Patients Cannot Understand Their Own Prescriptions and Lab Reports Without Medical Training
Medical documents use clinical terminology that most patients cannot interpret without specialized training, creating a comprehension gap between providers and the people receiving care. Patients who cannot understand their prescriptions or lab results are more likely to miss dosing instructions, ignore important findings, or make uninformed decisions about follow-up care. The gap is especially acute for older adults, non-native speakers, and patients managing chronic conditions with frequent lab monitoring.

AI Assistants Cannot Dynamically Create New Capabilities at Runtime
Current AI assistants operate within a fixed set of pre-built skills and cannot autonomously construct new tools or integrations when they encounter capability gaps. This forces users to wait for developer-added features rather than having the assistant adapt to novel tasks in real time. The concept is demonstrated by a product that allows an AI to self-generate the skills it needs.
Real-Time Filler Word Detection for Improving Speech Habits
Speakers who rely heavily on filler words (um, uh, like, etc.) often lack awareness of the habit in the moment, making it difficult to self-correct through reflection alone. Existing tools like speech coaches or post-hoc recordings don't provide real-time feedback during natural conversation. The gap is a live feedback loop that surfaces the problem as it occurs rather than after the fact.
