At the intersection of healthcare and cloud computing, Waystar Holding Corp. (NASDAQ: WAY) has built a reputation for its powerful software-as-a-service (SaaS), helping to integrate payer networks with electronic health records. However, as the AI and cloud field has become increasingly crowded overall in recent years, Waystar faces increasing competition from companies offering similar or related tools, such as Phreesia Inc. (NYSE: PHR) and Doximity Inc. (NYSE: DOCS).
Waystar shares are down some 40% in the last 12 months, but analysts are still predicting growth across multiple metrics, including earnings and share price. A closer comparison of Waystar against these rivals—one larger and one smaller, by market capitalization—may help investors to determine how best to capitalize on the rush to bring AI and cloud technology into the healthcare software space.
