Building AI in Healthcare: From Idea to Deployment

AI is transforming healthcare, but turning that potential into a real, working app is where many teams get stuck.

Today, nearly 79% of healthcare organizations are already using AI to improve patient care. From automating diagnostics to predicting patient risks, AI is making healthcare smarter, faster, and more personalized. But if you’re thinking of building your own AI-powered healthcare application, there’s more to it than just training a model.

To go from idea to production, you’ll need to navigate:

Defining the right use case, ideally with medical or clinical input

🔐 Handling sensitive data securely (think HIPAA compliance, anonymization, secure storage)

🧠 Choosing the right AI model, like computer vision for image analysis or NLP for doctor’s notes

☁️ Deploying on a scalable, secure infrastructure with real-time monitoring

It's a multi-layered process that requires more than just ML knowledge, you need product thinking, compliance awareness, and a clear deployment strategy.

We put together a video that takes a closer look at this process, walking through the critical stages, potential roadblocks, and tips that can help you build a solid AI solution for healthcare.
