kaiko workspace: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

kaiko workspace is a clinical AI workspace from Kaiko B.V. for hospitals. The software runs as a layer on top of existing systems, including the electronic health record, and assembles the context from the whole record for each patient. Workflows include consult preparation, guideline questions, preparation for multidisciplinary meetings, second opinion, tumour segmentation, response assessment on imaging, handover, discharge summaries and registry preparation. Every statement links to its source and the clinician decides. According to the website, the software is not a medical device.

Kaiko B.V. is a Dutch company with its registered office in Amsterdam and a branch in Zurich. According to the vendor, patient data remains under the hospital's control and is not pooled into a shared model. The website does not state exactly where processing takes place; its trust centre lists subprocessors. Ask about the hosting location and the AI models before supplying health data. The website names no parent company.
