Draft project · Hack Brasil 2026

Turn medical conversations into lasting clinical knowledge.

KTB Health is a medicine documentation platform with an ambient scribe: it captures the consultation audio, stores it, transcribes it in PT-BR, structures the anamnesis, and hands it to the physician to review and approve. The doctor decides; KTB records.

The problem

Brazilian doctors spend about 40% of a consultation documenting instead of listening. Poorly recorded anamnesis means clinical errors, legal exposure, and a 15-minute consult turning into 25 minutes of charting. Existing EMRs make it worse: the physician types looking at the screen, not at the patient.

How it works

From conversation to approved clinical record in four steps.

  1. 1

    Capture

    The ambient scribe captures the consultation audio — telemedicine first because remote capture is simpler, the exam room next.

  2. 2

    Transcribe

    The audio is stored, transcribed in PT-BR, and processed automatically. Accurate and cheap by design.

  3. 3

    Structure

    An LLM drafts the clinical anamnesis structure: chief complaint, history of present illness, background, physical exam. Hypotheses and plan stay with the physician.

  4. 4

    Review

    The physician reviews, edits, and approves. The structured record is ready to export.

Principles

AI drafts, the physician decides

KTB Health supports clinical documentation. It does not diagnose or prescribe; every record is reviewed and approved by a human doctor. KTB is a tool, not a decision-maker: the physician holds total decision.

Privacy first

Explicit patient consent before every capture, and the option to run fully in your own environment.

Built for Brazil

PT-BR clinical language, local anamnesis structure, and workflows that match how Brazilian physicians actually practice.

Channel-agnostic

Works alongside whatever channel the consultation already uses — exam room, any telehealth app, phone call — no lock-in and no workflow change.

Who it is for

Physicians running teleconsultations or in-person visits who want their time back. We start with telemedicine; in-person care is core to the vision. Built for the Brazilian healthcare context first, with B2C self-serve for individual doctors.

Vision

Beyond transcription: a documentation platform connecting consultations, records, and patient history over time. KTB is a tool and a platform, never a decision-maker. The name KTB Health comes from the Arabic root K-T-B, associated with writing, books, and preserving knowledge.
