Elevating Clinical Practice: Sofya at the Epicenter of Healthcare Innovation
Connect with the Real-Time Clinical Reasoner at the Gartner IT Symposium/Xpo 2024 and HLTH in the USA
Sofya is gearing up to showcase the latest innovations of its Real-Time Clinical Reasoner to leaders in the healthcare and technology sectors. These updates will be presented at two major events in the United States: the Gartner IT Symposium/Xpo, from October 21-24 in Orlando, and HLTH, from October 20-23 in Las Vegas.
With a focus on applying its proprietary AI to enhance clinical practice, Sofya aims to tackle the challenges posed by the increasing complexity of medical information, which puts tremendous pressure on healthcare professionals, as well as the gaps in treatment adherence. The platform is designed to assist healthcare professionals in delivering more effective and personalized care, grounded in scientific evidence.
Each year, 2.5 million medical articles are published (NIM, 2024), making it impossible for professionals to stay updated on all the relevant information. This creates a critical disconnect between best practices and actual clinical application. According to studies from The New England Journal of Medicine, only 55% of patients receive the recommended treatment, highlighting the urgent need for AI tools that can assist in clinical practice.
To address this challenge, Sofya will introduce the Clinical Reasoner, which provides real-time, personalized treatment recommendations based on the most advanced global protocols—WHO, Cochrane, and NICE—helping physicians make clinical decisions consistently backed by evidence and guidelines.
"Healthcare professionals face the impossible task of keeping up with the vast amount of scientific output and applying it daily. Sofya acts as a 'second brain,' synthesizing millions of articles, protocols, and medical guidelines, while continuously learning from new evidence," explains Igor Couto , CEO of Sofya USA.
By personalizing treatment recommendations, Sofya encourages greater patient adherence to therapeutic regimens, leading to better clinical outcomes and fewer complications from non-response to medication. This ensures that physicians can operate safely and efficiently in an increasingly complex environment.
“With this, we bridge the gap between available knowledge and practical application, helping to ensure that more patients receive the right treatments based on the most up-to-date guidelines,” adds Couto.
Cutting-edge Technology Trained on Scientific Evidence
The real strength of Sofya lies in its proprietary technology, powered by an in-house LLM (large language model) that redefines AI standards in healthcare. This superintelligence has been trained using one of the most comprehensive medical repositories, incorporating 40 billion tokens for benchmarking — reaching the excellence of global standards like Meditron but with an even more robust and personalized edge.
Sofya’s system integrates a vast database, including 8,000 drugs, 30,000 medical terms, and half a million medical documents vectorized, totaling 1 billion tokens in medical vectorization. This means that Sofya not only processes information — it understands, analyzes, and transforms complex data into practical, actionable insights, all in real-time.

With this technological infrastructure, Sofya provides doctors with the immense capability to access, interpret, and apply the latest scientific evidence and global protocols, supporting them at every stage of the patient journey and in every clinical decision.
Less Bureaucracy and Resource Waste; More Operational Efficiency
Sofya's potential lies in its powerful ability to capture and structure patient data in a personalized way. This approach frees doctors from bureaucratic tasks, allowing healthcare teams to focus on what truly matters: elevating clinical excellence, optimizing time, and resources.
According to the report "Health Care Waste and Cost in the U.S.," about 30% of healthcare spending in the U.S.—equivalent to 18% of GDP—is considered waste (JAMA, 2019). This results in over $600 billion lost annually due to inefficient administrative processes, care delivery failures, and unnecessary treatments.
Addressing this challenge head-on, Sofya excels at transforming medical workflows. In real-time, during consultations, the platform captures voice data, converting it into structured and personalized formats tailored to the specific needs of each clinic or hospital.
By focusing on administrative process optimization, the solution saves time and reduces medical errors—currently the third leading cause of death in the U.S. (BMJ, 2016). Additionally, it standardizes information, enhancing communication between healthcare teams and ensuring greater efficiency in patient care.
“We free healthcare professionals from bureaucratic tasks that consume over 60% of their time in administrative and digital documentation activities, which has led to an epidemic of burnout,” says Marcelo Mearim , CEO of Sofya in Brazil.
“Our technology not only helps fight physician burnout but also elevates clinical excellence and efficiency, resulting in significant improvements in patient outcomes and reduced operational costs for our partners.”
A major advantage is the plug-and-play integration with existing Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems. Speaking the language of healthcare, Sofya is compatible with leading interoperability standards like HL7, FHIR and OHDSI, and uses international medical terminologies such as SNOMED, LOINC, and RxNorm. This ensures a seamless connection with minimal and quick installation, allowing immediate benefits to be realized.
