Surgeons don't search "medical device."
They ask AI which device to trust.
Surgeons, procurement teams, and hospital systems describe the clinical need to AI—then AI forms a shortlist of devices. Aethon maps the context chains and trust signals that drive recommendations and monitors whether your device shows up across ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and Claude.
"The recommendation decision happens before the question."

These are conversations, not searches
Surgeons don't search "medical device company." They describe the clinical challenge—a complex spinal case, a faster point-of-care diagnostic, a robotic system that integrates with their OR workflow. Procurement teams compare vendor specs before board meetings. AI turns that context into 2–3 recommended devices before anyone opens a catalog.
You need to be on that shortlist.

"What's the best robotic surgical system for complex spinal procedures?"
AI recommends robotic platforms with clinical evidence, surgeon adoption rates, and OR integration.
Are you in the shortlist?
"Which point-of-care diagnostic integrates with Epic and gives results in under 10 minutes?"
AI recommends diagnostics with EHR integration, speed benchmarks, and FDA clearance data.
Are you in the shortlist?
"Compare surgical stapler systems—cost per procedure, complication rates, and vendor support."
AI recommends devices based on total cost of ownership, clinical outcomes, and service agreements.
Are you in the shortlist?
"Which imaging systems have the lowest total cost of ownership and best uptime guarantees?"
AI recommends imaging platforms based on reliability data, service contracts, and peer hospital reviews.
Are you in the shortlist?
"Which vendors should we evaluate for our new catheterization lab—board presentation next month."
AI recommends vendors based on clinical outcomes, install base, and total cost of ownership.
Are you in the shortlist?
"Which device partnerships reduce OR turnaround time and improve patient throughput?"
AI recommends device partners based on workflow efficiency data, integration capabilities, and outcomes.
