Clinical intelligence layer · for Korean clinics

Clear signals,
in the language of care.

Axonik is a B2B SaaS platform that turns foreign patient documents into PIPA-compliant structured Korean clinical summaries — in under two minutes. Built for Korean clinics and medical tourism agencies serving international patients.

The problem · real numbers

Korea welcomed 1.17 million foreign patients in 2024. The EMRs built to serve them don’t exist yet.

Manual coordinator time per patient

Korean EMR systems serve 100% of domestic patients — and have zero infrastructure for foreign-language records. Coordinators spend up to four hours per patient case manually transcribing documents, and many routinely paste sensitive data into ChatGPT, DeepL or Papago. Under the 2026 PIPA amendments, that practice now exposes clinics to fines of up to 10% of annual revenue. There is no legal way to process foreign patient records at scale. Until now.

How Axonik works

Three steps. No integration required.

01

Secure Ingestion

The coordinator generates a white-label secure upload link branded for the clinic. The patient signs PIPA Article 23 Tiered Consent directly on their phone — no app download — and uploads documents in any format and any language.

02

Hybrid AI Processing

Documents are processed inside CSAP-certified Korean cloud infrastructure. OCR extracts text, PII is pseudonymized locally before any LLM touches it, then Naver HyperCLOVA X translates and structures the content. SNOMED CT maps the diagnoses to Korean KCD codes and, when needed, US CPT codes for Superbill generation.

03

Coordinator Dashboard

The coordinator sees a clean structured summary in Korean, ready to copy into any existing EMR (UBcare, BIT, Uisarang, BESTCare — no API integration required). Four hours of manual work becomes under two minutes of automated processing.

PIPA · 2026 amendments

Built for the 2026 PIPA amendments.
Not retrofitted.

Most foreign clinical AI vendors are scrambling to meet Korean privacy law. Axonik was designed inside it from day one — every architectural decision flows from PIPA Article 23, the MFDS Information Tool classification, and the new fines that took effect in 2026.

Compliant by design

Pseudonymization-before-LLM

Patient identifiers are replaced with tokens locally, inside the Korean cloud, before any data is sent to a language model.

Compliant by design

Zero-Data Retention

Source files are permanently deleted after processing. Only the structured Korean summary is kept, on the clinic's side.

Compliant by design

CSAP-certified infrastructure

Hosted exclusively on Korean cloud regions certified under the Cloud Security Assurance Program. No data ever leaves Korea.

Compliant by design

MFDS Notice 2026–4 classification

Operates as an Information Tool — outside the regulatory burden of medical-device software, while still meeting clinical-grade standards.

Compliant by design

Human-in-the-Loop

Every clinical summary is reviewed and approved by a licensed coordinator before reaching the surgeon. Axonik never makes autonomous decisions.

Pricing

One coordinator, ten-fold throughput.
