Gathers its own context
Designed to pull priors, reports and the treatment line itself. No copy-paste, no prompts.
AI research lab
Grounded AI for oncology.
We are building toward a physician copilot for the whole cancer journey, from diagnosis to theranostics to treatment. It reads the patient's evidence like a specialist, shows where every statement comes from, and knows when to defer.
- A Liver Multiple focal lesions
- B Right lower abdomen Lesion or bowel? Flagged
- C Bladder Physiologic uptake
Why now
Answers got cheap. Reading a case did not.
Before a tumour board, someone gathers each patient's letters, results and scans by hand. In the US, PET scan volume is growing and many sites report waits of eight days or more.

Approach
Designed the way a specialist reads.
Numbers come from tools
Every measurement is designed to be computed by code, never generated.
Evidence before conclusion
Each statement is designed to link to the record, image region or paper it rests on.
Knows when it isn't sure
Below its threshold, it is designed to flag for review instead of guessing.
How the lab works
Research and product, one loop.
We build on frontier models and own the layer above them. Physician edits are designed to close the loop.

Roadmap
Deeper along the patient's journey, one stage at a time.

Now
Grounded case summaries
A research prototype designed to turn a cancer patient's records into a source-linked summary for tumour boards, with the supporting literature. Clinicians review and edit it. It does not recommend treatment.
-
Now
Imaging reasoning over time
Research on telling a real change in the cancer from measurement noise or a record error, so each new scan is read against the patient's history.
-
Next
Nuclear medicine reader
Designed to draft grounded reports for PET/CT and theranostics, for physician review.

Later · gated
Oncology copilot
Support for the treating team across diagnosis, theranostics and treatment.

Later · gated
Outcome-linked patient model
Aims to link imaging to outcomes: who responds, who relapses.
Later stages are gated: they start only after earlier work has proven itself with physicians.
