● Why we share this dream
"The documentation never ends. The next patient is already waiting. Yet, I must keep writing."
During nights in the emergency room, Representative Suguru Hirayama has experienced this moment time and time again. It takes about 20 minutes to complete the medical records for a single patient. During that time, the next patient brought in by ambulance must wait. By the time the documentation is finished, the energy to face the patient, the time to conduct research, and the capacity to mentor junior staff have all been eroded.
We became doctors because we wanted to be by our patients' sides, yet we spend our days chasing paperwork. "If we could reclaim this time, we could save so many more patients"—driven by this conviction, a practicing emergency physician developed Koereq himself.
● What is Koereq?
Koereq is an AI documentation support tool specialized for medical settings. It converts AI-generated record text on a smartphone into a QR code, which can then be scanned to paste the information directly into existing electronic medical records.
It works with any type of electronic medical record system and requires no modifications to hospital networks.
It can be used not only for physician records but also for nursing and co-medical records, supporting the burden of the entire medical team across the board.
Currently, it has been introduced in over 10 facilities nationwide. Some facilities have already achieved a reduction in documentation time of up to 76%.
● The dream declared by Wonder Drill
What will change when Koereq spreads to every medical institution? Doctors will be able to use those 30 minutes of documentation time for dialogue with patients. Nurses will be able to experience the fulfillment of watching a patient recover, rather than just the sense of accomplishment from finishing paperwork.
Whether it is a small local clinic or an understaffed emergency hospital, an environment will be created where medical professionals can focus on the work they originally intended to do. The margin in medical care is the margin to save a patient's life. A society where you can receive the same quality of medical care no matter where you are—Wonder Drill will realize that future through Koereq.
● Future Development
Development of apps that "create time" in medical settings is currently underway. We are working on updates that aim to fuse analog and AI by converting handwritten notes into text, as well as developing multilingual support for inbound patients and communication apps for international trainees.
An on-premises, security-conscious AI is also in development, with a release planned for later this year.
