ELIAS Health

Empowering doctors through AI-driven consultations

An AI-powered solution that assists doctors during patient consultations.
Without replacing human expertise.

The Background

Dr. Danial Daud, a medical practitioner in the UK, first engaged with Vazco’s team years ago on another initiative. While that project didn’t continue due to the pandemic, he reconnected with us in 2024 to collaborate on ELIAS Health. The mission of ELIAS is straightforward yet ambitious:
“We don’t replace doctors. We empower them.”
ELIAS provides doctors with AI-generated documentation, real-time speech-to-text, and diagnostic support - all seamlessly integrated into a web application. Until recently, a single freelance developer was building the platform:
Danial, with the freelancer’s help, has created a functional MVP, complete with speech-to-text and some AI-based recommendations.
The app already captured real-time audio during consultations, then generated summary notes and follow-up questions for the doctor.
Yet the solution lacked product vision, robust AI architecture, and a dedicated CTO to transform a basic MVP into a full-fledged, investor-ready product.
Recognizing these gaps, Danial turned to Vazco for AI expertise, business guidance, and the leadership needed to scale ELIAS.

Key Challenges

Shifting from MVP to Scalable Product
The initial build was “good enough” but not ready for real-world scaling.
Limited Product Mindset
The existing developer delivered functional code but did not offer comprehensive product or strategic insights.
AI Integration & Accuracy
ELIAS needed to do more than record audio and provide notes enhanced with prompt engineering. It required targeted AI advancements that could deliver recommendations, and ensure references to official medical documentation.
Time & Funding Constraints
As a bootstrapped startup, ELIAS had to prove its value to secure future funding - meaning the AI system had to deliver tangible, time-saving benefits for doctors right away.

Our Approach

Strategic AI Consulting
Business & Funding Strategy
  • We advised ELIAS team on structuring the pitch for investors, showcasing a roadmap that extends beyond simple note-taking.
  • Helped crystallize ELIAS’s value proposition: a solution that lets doctors focus on patient care rather than administrative overhead.
Strategic AI Consulting
Enhanced Medical Referencing & Embedding
Developed a robust framework that leverages precise citation and efficient embedding of medical documents. This approach guarantees that all AI-generated insights are thoroughly grounded in verifiable, evidence-based sources - eliminating hallucinations and making it easy to confirm the medical validity of every recommendation, which is one of the most critical challenges in AI healthcare systems.
AI-UX: Empowering Doctors Subtly
Seamless Integration
Focus on a minimal cognitive load for the doctor, who can choose when to engage with the AI suggestions.

Multimodal Interaction
  • Voice-based transcription with no running costs on the web version and minimal running cost on the mobile while maintaining quality.
  • Text-based summary and note editor for refining or adding details with diarization.
  • Ensuring that doctors remain in control of the final diagnosis and documentation - Human-in-the-loop approach.
Specialized AI Agents & Validation
Transcript Formatting Agent
Transcribes doctor-patient conversations with integrated diarization and can incorporate additional contextual documents.
Specialized AI Agents & Validation
Report Generation Agent
Produces comprehensive reports from the transcript, leveraging supplementary documents to enrich context.
Specialized AI Agents & Validation
Doctor’s Query Agent
Responds to doctors’ questions by referencing authoritative medical sources for accurate validation.
While these agent categories are predefined, each can include multiple specialized agents, each triggered independently via an intuitive UI. This flexibility empowers clients to create and customize new agents - with unique prompts and contextual documents - within these three established types.

Implementation Highlights

Modular AI Framework
  • Each “agent” is treated as an interactive tool with a well-defined scope. This modular approach streamlines troubleshooting, upgrades, and compliance checks.
  • With an intuitive UI, users can effortlessly switch between LLMs, tailor prompts, adjust contextual documents, and choose from several specialized LLM presets that all perform the same task - giving them unprecedented flexibility without any code changes.
Iterative Evolution
  • We’re building on the existing MVP, refactoring critical parts of the system for scalability - rather than discarding prior work.
  • Our approach balances cost-effectiveness (maximizing the MVP’s foundation) with long-term vision (preparing for big funding rounds).
Continuous Collaboration
We introduced a PM and a senior consultant who joined forces with ELIAS team. They not only oversee code quality but also guide product decisions, ensuring the solution matures strategically.

Early Results & Momentum

Investor Readiness
With a clearer AI architecture and robust roadmap, ELIAS is positioned to attract funding. Investors see a product that is not only innovative but also aligned with healthcare standards.
Stronger Leadership & Product Vision
Our senior consultant acts as an interim CTO, steering technical and product decisions while the Founder can focus on securing finance, partnerships, and clinical validation.
Enhanced Doctor Experience
Context-aware AI prompts are more likely to be adopted during real consultations, freeing up mental space for patient interaction instead of admin tasks.
Scalable Foundation for Full Product Launch
Pending successful funding, we’re ready to expand the dev team - turning a promising MVP into a full-scale platform that can support large cohorts of British & Malaysian doctors.

Future Outlook

Securing Funding
Danial is in the final stages of investor discussions. Once closed, a larger product team from Vazco will ramp up development to meet the growing demand.
Expanding to Broader Medical Systems
We anticipate extending the solution’s compliance checks to other countries’ healthcare guidelines, enabling ELIAS to scale internationally.
Deeper AI Integration
Additional specialized agents to manage advanced clinical decision support, predictive analytics for patient outcomes, and streamlined EHR integrations.
