While traditional medical AI has focused on "diagnostic support" and "operational efficiency," these alone have not led to fundamental solutions for the challenges faced on the ground. ■ Solution - The New Concept of Medical Loop "Medical Loop" is an AI function designed as a cycle (Loop) that "accumulates → structures → reuses" all information generated during medical practice. ■ Main Features ・Clinical Guideline Loop Presents reliable medical information based on the content and context of the consultation. Supports healthcare professionals' decision-making, enhancing the quality and speed of care.

・Chat Hippo (In-hospital AI Staff Officer) Acts as a partner for healthcare professionals, available anytime to consult on questions related to clinical practice and operations. Operates within the hospital's secure environment, and data is not used for external learning.

・Drive Loop (Medical Knowledge Circulation Platform) A knowledge base that accumulates and shares insights generated within the hospital, feeding them back into future medical practice. Supports the improvement of medical quality and organizational learning.

Concept - Human in the Loop The core philosophy of this product is "Human in the Loop (AI centered on humans)".
