Badge was built from the ground-up for nursing caregivers.
Physical tactile button and touch screen
Patient and nurse-facing microphones
Topside LED indicator indicates status:
White - Standby
Green - Listening (after saying “Hey Omni”)
Amber - Recording patient interaction
Red - Do Not Disturb (DND) enabled
In DND, Badge won’t record patient interactions or accept calls.
40g, lighter than Vocera B3000 (53.5g) and Smartbadge (89g)
6 x 3.2 x 1.5cm, smaller than Vocera B3000 and Smartbadge
16-hour swappable battery
At home in the hospital.
Omni Engine is a large language model we’re finetuning for Flowsheet entry with terabytes of research on patient care and nursing workflows.
-
Engine lets nurses chart in two ways: explicitly dictating entries or just by having a natural conversation with the patient.
Whether nurses say, outside the room: “Hey Omni, Chart Bed 8 denies pain, voided 400mL.”
Or just ask the patient: “Are you in any pain?” — “No.” — “Alright, I’m gonna empty your urinal before I leave, 400mL.”
Engine listens, extracts key details, and charts them appropriately without extra steps.

Badge can assist with documenting admissions, head-to-toe assessments, vital signs, I&Os, mobility/positioning, hygiene and ADLs, dressing changes, drain outputs, patient education, and restraints.
All Flowsheet entries are “pended" (not finalized) until a nurse verifies them at a workstation.

We’re targeting Llama3-OmniEngine’s benchmark performance on MedMCQA, MMLU College Medicine, and MMLU Biology datasets to surpass that of leading LLMs, including:
OpenAI’s GPT-4
Google’s USMLE-passing Med-PaLM-1 and Med-PaLM-2.

A pocketable nursing aide.
Badge reduces barriers to care wherever possible.
-
Engine uses Real-Time Staff Location Systems to automate high volume patient charting. When a nurse enters a patient’s room, Badge automatically starts listening and documents for that patient only.
No need to tag which patient is being documented — Engine handles it in the background, hands-free.
Spring 2025
-
Break down language barriers without slowing down care. Engine’s real-time translation mode (RTTM) ensures that language differences don’t delay critical communication.
RTTM is automatically enabled when a language other than English is spoken or when entering a non-English-speaking patient’s room. Support for Spanish, French, and Mandarin is planned for Summer 2025. Charting capabilities will not be degraded while using RTTM.
Summer 2025
-
Engine keeps track of tasks and converts basic units so nurses don’t have to.
“Remind me to get vitals on Bed 10 in 30 minutes.”
“How many millileters is seven ounces?”
“Remind me to reassess Bed 9’s pain at 3:00 PM.”

Putting privacy first.
Badge doesn’t store information on caregivers or their patients.
-
Badge doesn’t store any information on call response time or patient visit durations. After creating an entry in the Flowsheet, audio recordings and transcriptions are permanently deleted in the cloud and on-device.
Data is not collected to improve Omni Engine’s performance.
