- Seamless sync with Epic when connection restored
- Audit trail and timestamp reconciliation for time changes
- Alerts for pending documentation before shift end
Target Users: Nurses and other clinical staff in hospitals using Epic EHR, especially those working off-hours or during scheduled downtimes
Revenue Model: Per-hospital annual license fee based on number of users, plus implementation and support fees
