Tempus AI's Data Business Is Expanding and Adding to Revenues: Here's How

Tempus AI’s TEM third-quarter 2025 results highlight the growing strategic importance of its Insights and Data & Services business, which is emerging as a high-margin and scalable revenue stream beyond traditional genomic testing. Data and Services revenues totaled $81.3 million, up 26.1% year over year, driven primarily by Insights (data licensing). 

Insights bookings reached $150 million across multiple new contracts, reflecting 37.6% year-over-year revenue growth, building on the multi-hundred-million-dollar foundation model deal signed earlier this year. This momentum underscores how Tempus is monetizing its large multimodal dataset spanning genomic, clinical, imaging, and digital pathology information alongside AI-powered insights and algorithms.

The company further strengthened its data and AI capabilities through the acquisition of Paige, an AI leader in digital pathology, enhancing its dataset, technical expertise and footprint in this emerging field. It also expanded its collaboration with Northwestern Medicine to integrate David, Tempus’ generative AI clinical co-pilot, into the EHR platform to streamline and transform clinical workflows. Additionally, Tempus Next expanded into breast cancer, offering real-time insights to help clinicians close guideline-based care gaps, underscoring continued innovation across the Data and Services segment.

While long-term success hinges on retention, contract expansion, and broader adoption of AI-driven tools in clinical workflows, the trajectory suggests that the company is evolving from a testing-focused diagnostics company into a differentiated data-driven precision medicine platform with expanding recurring revenue potential.
