Accesto - Case Study - HealthGraphic

Case study

Long story short

Healthgraphic is a startup from California run by a group of passionate doctors and medical experts who spent years building a medical knowledge database. Their goal was to allow app developers from around the world to use their database as the base for content-rich applications and intelligent products that recommend and personalize health content.

The Healthgraphic team were looking for database and API experts to build a whole platform for developers. That is where our cooperation started. We have designed and developed powerful API, supported with API reference, management console, maintenance and analytics tools and much more.

Medical expert system? Chatbot? Virtual doctor? No problem! And what’s your plan to use Healthgraphic API in your App?

Case study

Product created

Healthgraphic is a powerful search and discovery API that provides access to a large database of health content curated by medical experts. It utilizes graph technology to store and process medical knowledge in a more natural way.
In opposite to the old school encyclopedic way of storing information, Healthgraphic models relations between conditions, diseases, symptoms, treatments, etc. As a knowledge graph - a large net of interconnected elements. Isn’t it how it actually is?
To visualize the power of Healthgraphic API we have also created a demo application that uses a natural language to answer questions like What are the risk factors for Alzheimer's disease?

"I give Accesto a very favorable review overall. It was a pleasant surprise to see Accesto's team take an interest in our project and make great suggestions for features and ways of attacking the work. We have taken those suggestions to heart and actually implemented them."
