Intelligencethat stayswith the signal.

QualiMed AI develops the Closed-Loop Node—safety-constrained intelligence that connects a health signal to context, an approved response, and verified follow-through. LimbSense AI is its first research application.

This website describes research-stage technology—not a diagnostic device, treatment service, replacement for clinical care, or emergency resource.

Technology

One connected intelligence architecture.

The Closed-Loop Node brings wearable sensing, personal context, bounded agent behaviour, and action verification into one observable research system.

AI

Safety-constrained agents

Controlled workflows designed to explain, ask, remind, coordinate, and escalate within explicit boundaries.

WS

Wearable sensing

Hardware-agnostic research across smart textiles, insoles, liners, sensor pods, and connected devices.

PS

Personal-state intelligence

Longitudinal models that compare a new signal with a person’s own recent pattern while keeping uncertainty visible.

AV

Action verification

Research infrastructure that follows a signal beyond the alert and records whether the next step was completed.

Flagship R&D project

The Closed-Loop Node.
An alert isn't the outcome. Action is.

Traditional monitoring often ends with a notification. The Closed-Loop Node follows what happens next—and whether the intended action was completed.

01

Sense

Collect longitudinal signals from a wearable, person, or connected workflow.

02

Validate

Check quality, freshness, provenance, completeness, and confidence.

03

Understand

Compare the change with personal history, context, and approved rules.

04

Act

Select a bounded prompt, check-in, reminder, or escalation pathway.

05

Confirm

Verify that the requested follow-through occurred—or remains unresolved.

06

Learn

Measure the workflow offline and improve future research versions.

Return to the signal. Outcomes become part of the next observable state—without silently changing production behaviour.

Guardian Engine · inside the Node

The intelligence inside every transition.

Inside the Node, the Guardian Engine evaluates signal quality and context, selects only permitted actions, and records follow-through.

Signal Intelligence

Ingests multimodal data and evaluates integrity, freshness, missingness, and signal confidence.

PS

Personal State

Maintains a longitudinal research view of individual patterns, context, and recent change.

SA

Safety-Constrained Agent

Chooses only from approved communication, support, and escalation workflows.

AV

Action Verification

Tracks acknowledgement, consent, follow-through, and unresolved workflow states.

01Research Program 01

LimbSense AI

Closed-loop intelligence for diabetic foot monitoring research.

LimbSense AI applies the Closed-Loop Node to diabetic foot-monitoring research. It studies whether multimodal sensing and personal-state modelling can support timely awareness and safer follow-through between clinical visits.

Research-stage scope

No diagnostic, treatment, or clinical-performance claims. Initial work uses simulated or non-identifiable data and off-the-shelf sensing components.

Example bounded language

“Your foot pattern looks different from your recent normal. Please check your foot today. If you notice a concerning change, contact your healthcare provider promptly.”

Research focus

What happens after the signal changes?

We study whether a bounded system can turn a reliable signal into an appropriate, traceable next step.

Safety architecture

Clear operating boundaries.

Research workflows use explicit permissions, controlled actions, visible uncertainty, human review, and a complete decision trace.

01

No autonomous diagnosis

Research outputs are not presented as a clinical diagnosis.

02

No autonomous treatment

The system does not prescribe, select, or change treatment.

03

Controlled escalation pathways

Agents operate inside predefined, testable workflow boundaries.

04

Human review and traceability

Clinical judgment remains with qualified people, while every system decision remains inspectable.

Mission

Keep intelligence connected to the signal, the person, and the outcome.

Without moving clinical judgment out of human hands.
