The people behind Aperta

Small team, clear purpose.

We make what a doctor says easier to understand: carefully, calmly, and with respect for the person it is for.

How we work

Built with care.

Plain language first

One sentence a person can repeat back. Clear does not mean simplistic: we keep what matters and take out what gets in the way.

Nothing stored

The note lives in the tab for one request and is gone when the tab closes. No account, no upload, no history.

The library decides

Which drawing and which sentence a diagnosis becomes is curated, not generated. A model, when present, only translates or fills gaps.

Refusal is a feature

A line the parser cannot use is shown under Not used rather than guessed at. A drug name is never translated. A check that finds nothing says exactly what it checked.

Drawn by hand

Every body, bone and organ is our own ink, with the red spot on a real structure. No 3D, no stock illustration.

Designed for the room

People take this in while frightened, hurried or in pain, on a laptop turned toward them. One idea per screen, read aloud, printed to keep.
