Ruby provides a platform for structured cancer survivorship care by using AI to streamline patient intake and organize necessary information for specialists. The system generates personalized support plans based on gathered data, which clinicians review and adapt with the patient. This creates a shared workspace that preserves context and monitors patient progress post-treatment.

Problem
Cancer patients often lack sufficient guidance and access to supportive care therapies, leading to increased stress, anxiety, and difficulty managing treatment side effects. Navigating the complexities of cancer care can be overwhelming, leaving patients feeling unprepared and unsupported throughout their journey. Access to specialized support, such as nutritional guidance, emotional support, and physical rehabilitation, is often limited and not easily integrated into traditional oncology care.
Solution
Ruby Care is an AI-driven platform designed to connect cancer patients with a network of qualified supportive care specialists, providing personalized care plans and appointment management. The platform uses an initial questionnaire to understand the patient's specific needs and cancer experience, then matches them with appropriate specialists in areas like nutrition, psycho-oncology, physiotherapy, and care navigation. Patients can track their well-being and milestones through a personal dashboard, sharing information with specialists as they choose. By democratizing access to complementary therapies, Ruby Care aims to improve patients' mental resilience, reduce long-term side effects, and enhance their overall quality of life during and after cancer treatment.
Target Audience
Ruby Care primarily targets cancer patients and their families seeking personalized and integrated supportive care throughout their cancer journey, as well as oncologists looking to provide more holistic care to their patients.
