Machine Medicine

A clinical computer-vision app, built and taken to market

Machine Medicine's Kelvin platform turns short video clips into objective measurements of motor function, so early signs of loss are caught and treated sooner. They brought us in to build the Android app that puts that technology in clinicians' hands. We planned, built and delivered a highly performant app, ready to launch.

  • One team to plan, build and ship

Healthcare Apps for Patients, Clinicians and Care Teams

From a first MVP to a production platform, we build healthcare apps that handle patient data the way HIPAA expects.

Patient Apps

Mobile apps that help patients book care, follow treatment plans and stay in touch with their providers.

  • Appointment booking and reminders
  • Care plans, medication tracking and education
  • Secure messaging with the care team
  • Push notifications that never expose PHI

Telehealth Platforms

Video visits, virtual waiting rooms and follow-ups that work on any device.

  • Video and audio visits on HIPAA-eligible infrastructure
  • Virtual waiting room and provider queue
  • Visit notes and follow-up tasks
  • Payments and insurance details captured securely

Clinician Tools

Apps that put data and workflows in front of clinicians where they work, including on a phone.

  • Clinical workflows designed with your staff
  • Offline-tolerant mobile apps for the floor or the field
  • Role-based access for every user type
  • Fast, focused screens that cut clicks

Remote Patient Monitoring

Connect devices and wearables to a dashboard your team can act on.

  • Bluetooth and wearable device integration
  • Thresholds and alerts for the care team
  • Trend dashboards per patient and per cohort
  • Data pipelines with an audit trail

Patient Portals

Web portals where patients see results, records and bills in one place.

  • Lab results, records and visit history
  • Forms and intake completed before the visit
  • Billing and statements
  • Identity verification and MFA

Health Startup MVPs

Get a compliant first version in front of users and investors without rebuilding later.

  • Scope cut to what proves the product
  • Compliance foundations from day one
  • Architecture that scales past the pilot
  • A clear handover if you build an in-house team

How We Build Healthcare Apps

A compliance-first process, run by one team from discovery to launch.

01

Discovery and BAA

We map your users, workflows and data flows, identify where PHI lives, and sign a Business Associate Agreement before we touch any patient data.

02

Compliant Architecture

We design the app and its backend around HIPAA's safeguards: encryption, access control, audit logging and HIPAA-eligible hosting.

03

Build in Sprints

You see working software every sprint. Security testing and code review are part of every release, not a step at the end.

04

Launch and Support

We handle App Store and Google Play release, production monitoring and ongoing improvements, or hand over cleanly to your team.

Healthcare Apps Your Patients Will Actually Use

We build native iOS, Android and cross-platform apps for patient engagement, telehealth and clinical workflows, with security designed in rather than bolted on.

  • Native iOS & Android development
  • Progressive Web Apps (PWA)
  • Cross-platform with React Native
  • App Store optimization & launch

Healthcare App Development Services

Mobile, compliance and integration work under one team.

iOS, Android and Web

Native and Cross-Platform Healthcare Apps

We build in Swift, Kotlin, React Native and Flutter, choosing the stack that fits your users and budget. Security decisions such as session handling, on-device storage and notifications are made up front.

  • React Native and Flutter for one codebase on both platforms
  • Native Swift and Kotlin when performance requires it
  • Web apps and portals in React and Next.js
  • App Store and Google Play release management
// Patient app: what we wire in from day one
const app = createHealthApp({
  platforms: ['ios', 'android'],
  auth: { mfa: true, sessionTimeout: '15m' },
  storage: { encryptAtRest: true, phiOnDevice: 'minimal' },
});

app.audit.log('record.viewed', {
  user: session.userId,
  patient: patient.id,
});

Healthcare App Development Questions

What makes a healthcare app HIPAA-compliant?

An app is HIPAA-compliant when patient data is protected by the administrative, physical and technical safeguards the HIPAA Security Rule requires, and every vendor that handles that data has signed a Business Associate Agreement. In practice that means encryption in transit and at rest, access control, audit logging, HIPAA-eligible hosting and documented processes. There is no official HIPAA certification for apps, so be wary of anyone who claims one.

Will you sign a Business Associate Agreement?

Yes. We sign a BAA before we work with any protected health information, and we only use hosting and third-party services that will sign one too.

How much does healthcare app development cost?

It depends on scope, platforms and integrations. We bill a transparent $50 hourly rate, and you can start with a 7-day risk-free trial. After a short discovery call we give you a scoped estimate, with an MVP option if you want to launch quickly.

How long does it take to build a healthcare app?

A focused MVP typically takes a few months; platforms with EHR integrations and several user types take longer. We start with a short discovery phase and agree a timeline with clear milestones before the build begins.

Can you integrate the app with our EHR?

Yes. We integrate through FHIR and HL7 APIs, including Epic, Cerner and other EHR platforms, subject to the access your EHR vendor provides.

Can you take over an existing healthcare app?

Yes. We start with a code and security review, fix what is risky first, and then continue development or rebuild the parts that hold you back.
