Medical Devices

Accelerate Device Innovation with Regulatory-Ready AI

Getting a medical device to market takes 3-7 years and costs $31M on average. We build AI that automates regulatory documentation, predicts quality issues before they become recalls, and turns post-market surveillance into a competitive advantage.

Industry Challenges

The Medical Device Innovation Bottleneck

Regulatory burden, quality system complexity, and post-market requirements slow down even the most innovative device companies.

📝

Regulatory Submission Overload

510(k) and PMA submissions require thousands of pages of documentation. Manual preparation consumes months of engineering time.

🏭

Manufacturing Quality Variability

Process deviations cause costly scrap, rework, and delays. Traditional SPC methods miss subtle drift patterns.

⚠️

Complaint & CAPA Management

FDA expects timely complaint investigation and CAPA implementation. Manual processes lead to backlog and regulatory risk.

🔍

Post-Market Surveillance Gaps

MDR and IVDR require active post-market surveillance, but most teams rely on reactive complaint analysis.

📊

Design History File Complexity

DHF documentation for FDA and EU MDR requires traceability from user needs to verification. Maintaining this manually is error-prone.

🔄

Supply Chain Disruption

Component shortages and supplier quality issues require rapid qualification of alternates without compromising regulatory status.

Case Study

Class II Manufacturer Cuts Submission Time 45%

A mid-size cardiovascular device company automated 510(k) preparation and deployed predictive quality monitoring across two manufacturing sites.

The Challenge

The Problem

Regulatory submissions were consuming 40% of engineering capacity while manufacturing quality issues led to two voluntary recalls in 18 months.

Each 510(k) submission took 8+ months of preparation
Manual SPC missed a drift pattern that caused a field recall
CAPA backlog exceeded 60 open items with aging violations
Post-market surveillance was entirely reactive and complaint-driven

Our Approach: We deployed document intelligence AI to auto-draft 510(k) sections from existing design files, implemented predictive quality models on manufacturing data, and built an automated CAPA workflow that reduced cycle time from 90 days to 35 days on average.

Client Stories

What Our Clients Say

The AI drafted our predicate comparison in two days. It used to take our regulatory team three weeks. And it was more thorough.

RK
Dr. Robert Kim
VP Regulatory Affairs, CardioVantage

We caught a sterilization drift pattern six hours before it would have affected a production batch. That alone paid for the entire year.

AT
Angela Torres
Director Quality, OrthoPrecision

Our FDA audit went smoother than any in company history. The auditor commented on the quality of our documentation and traceability.
