# Diagnace

*/Startups/Diagnace*

## Startup Overview

This system ingests continuous patient telemetry and cross-references biometric data directly against standard clinical diagnostic pathways. By analyzing real-time vitals, the software identifies physiological deviations and maps them to specific disease presentations before a patient verbally reports symptoms.

Care teams managing high-risk and post-acute populations face critical delays when waiting for patients to navigate subjective symptom checkers or when relying on manual clinical triage. Relying on patient inputs limits early intervention and masks underlying deterioration. The software eliminates this visibility gap by converting raw, continuous device data into actionable diagnostic indicators.

While consumer-facing alternatives like Ada Health and Babylon Symptom Checker depend on probabilistic guessing and manual user input, this architecture operates entirely on objective telemetry. Fully EHR-integrated, it applies deterministic clinical reasoning to trigger automated clinical workflows, routing patients to precise care pathways based strictly on verifiable physiological markers.

## Startup Offer

**Proof**:
- Targeting a 40% reduction in manual triage review times for monitored wards.
- Aiming to flag clinical deterioration 90 minutes faster than standard chart reviews.
- Targeting 100% adherence to deterministic clinical guidelines without generative AI drift.
**Tiers**:
- Name: Standard Telemetry Engine · Price: ~$25–$50 per monitored bed/month · Inclusions: Continuous mapping of raw telemetry feeds against deterministic triage logic, delivering prioritized clinical alerts to a standalone dashboard.
- Name: Integrated Clinical Pathway · Price: ~$75–$130 per monitored bed/month · Inclusions: Multi-stream telemetry contextualization designed to write automated diagnostic drafts directly into native EHR decision support fields.
**Guarantee**: If the triage engine generates an alert that violates the established deterministic clinical pathway, Diagnace waives the telemetry processing fee for that patient bed for the month.
**Business Function**: ProvideService
**Objection Handlers**:
- Objection: AI diagnostics create medical liability risks due to hallucinations. Rebuttal: Diagnace relies strictly on deterministic reasoning against rigid clinical pathways, completely eliminating generative medical hypotheses.
- Objection: Our nursing staff already suffers from severe alarm fatigue. Rebuttal: The engine suppresses isolated raw telemetry signals, only generating an alert when the data contradicts the patient's specific diagnostic pathway.
- Objection: Major EHRs already have basic rule logic built in. Rebuttal: Native EHR rule engines cannot process continuous, high-frequency telemetry streams in real time the way Diagnace does.
- Objection: IT cannot support a heavy proprietary hospital integration right now. Rebuttal: Diagnace is designed to connect via standard HL7 and FHIR endpoints to bypass custom middleware.

## Startup Buyer Chain

**Chain**: Diagnace → Chief Medical Information Officer → Clinical Triage Team → Monitored Patient
**Gtm Motion**: Acquires initial health system contracts through direct enterprise sales targeting Chief Medical Information Officers with departmental pilot programs for remote patient monitoring. Expands contract value by moving from single-ward deployments to system-wide EHR integrations across multiple clinical specialties.
**Agent Channel**: Designed to publish a structured capability feed in AI agent tool registries (such as the OpenAI Custom Actions directory), enabling authorized clinical-assistant agents to discover and invoke deterministic diagnostic pathways for telemetry data.
**Primary Channel**: Intended listing in major EHR provider marketplaces (such as the Epic Showroom and Oracle Health App Gallery), discovered when hospital IT administrators search for deterministic telemetry triage connectors.

## Startup Proof Points

_Illustrative — target and order-of-magnitude estimate figures, not an achieved track record (this Thing is concept-stage)._

**Pilot Goals**:
- A 30-day, 50-bed deployment in a cardiac step-down unit to prove the system correctly suppresses non-actionable telemetry noise while identifying 100% of pathway-violating events.
- A 60-day integration pilot with a native EHR system via FHIR endpoints to validate that automated diagnostic drafts populate decision support fields with zero data latency.
**Target Metrics**:
- Target: 40% reduction in manual triage review times for monitored wards.
- Target: 90-minute acceleration in flagging clinical deterioration compared to standard chart reviews.
- Target: 100% alert adherence to established deterministic clinical guidelines without generative drift.
- Target: zero telemetry processing fees waived under the deterministic clinical pathway guarantee.
**Target Case Studies**:
- A regional acute care hospital with 200+ beds implementing the Standard Telemetry Engine to suppress isolated raw telemetry signals, aiming to demonstrate a quantifiable drop in nursing alarm fatigue.
- A multi-site health system ICU step-down unit deploying the Integrated Clinical Pathway tier, targeting a measurable decrease in time-to-intervention by writing diagnostic drafts directly to native EHR decision support fields.
**Testimonial Targets**:
- Chief Nursing Officer expressing relief that the engine suppresses isolated signals and only alerts when patient data contradicts the diagnostic pathway, directly reducing alarm fatigue.
- Chief Medical Information Officer validating that the strict deterministic reasoning eliminates generative medical hypotheses and aligns perfectly with hospital liability protocols.
- Clinical IT Director praising the ability to connect continuous telemetry streams via standard HL7 and FHIR endpoints without requiring custom middleware build-outs.

## Startup Top Risks

**Risks**:

- Severity: high · Description: Major EHR vendors like Epic and Cerner restrict real-time telemetry API write access or impose prohibitive data integration fees. · Mitigation Status: unmitigated
- Severity: high · Description: High-frequency telemetry data generates excessive false-positive alerts that trigger physician alert fatigue and lead to hospital contract cancellations. · Mitigation Status: in-progress
- Severity: moderate · Description: Hospital IT security compliance teams block the external cloud ingestion of high-bandwidth continuous patient biometric data. · Mitigation Status: unmitigated

## Startup Story Brand

**Hero**:
- **Need**: to be a proactive leader whose team prevents crises rather than just reacting to alarms
- **Want**: to detect patient clinical deterioration before it triggers a Code Blue
- **Identity**: a nurse manager at a high-acuity medical ward
**Plan**:
- Step: Connect · Detail: Link your continuous telemetry feeds to the engine via standard HL7 or FHIR endpoints without custom middleware.
- Step: Review · Detail: Monitor the prioritized clinical alerts that only fire when patient data violates specific diagnostic pathways.
- Step: Intervene · Detail: Act on early-warning drafts written into your EHR decision support to stay ahead of patient decline.
