Know what you’ll monitor before your next model goes live.

We make clinical AI safer and easier to monitor.

So you can catch problems early and act with confidence.

How safeAI works: inputs (data, models, clinical context, risk priorities, evidence, policies and thresholds, and who to monitor) pass through safeAI across language, voice, image and structured data, producing evaluation, monitoring, safety signals, subgroup insights, alerts, migration analysis and governance evidence for doctors, auditors and governance teams.

Inputs

  • Data
  • Models
  • Clinical context
  • Risk priorities
  • Evidence
  • Policies & thresholds
  • Who to monitor
  • Language
  • Voice
  • Image
  • Structured data

Outputs

  • Evaluation
  • Monitoring
  • Safety signals
  • Subgroup insights
  • Alerts
  • Migration analysis
  • Governance evidence
  • Doctors
  • Auditors
  • Governance teams

AI failures are already clinical failures.

From guesswork to continuous assurance.

Without safeAI

Higher risk. Less visibility.

  • AI gets tested once before deployment.
  • Quality gets judged by vibe checks.
  • Generic benchmarks define AI quality.
  • Safety failures can go unnoticed.
  • Evaluations aren’t tailored to workflows.
  • Model providers become trusted sources.
  • Subgroup performance remains largely invisible.
  • Production changes rarely trigger re-evaluation.

With safeAI

Continuous insight. Greater impact.

  • AI gets continuously evaluated in production.
  • Quality reflects real-world clinical performance.
  • Hospitals define their own evaluations.
  • Safety-critical failures get actively monitored.
  • Models are tested across specific subgroups.
  • Independent engines verify evaluation evidence.
  • Drift and degradation trigger investigation.
  • Every decision creates an audit trail.

From data to safer care

A continuous loop of evaluation, monitoring, and learning — across every model, modality, and clinical use case.

Your clinical teams decide what matters.

And when something changes, they know whether it matters.

Before go-live

  1. 1

    AI proposes

    Monitor candidates, subgroups, failure classes and sampling plans.

  2. 2

    Verification checks

    Backtesting and recomputation before anything is adopted.

  3. 3

    Clinicians approve

    Approval sits with the people accountable for care.

After go-live

  1. 4

    Assess the severity

    Thresholds and risk tiers set the alert level and confidence.

  2. 5

    Route and investigate

    The right clinician, model owner or governance team gets the cases and evidence.

  3. 6

    Act and learn

    Review, hold, roll back or recalibrate. Outcomes refine future monitors.

Evaluation runs on private, institution-specific datasets and challenge sets built from your own evidence. Data never leaves your premises.

Six families of monitors.

First we evaluate and set a baseline. Then our agents continuously monitor it, as per the guidelines you set.

Illustration: each monitor family tracks a signal inside bounds set at baseline. The drift monitor moves out of bounds and is flagged for investigation.

Clinical safety is a multidisciplinary problem.

Clinicians, AI safety researchers, statisticians, engineers, governance leaders and product builders working on one problem: making clinical AI oversight scalable.
