Problem
Clinical handovers—the transfer of patient responsibility between doctors or teams—often rely on verbal communication or unstructured notes, creating a high risk of miscommunication. The Joint Commission estimates that 80% of serious medical errors involve miscommunication during transitions of care, making handover failures a leading cause of preventable harm in healthcare.
Solution
Handovex provides an AI-assisted handover documentation platform that captures and structures clinical handovers in real time. The system uses live transcription with speaker attribution, automatically compiles drafts using dual-engine reconciliation to reduce errors in clinical vocabulary and drug names, and enforces a structured ISBAR format. Completeness checks and a review timer gate every signature, ensuring that all critical information is captured and verified before a handover is finalized. The platform supports department-level isolation—such as ICU, ED, Cardiology, and General Ward—so clinicians only see their own data while admins maintain cross-departmental oversight.
Target Audience
Primary customers are hospitals and health networks across Australia and New Zealand, as well as individual clinicians seeking structured handover documentation tools.
