Why now?

Covid-19 has signalled fundamentally changes, as well as accelerated existing trends. Foremost among them, lab reports are being used outside traditional doctor-patient relationships, requiring innovative new privacy preserving technologies.

How do labs benefit?

In a time of increasing commoditization for diagnostics, labs are able to increase the value of their results and set themselves apart by offering verifiable, forgery-proof results. Partnership with Cerdio also grants labs access to a wider array of customers, from governments and businesses, to direct consumers.

How do businesses benefit?

Businesses are able to incorporate testing into their Covid-19 safety strategy, without handling sensitive health data. Cerdio also allows businesses prevent potential fraud or forgery.

How do patients benefit?

Patients have a more secure, private way to share their Covid-19 health status. Furthermore, with the ability to prove their results, patients gain greater mobility for travel and access to services.
