ADVANCED Abilities, is making waves in the healthcare industry by introducing a suite of innovative technology solutions, including AI to make faster diagnoses, better patient care, and provide wider accessibility.
“As a pioneering startup at the intersection of health, insurance, migrant welfare, and technological innovation, we position ourselves primarily within the insurtech and healthtech arenas. Our current focus is on deploying our existing product suite to the market, laying a solid foundation for our core operations,” Angelo Antonio (AA) Buendia CEO, Advanced Abilities Solutions told Malaya Business Insight.
In a press conference recently, Antonio and his team presented a suite of AI-driven Smart Health Solutions solutions.
Led by the AI Smart Scan, a portable X-ray system uses artificial intelligence to detect 32 different conditions, including tuberculosis, in record time. Imagine this: up to 200 scans completed in just 8 hours, providing results in minutes instead of days.
Developed by leading medical imaging AI company DeepTek, the AI Smart Scan software was designed by radiologists, for radiologists. It helps them easily identify abnormalities, generate reports based on their initial assessment, and features a user-friendly interface.
The ”responsible” AI system even double-checks its findings against the radiologist’s for ultimate accuracy. The success stories are already piling up. In India, AI Smart Scan has helped diagnose tuberculosis in a staggering 25 times more patients.
Antonio also introduced Absol, a portable rapid test kit for various blood tests, and RevDX, another portable device that gives complete blood count results with just a single prick. Both deliver accurate results within minutes, right at the point of care.
Advanced Abilities understands that healthcare is just one piece of the puzzle. They’ve developed additional solutions to empower Filipinos in various aspects of life. Policymate is an online platform that simplifies insurance by offering a digital marketplace. The P-ACE Portal helps ship owners and insurance companies track risk management.
At about the same time when the pandemic was happening, they developed the ABIZO OFW application in partnership with the POEA in 2021. The proof of concept phase concluded successfully, serving over 20,000 Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs) between 2021 and 2022, effectively responding to numerous distress calls.
“These achievements have furnished us with invaluable insights and experiences, which have been instrumental in the development of One OFW. This forthcoming iteration is a more expansive welfare and monitoring platform, meticulously designed to offer a broader spectrum of features for all stakeholders. One OFW is a testament to our ongoing commitment to innovation, migrant welfare, and the continuous enhancement of our service offerings to better serve the OFW community,” Antonio explained.
The final product revealed was the Advanced eSIM offers seamless international connectivity through a digital SIM card embedded directly into smartphones. Travelers can now enjoy affordable data plans in over 150 countries without needing a physical SIM card or extra devices.
