We'll have a booth as well. Come see a demo and chat with Josh and Emma, our co-founders!

Loved the recent @JayaGup10 @FoundationCap “context graphs” post. The core idea is that AI can build systems of record for decisions, not just objects. Things like exceptions, overrides, and precedent stitched across entities + time. foundationcapital.com/context-graphs… We see this all the time in healthcare. “Why this med?”, “Why now?”, “What changed?” For over a year, we’ve been building toward this at @ObtegoHealth. Our demos focus on patient-understandable communication, but under the hood we’ve been prototyping graphs for entities + time + provenance. If you’re building graphs + agentic workflows (esp. in regulated domains), I’d love to compare notes.

Medical records (like discharge summaries) are some of the most important documents about your health… and they’re basically unreadable. So we built a better way. Obtego turns them into something you can actually use: - Plain-English key takeaways - Tap-to-explore terms (diagnoses, meds, observations), including 3D visuals + graphs - Chat (text/voice) for quick answers - Snips: save questions in context for your next appointment Let us know what you think here or in DMs!

Great Q&A at @MATTERhealth with @AmerMedicalAssn CEO John Whyte. Excited for the AMA to take a more active role in cultivating new tech!

A quick example of what we want to improve at Obtego: There’s important info buried in one key sentence of this wall of text (discharge report). It covers the main finding from the patient’s last visit and relates to why they’re prescribed a new medication. Even with it highlighted, you couldn’t glean this information as written. Now check out our version: this one sentence tells us in plain English what’s wrong and how it relates to our medication. It’s easier to understand, provides more relevant info, and you can explore by clicking the key phrases. We’re working on charts, images, video, and knowledge graphs too for an even more engaging experience. We start by conveying the most critical info in the simplest way, then let you dig deeper as desired.

In the past two years, my brother and two of my grandparents died. Before this, I hadn’t interacted much with the medical system. I’m disappointed. Among these disappointments, a simple one stood out: poor communication. Poor communication among hospital staff and poor communication with us as patients and family members. The medical system’s communication model was designed for patients without information, whereas today’s patients are informed participants facing a comprehension gap. They have information but lack context to integrate it with clinical expertise. Physicians feel this pain too. They hate being constrained by administration and technology designed for billing rather than care. That’s on top of the realities of physician shortages and an increasing aging population. This environment creates anxiety and erodes trust. We need communication that makes clinician reasoning transparent and explorable to promote a shared understanding between patients and providers. Instead of short appointments, sparse notes or dense printouts, I started @ObtegoHealth to make medical reasoning explorable and personalized so patients can trust through understanding. Importantly, this culminates in actions you can take to improve your health or, in less desirable circumstances, stay stable. Documents like discharge summaries and progress reports become interactive with knowledge graphs, images, charts, and 3D graphics that allow you to query and dig deeper. Exploring your or your loved one’s health should be informative and engaging. So I ask you, what does your ideal patient experience look like? DM me or comment about your experience and what you wish had gone better. Unveiling soon.
