🧵1/Today, we published a key milestone towards AI based cardiac screening in Nature. doi.org/10.1038/s41586-025-0…
EchoNext outperformed cardiologists and found thousands of high-risk patients missed in routine care. We also made a version available to the world.

🏥 Structural heart disease (SHD) is common and often missed.
What if a standard ECG could spot it—accurately, at scale, across hospitals, and patient types?
Meet EchoNext, our AI model trained on 1.2M ECG-echo pairs.

📈 We ran EchoNext prospectively on patients with no prior echocardiogram.
🔍 27% were flagged as high-risk.
🩺 In the DISCOVERY trial, EchoNext stratified risk so well that 73% of high-risk patients had undiagnosed SHD.
→ It works before disease is caught.
