Uruguay's clinical protocols, one question away.
MediAssist brings clinical guidelines scattered across hundreds of sources into a single conversational platform — every answer points back to its exact source.
The information exists. It's just scattered.
Every day, internists consult ministry guidelines, hospital protocols, medical societies, and international references — spread across hundreds of documents with no single point of entry.
Some protocols work like calculators: enter a severity score, get a concrete recommendation. Others read like full clinical guideline books, with theory and reasoning behind every decision. Neither format is searchable in one place today.
Many hospital computers restrict internet access, which makes it harder to pull up something as basic as the latest GOLD protocol during a consultation — and guidelines keep changing, so whatever gets found has to be kept current too.
Fragmentation
Protocols live across ministries, hospitals, societies and international bodies, never in one index.
Restricted access
Hospital networks often block the open internet, exactly when a protocol is needed most.
Constant change
Guidelines get revised over time — keeping every copy current is a standing burden.
Ask a question. Get the protocol, cited.
A conversational layer sits on top of every protocol your institution loads — answering in plain language, never inventing what isn't written.
Ask in plain language
No keywords or document names needed — just describe the clinical situation.
Semantic retrieval
Hybrid search finds the most relevant passage across every loaded protocol.
Cited answer
The response is grounded strictly in the source text, with the citation attached.
Open the full protocol
One click reaches the complete document for deeper reading.
Built around how clinicians actually work.
Centralized library
Upload, classify, and version protocols from one admin panel — PDF, HTML, or scanned.
Conversational chat
Natural-language questions, follow-up context, and clarifying questions when needed.
Citations by default
Every answer names its source protocol and section — never a black box.
Clinical calculators
Score- and formula-based protocols behave like calculators, not just text.
Role-based access
Individual logins, admin controls, and permissions aligned to each user type.
Web & mobile
Browser access for admins, native apps on iOS and Android for clinicians on the move.
Designed to be secure, scalable, and cost-efficient.
A retrieval-augmented architecture purpose-built to keep clinical answers grounded in real protocols, running on AWS infrastructure.
MedGraphRAG on PostgreSQL
Vector search via pgvector and pgvectorscale, with hybrid search and reranking for clinically relevant retrieval — built to migrate to a dedicated vector store as load grows.
AWS infrastructure, independent auth
Core services run on AWS, with Auth0 handling authentication so identity stays independent of any single cloud provider.
An engineering team, a clinical partner.
Built by three full-stack engineers
MediAssist began as a thesis project and is being developed end to end — product discovery, architecture, and implementation — by a three-person engineering team.
A clinical society as domain partner
SMIU brings together internists across Uruguay to advance clinical practice and continuing education — and works with the team to validate needs and review content as the platform takes shape.
