About

Connectbatch is seeking NHS organisations, Integrated Care Systems, Primary Care Networks, healthcare providers and public sector partners interested in collaborating on the deployment and evaluation of an AI-powered document intelligence platform.

Our AI Document Processor (TRL 5) uses OCR, machine learning and natural language processing (NLP) to digitise, extract, summarise, prioritise and identify clinically significant information from referrals, discharge summaries, test results and clinical correspondence.

The platform is designed to support:

  • Identification of safety-critical follow-up actions

  • Prioritisation of incoming clinical correspondence

  • Improved care coordination and workflow management

  • Reduction in document-processing burden

  • Earlier visibility of clinically relevant information

  • More efficient and consistent handling of routine document workflows

We are seeking partners interested in:

  • Pilot deployments

  • Shadow-mode evaluations

  • Clinical workflow optimisation

  • AI evaluation and evidence generation

  • Service transformation initiatives

  • Adoption and implementation planning

We are particularly interested in collaborating with organisations that can provide real-world deployment environments, evaluation support or subject matter expertise to help progress the solution from TRL 5 validation towards trusted operational deployment.

Preferred Partners:

  • NHS Trusts

  • GP Practices

  • Primary Care Networks

  • Integrated Care Systems

  • Community Healthcare Providers

  • Public Sector Organisations

  • Clinical Safety and Governance Specialists
