"OpenEvidence powers over half a million clinical conversations per day to verified American clinicians–for free. We believe every patient deserves to be seen by physicians with access to the highest quality information in the world, and our free-to-physician, ad-supported model enables every single practice in the country to leverage this technology, no matter the level of resources available to them," said Zachary Ziegler, cofounder of OpenEvidence.
