Personalized Medicine Meets Scalable Insight
Integrating Sliders.AI into Medtronic could drive transformative gains across clinical experience (frontend) and operational intelligence (backend). Over five years, this impact could yield $300M–$800M+ in net value. Here’s how:
Frontend: Patient and Provider Interface
1. Patient-Centric Treatment Tuning
Sliders let patients express nuanced tradeoffs like “comfort vs. effectiveness,” or “recovery time vs. invasiveness.”
Use cases: cardiac devices, diabetes care, neurostimulation
Outcome: Better-tailored therapies, higher satisfaction, fewer returns
2. Shared Decision-Making Tools
Sliders align physician and patient priorities during consultations
Outcome: Greater trust, reduced litigation, and better health outcomes
3. Clinical Trial Matching
Participants express risk and recovery preferences using sliders
Outcome: Faster enrollment, better retention, and richer data
Estimated 5-Year Frontend Impact: $120M–$300M
Backend: Data, R&D, and Strategic Intelligence
1. Richer Patient Feedback Loops
Sliders collect structured, post-use feedback across devices
Outcome: Improves design, quality, and patient-centric innovation
2. R&D Prioritization
Sliders guide tradeoff modeling in product investment and go-to-market timing
Outcome: Fewer failed launches, better capital efficiency
3. Hospital Partner Dashboards
Hospitals use sliders to express value priorities (durability, cost, etc.)
Outcome: Better fit with B2B buying behavior and local system needs
Estimated 5-Year Backend Impact: $180M–$500M
Total 5-Year Cumulative Impact
| Segment | Low Estimate | High Estimate |
|---|---|---|
| Frontend UX | $120M | $300M |
| Backend Ops | $180M | $500M |
| Total | $300M | $800M |
Strategic Edge
- Humanized AI: Understands not just biology, but patient values
- Real-World Insights: Connects research with in-the-field experience
- Regulatory Differentiation: More patient-friendly data flow improves FDA and global review positioning
