Platform in development
PathPal
Veterinary pathology, connected around the case.
PathPal is being developed to support the diagnostic journey from post-mortem examination through specimen tracking, laboratory results, diagnosis and reporting.
Keep the clinical story together.

Final reporting
Different users need different levels of structure.
Pathologist
Fast recording with free text, voice input, images, samples, investigations, diagnosis and reporting without unnecessary prompts.
Veterinarian
A guided examination that can help support consistency while still allowing professional judgement and free-text observations.
Student
A more visual and guided environment intended to teach systematic examination, observation and pathology terminology.
AI can reduce friction. The clinician remains in control.
Planned and prototype assistance includes speech transcription, extracting information from handwritten material, structuring findings, reading laboratory reports, suggesting pathology codes and supporting draft report creation.
Suggested information should be reviewed, edited or rejected by the user before it becomes part of the confirmed clinical record.
PathPal should fit into existing veterinary and laboratory environments.
The development direction includes APIs, structured export, secure data exchange and connectors to external systems rather than forcing organisations to replace everything they already use.
