About Ironsides Medical
Ironsides Medical is committed to transforming clinical care through the power of artificial intelligence and machine learning. Our mission is to develop and deploy cutting-edge diagnostic and therapeutic tools that improve health outcomes and enhance decision-making at the point of care.
Our first product, OtoCompanion™, addresses a long-standing challenge in pediatrics: the accurate diagnosis of ear infections. While published studies report diagnostic accuracy as low as 50–60% among physicians, our AI-powered system, OtoCompanion™, has achieved an accuracy of 92% in detecting fluid behind the eardrum — a key indicator of infection.

Our broader vision is to shift the diagnostic paradigm across multiple conditions — enabling more personalized, efficient, and accessible care for patients and clinicians alike.
