From evaluating tools
to putting them into use.

Since 2018, our work has grown from assessing digital health tools to helping organizations put evaluated resources into use.

Assess a digital health technology

Investment funds and investors can also use our assessment expertise before an investment or to review a portfolio technology.

A focused vetting mandate examines clinical relevance, available evidence and adoption conditions, documenting strengths, evidence gaps and questions to investigate.

Scope, confidentiality and any conflicts of interest are addressed before a mandate begins.

Support for our development

A pre-seed round in 2022, followed by an extension in 2024, supported the development of our platform.
