About PRIME

PRIME is an AI-powered clinical decision support tool for doctors and nurses in South Africa. On a supporting device, it guides nurses step by step through structured spoken consultations in the patient's own language, including English, Afrikaans, Zulu, Xhosa and Sesotho, with every consultation reviewed by a doctor.

It is aimed at GPs, clinics, pharmacies and emergency rooms facing heavy patient loads and language barriers, and offers automated diagnostics and remote doctor review. The product is taking sign-ups through a waitlist. PRIME is based in Cape Town, South Africa, and was founded in 2025.
