About Pharos

Pharos automates hospital quality reporting, saving millions in labour costs and helping to prevent avoidable patient harm. Today, clinicians spend thousands of hours manually pulling complex facts out of medical records for mandatory reporting and quality improvement. Our AI pulls those facts out of unstructured medical records automatically. We automate reporting and show staff where avoidable patient harm is happening.
