We understand and solve your key issues

We build products which are designed to solve our customers key challenges.

  • User interface design

    Poor design can make online consultation systems difficult to use for both patients and staff, which can cause low uptake. This creates barriers to accessing the services people need.

  • Practice capacity

    Practices can become overstretched by the number of patient requests they receive on a daily basis, which makes it difficult to effectively prioritise patients and deliver the service that patients require.

  • Health inequality

    Other online consultation systems lack key functionality, such as image and document uploads, 2-way messaging, language translation and video capability. These features help break down the barriers to health services, creating inequalities.

  • Lack of Integration

    Poor integration between online consultation systems and clinical systems means consultation reports must be manually filed. This creates inefficiency and opens up processes to manual error.
