Key Features
- Live preference card updates based on surgeon adjustments during surgery
- AI that predicts missing instruments and suggests substitutes
- Integrated photo capture of custom prep/drape setups
- Counts tracker that auto-populates from the preference card
Target Users: OR nurses and scrub techs in hospitals and surgical centers
Revenue Model: $49/mo per OR suite or $399/yr per surgeon
