Why it matters
Clinical decisions in Aotearoa must reflect local formularies, referral pathways, and cultural contexts. Rongoā.ai reduces time spent searching documents, surfaces the exact guideline passages clinicians need, and links back to the original source so users can verify recommendations.
What we build
- RAG-powered clinical answers that cite NZ guidance.
- Strict source-first responses to minimise hallucination.
- Privacy-conscious design: clinical data is handled with care and only used as described in our policies.
- Prioritisation of Pharmac schedules and NZ-specific recommendations.
Our team & purpose
Rongoā.ai is founded and developed by clinicians and engineers based in Aotearoa. We build with kaupapa Māori principles in mind and direct a portion of proceeds to native reforestation and educational support for Māori health graduates.
Credibility & transparency
We do not claim regulatory approvals or certifications we do not hold. Our commitment is to present sourced, verifiable guidance and to be transparent about limitations. Clinicians should always use clinical judgement and consult primary guidelines where necessary.
Looking ahead
We are running clinician-focused trials and iterative betas. Beta launch coming 2028 — we plan to expand access progressively, learn from clinician feedback, and keep safety and locality central to the rollout.
