The premise of Corti

• Medical expertise is hard to acquire, and Corti can help fill the gaps
• It is a voice-based digital system that curates data from millions of previous emergency calls
• It distributes the expertise of medical professionals beyond their reach

“Corti will listen in when a patient and medical professional are conversing and try to help the medical professional come up with the most plausible course of action to triage the patient.”

The origins of Corti

• Founded in 2016
• Andreas recognised that medical professionals could feel overwhelmed by the limits of their medical knowledge
• There is a lot of pressure on medical professionals to detect, diagnose, and treat patients based on one conversation with them

“Illness has always been a big part of my life and learning to cope with it. The importance of having access to support and advice and expertise is something that is possible.”

Corti’s data

• Currently, 7 emergency organisations are using Corti’s service
• Data has been collected from over 7 million emergency calls
• Corti provides a multi-dimensional platform that will help medical professionals augment their opinions with previous similar patient conversations
• With follow-up data, Corti can offer probabilities for diagnosis and treatment

“We can reduce the number of undetected cardiac arrests by up to 44%”

How Corti will help further healthcare

• Healthcare must stand the test of time
• Start from high-acuity conversations in emergency care then move into broader aspects such as triage
• Corti’s employees truly believe in the mission of making second opinions accessible to everyone

“Corti can pattern-track what is said and correlate it to clean data.”
