Established in 2011, RapidAIdevelops advanced cerebrovascular imaging solutions to enable patient care, research, and clinical trials.
RapidAI workflow and messaging technologies assist stroke teams in saving time, while the company’s analytics and business intelligence products enable stroke networks to minimise costs and enhance patient outcomes.
RapidAI CEO Don Listwin said: “For several years, we have worked to develop and bring to market the next generation of AI-enhanced cerebrovascular imaging products. We have been rewarded for that dedication with sustained growth and uninterrupted profitability since going to market.
“In the last year, we have expanded our scope from ischemic stroke to hemorrhagic stroke, and with the recent acquisition of EndoVantage, we now address aneurysm. In these difficult global times, this investment is a significant sign of support, that while others are shrinking and shuttering, we are investing and growing to help build efficient stroke networks across multi-site systems and referral networks.”
