Strategic acquisition brings generative AI into structured workflows, reinforcing Kailo's mission to deliver long-term impact through trusted, collaborative innovation.
, /CNW/ - Kailo Medical, a global leader in structured reporting for medical imaging, today announced its acquisition of REI AI, a pioneering generative AI company founded by Australian Radiology Registrar, Dr. Reuben Schmidt. The acquisition marks a significant milestone in Kailo's ongoing commitment to transforming diagnostic reporting with tools that elevate both precision and clinical efficiency.
At the heart of this acquisition lies a shared philosophy: that meaningful technology begins with deep understanding. Both companies are rooted in clinical insight and built with a clear focus on supporting radiologists. With REI AI, Kailo expands its capabilities to include generative reporting technology that will seamlessly integrate into clinical workflows, unlocking new levels of speed, clarity, and consistency.
"This acquisition reflects our belief that the future of radiology should be shaped by those who live it every day." said Bernard Duscher, Co-founder at Kailo Medical. "It empowers Radiologists to concentrate on the clinical question at hand, freeing them from the burden of transcription and allowing them to fully leverage their expertise."
Dr. Reuben Schmidt joins Kailo as Director of Clinical AI, bringing invaluable real-world expertise in the use of large language models in the clinical workflow. His hands-on experience in radiology, combined with a pragmatic approach to AI, ensures that the resulting solutions will enhance rather than disrupt.
"REI AI was built by a radiologist, for radiologists," said Schmidt. "Each feature is designed to remove friction, reduce errors, and help us focus on what really matters - providing high quality patient care."
REI AI was created in response to rising imaging volumes, outdated reporting systems, and the growing need for smarter, more responsive tools. REI's technology offers:
-
Natural dictation, elevated: Converts traditional voice dictation into structured, high-quality reports, preserving clinician workflow while improving speed and accuracy.
-
Real-time error detection: Uses LLMs to identify potential issues within reports before finalization, reducing rework and risk.
-
Clinician-led design: Built by a practicing radiologist with firsthand insight into workflow frustrations and opportunities for improvement.
-
Unified experience: A streamlined reporting environment that blends structure, flexibility, and clinical intent.
-
Clinically aligned impressions, personalized: Automatically generates impressions in the radiologist's own language, drawing from prior reports, clinical context, available data systems, and preferred templates to ensure consistency, clarity and clinical excellence.
