The AI problem every Canadian clinician faces
Cloud AI cannot be used with patient data
PIPEDA, provincial health privacy legislation, and your college's standards prohibit transmitting identifiable patient information to third-party cloud services. General-purpose AI tools cannot meet these obligations.
Healthcare-grade AI platforms are priced for hospitals
Enterprise clinical AI tools exist — but they require IT departments, procurement cycles, and six-figure contracts. Not practical for a physician in private practice or a small clinic.
Ferox Nodus: clinical AI capability, zero PHI exposure
Runs entirely on your Mac. Patient records are processed locally and never transmitted. When frontier model capability is needed, PHI is scrubbed before anything leaves your device.
Built for clinical work
Clinical Note Summarization
Summarize lengthy patient records, visit notes, and specialist reports into structured clinical summaries — entirely on-device.
Referral & Report Drafting
Generate first drafts of referral letters and clinical reports using templates calibrated for medical writing conventions.
Patient Record Search
Search across a patient's file history by clinical meaning. Find the lab result, diagnosis, or medication note you need in seconds.
6-Layer PII Scrubbing
Names, dates of birth, health card numbers, and addresses are detected and replaced with synthetic tokens before any cloud escalation. Raw PHI never transmits.
Six layers between
your data and the cloud.
Privacy isn't a policy — it's architecture. Every query passes through six protection layers before anything reaches the network.
