General
What is Avicrine?
- Avicrine is an AI Diabetes Companion and diabetes clinic platform. Patients use it to track glucose, weight, blood pressure, water, insulin and medication, and to get plain-language explanations of lab reports. Clinics and doctors use the connected clinical side to follow those patients, review AI summaries and handle consultation requests. It is supplied through clinics rather than sold directly to patients.
What is an AI diabetes companion?
- An AI diabetes companion is software that keeps a person's day-to-day diabetes data in one place and uses AI to explain that data in ordinary language — for example describing what an HbA1c value represents or summarising a week of glucose readings. It is an educational and organisational tool, not a diagnostic device.
How can AI help with diabetes management?
- In Avicrine, AI is used for three concrete jobs: turning lab reports into plain-language explanations, answering everyday questions about the patient's own recorded data, and summarising a patient's recent record for the clinician reviewing a consultation request. AI does not diagnose, does not suggest doses and does not make clinical decisions.
What is a diabetes management platform?
- A diabetes management platform connects the patient side (tracking, education, questions) with the clinical side (patient records, monitoring, follow-up) so both work from the same information between appointments.
What should I look for in a diabetes management app?
- Practical things: whether it records the metrics you actually need, whether it supports your units (mg/dL or mmol/L), whether your clinic can see the data, how clearly it explains results, how your data is isolated and protected, and whether it is honest about not replacing your clinician.
For patients
How can I manage my diabetes more easily?
- Keeping one consistent record helps: log readings with their context, note weight and blood pressure, keep medication and insulin records, and bring those trends to your appointments. Avicrine exists to make that record easy to keep and easy to understand. Treatment decisions remain with your healthcare professional.
How can I track my diabetes in Avicrine?
- Log blood glucose in mg/dL or mmol/L with context such as fasting or post-meal, plus weight, blood pressure, water intake, insulin records and medication reminders. Everything appears in charts and a single history you can review over time.
How can technology help me communicate with my diabetes clinic?
- When your clinic uses Avicrine, the data you record is visible to your care team, and consultation requests you send arrive with a summary of your recent readings — so the conversation starts from real information instead of recall.
How can I ask my doctor about using a diabetes management platform?
- Describe the problem rather than the product: for example that your readings are scattered, or that you have questions between visits. Ask whether the clinic uses or is evaluating a digital patient-engagement platform. If the clinic's needs match, Avicrine may be one option it can evaluate.
Can I sign up for Avicrine myself?
- No. Accounts are created by the clinic, which issues your username and passcode. This keeps your record inside your clinic's workspace.
For endocrinologists
How can an endocrinologist manage diabetes patients more efficiently?
- By working from a continuous record rather than a snapshot. In Avicrine, patient-entered glucose, weight, blood pressure, insulin and medication data is available in the doctor workspace, consultation requests carry an AI-generated summary, and each patient has a structured health record consolidating tracking, reports and history.
How can endocrinologists improve patient engagement?
- Give patients a reason to record and a visible link to the clinic. Patients in Avicrine track their own metrics, read plain-language explanations of their reports, and can send consultation requests through the same platform their clinician reviews.
How can endocrinologists stay connected with patients between visits?
- Between-visit tracking data flows into the clinical workspace as patients record it, and consultation requests are handled in the same place, so the period between appointments is visible instead of blank.
What AI tools can endocrinologists use?
- Within Avicrine: AI explanations of uploaded lab reports, AI summaries of a patient's recent record attached to consultation requests, and a patient-facing AI companion that answers educational questions. All output is supportive; clinical judgement stays with the clinician.
For diabetes clinics
What software can help a diabetes clinic manage patients?
- Avicrine provides clinic-scoped patient management: clinic admins create staff and patient accounts, issue patient passcodes, enable or disable dashboard modules per clinic, and run patient tracking, records and consultation workflows in one platform.
How can a diabetes clinic improve patient engagement?
- By giving enrolled patients a tool they use daily and connecting it to the clinical team. In Avicrine the clinic controls who is enrolled, which modules are available, and how consultation requests are handled.
Can my diabetes clinic use Avicrine?
- Clinics can request a reviewed demo. After review the clinic receives its own workspace and administrator account, configures the platform, and invites the patients it considers appropriate.
How is clinic and patient data kept separate?
- Every record is scoped to the organisation that owns it and enforced with database-level access rules, with distinct roles for clinic admins, doctors and patients.
Where to read about diabetes itself
For clinical guidance on diabetes, use recognised medical organisations rather than any app, including the World Health Organization, American Diabetes Association and International Diabetes Federation. Your own clinic remains the right source for advice about your care.
