Dec 2023 - Ongoing2 years 6 months
Project Overview

It's an AI voice and messaging platform for healthcare organizations. It answers and automates high-volume patient phone traffic in HIPAA-compliant environments, integrating with EHRs and scheduling tools, and turns every conversation into structured, actionable data. I designed and built the entire system solo.
