Flywheel

The business model centres on delivering enterprise-grade SaaS and licensed deployments for biomedical and clinical imaging data management, analysis and sharing. The core platform aggregates and structures imaging data, automates workflows via containerised algorithms, and enables discovery and exchange of datasets. This creates value by reducing data-management overhead, standardising workflows, supporting AI development and enabling compliant, auditable pipelines for research and regulated studies.

Value is further enhanced through an ecosystem of plug-ins (“Gears”), discovery tooling over existing imaging archives and a marketplace layer for data and algorithm exchange. Professional services, including data-science consulting and custom workflow or Gear development, help customers adopt the platform, integrate it with existing infrastructures and meet regulatory requirements.
