Health AI has a last-mile problem.

Models are getting smarter. Products are getting funded. Adoption rates stay flat because most teams skip the hardest part: making it work in the workflow, with real clinicians, under real conditions. That is the gap we fill.

What you get

  • Workflow stress-testing under real ED constraints: overload, handoffs, alert fatigue, and time pressure
  • Use-case triage to separate high-adoption opportunities from low-yield ideas
  • Clinical UX review from active emergency physicians
  • Adoption and change strategy for frontline teams
  • Regulatory and safety readiness for governance, bias, and compliance pathways

What you don't need us for

  • Model training or fine-tuning
  • Data pipeline engineering
  • Custom software development
  • Cloud architecture implementation
  • EHR integration engineering
