirer would not be able to solve the integration problem as quickly as Redox could independently.
