How we started
Founded in 2018, xCures transformed from a navigator support function into healthcare AI for processing medical records.
xCures grew out of Cancer Commons, a non-profit built to help cancer patients navigate care when their records were scattered across health systems, labs, and clinics. The company started with a single problem: how to give patients and clinicians a complete picture of what was actually happening in their care.
Oncology was the proving ground. It is one of the hardest data environments in medicine, with records spread across more sources than any single team can manage. The first version of the engine applied AI-assisted retrieval, classification, and extraction to that problem.
By the end of 2023, the engine had matured enough to move beyond a single therapeutic area. xCures became condition-agnostic and available as a B2B platform, extending the same capabilities to any medical record, in any therapeutic area, for any qualified organization.
What drives us
Our Mission.
To find and organize all healthcare data, empowering insights that improve care for everyone.
Our vision is a world where Clinical Clarity drives better health outcomes for everyone.
Clinical clarity
Why clinical clarity matters.
Records are fragmented by default
Healthcare runs on records. For example, the median cancer patient has documents from 31 locations and 25 providers, scattered across systems that were never built to talk to each other. Clinicians make decisions within that fragmentation.
Volume without verification is noise
Providers review charts. Value-based care looks for gaps. Labs try to extract signals from it every day. Most platforms address the problem by moving more data faster. We took a different position: unstructured data leads to incomplete info, volume without verification is noise, and speed without traceability is risk.
Clinical clarity is what healthcare deserves
Clinical Clarity is the category we believe healthcare deserves and has not had. Clinical data that is structured, sourced, and decision-ready, delivered into the workflows people already use.
Every output traces to its source
Every output links back to its source document. Validated extractors, source-linked checklists, and accuracy benchmarks back the rigor. The work is turning fragmented records into information someone can act on with confidence.
Our history
Eight years of getting clinical data right.
2018
The company launched, and the mission was defined.
2018 to 2020
Early oncology focus. The engine applies AI to managing large-scale cancer patient data and the fragmented access that surrounds it.
2021

2022
Turnkey engine aligned to interoperability rules. Less than 30 days after the 21st Century Cures Act requirements took effect, the xCures engine was made ready as a turnkey solution.
End of 2023
Expansion to condition-agnostic SaaS. The engine opens to any medical record, in any therapeutic area, for any qualified organization.
