    “When you're an early-stage, fast moving software start-up, time to value is important when considering the many build versus buy decisions your technology company will face. For us, switching to Amazon Comprehend Medical's RxNorm and ICD-10 entity recognition tools was a no-brainer. The APIs allowed us to quickly replace several hand-stitched solutions that were difficult and costly to maintain while also improving performance with a higher rate of accuracy and recall.”

  • Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center

Amazon Comprehend Medical will reduce this time burden from hours to seconds. This is a vital step toward getting researchers rapid access to the information they need when they need it so they can find actionable insights to advance lifesaving therapies for patients.”
