This feature is amazing, FOAM Cortex picks a relevant calculator and populates selections based on your question. Works on web and in latest version of mobile app. foamcortex.com/
FOAM Cortex now supports clinical calculators inside the answer workflow — with interpretation, caveats, and cited context alongside the answer. Starting with ED-heavy tools: PE, chest pain, trauma, sepsis, neuro, tox, and more. foamcortex.com

the cost of an LLM powered query on wikem is orders of magnitude cheaper than any generic model. we have the least expensive highest yield data in all of medical retrieval systems. ask a question get a short concise answer. then take care of patients.
Rigorous evaluation of medical AI is good for everyone, and we welcome it. Counter to a half-dozen independent studies from institutions such as the Mayo Clinic that were highly positive on OpenEvidence—a lone paper now purports to show that generalized AI beats specialized clinical AI (@UpToDate, @openevidence). The paper has a massive undisclosed conflict of interest and irredeemable methodological flaws. Behind the scenes: The study authors run a competing in-house medical AI at their hospital, and asked OpenEvidence for an API to power it — including rights to build a "competing product" with OpenEvidence's own API. OpenEvidence declined. Then, this paper coincidentally appeared. Point-by-point, looking closely at the datasets used in the study, the disingenuous and fatal flaws become immediately apparent 🧵.

Most operational updates already move by email. With FOAM Cortex Smart Inbox, an ED director or ops lead can add a dedicated FOAM Cortex address to the existing mailing list. Relevant attachments and updates get captured, indexed, and searchable — without a new workflow.

Every ED has local knowledge scattered across PDFs, emails, pathways, and shared drives. FOAM Cortex for Institutions brings it into a governed, source-backed clinical assistant: site routing, source controls, user management, audit trails. foamcortex.com/institutions

OK Hermes is unmistakably better than OpenClaw - evidenced by far fewer threads of me swearing at Jarvis. So good in fact that he killed the old Jarvis.
