AI and clinical safety
Veridian Motion uses multi-provider large language models to produce non-diagnostic triage support for licensed PTs. AI output never goes directly to inmates and never constitutes a diagnosis.Design principles
- Triage support, not diagnosis. Language throughout the product uses assessment, observations, hypotheses, and PT-reviewed recommendations — not diagnosis or treatment decision.
- PT-review gate. AI findings and draft exercise plans appear only in the provider dashboard until a PT marks the assessment reviewed.
- Red flags first. AI-generated red-flag alerts render in a prominent “review first” callout. PTs confirm clinically before acting.
- Model transparency. The model that produced each assessment is recorded and displayed to the PT (e.g., “Generated by …”).
Multi-LLM router
Server-side routing selects a provider with automatic failover:| Priority | Provider |
|---|---|
| 1 | Anthropic Claude (primary) |
| 2 | OpenAI GPT |
| 3 | xAI Grok |
| 4 | Fallback gateway |
AI calls run in TanStack server functions — API keys and prompts are
not exposed to the inmate kiosk browser.
What AI produces
For each submitted assessment, AI may generate:| Output | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Observations | Structured notes on posture/MSK patterns visible from photos and complaint |
| Hypotheses to review | Non-diagnostic possibilities for PT consideration |
| Red-flag alerts | Prompts for urgent in-person evaluation when patterns warrant |
| Draft exercise plan | Graded bodyweight exercises from the exercise-media library |
What AI does not do
- Diagnose conditions or replace PT clinical judgment
- Send content to inmates without PT review
- Initiate external communications or emergency response
- Store prompts or responses containing PHI in application logs
PT workflow
Review red flags first
Open the red-flag callout before other AI sections. Escalate through
facility protocols if clinically indicated.
Review observations and hypotheses
Compare AI output to photos, body-map selections, and Q&A. Accept, edit,
or disregard as clinical judgment requires.
Edit the exercise plan
Adjust the draft bodyweight plan for custody constraints. Use the
exercise-media library for images and video references.
Add PT notes
Document assessment and plan. Mark notes shared with inmate only when
appropriate for the inmate to read.
AI note summarization
PTs may use AI note summarization to draft documentation from assessment context. Summaries are drafts — the PT must review and approve before they become part of the clinical record.Limitations and honesty
Veridian Motion is not FDA-cleared software as a medical device. AI models may be wrong, incomplete, or biased. PTs and facilities remain responsible for all clinical decisions and inmate safety.What’s next
