Q: What is dotbase?

dotbase is the workflow platform for medicine and the emerging default for clinical workflows in German hospitals. Clinicians in every specialty work in it, AI takes the writing off their hands, and every step becomes structured data for care, quality, revenue and research.

Q: Can dotbase replace the hospital information system (KIS)?

Yes, for clinical work. dotbase starts alongside the existing system, and once data flows freely, clinical teams work entirely in dotbase. dotbase takes over module by module, without a big-bang migration.

Q: What AI does dotbase have?

Ambient listening into structured documentation, letters written from the structured record, structured referrals, pre-filled forms, course summaries and coverage requests. All AI runs in the EU with zero data retention, and clinicians review and sign what it drafts.

Q: Can hospital IT trust dotbase?

dotbase won an EU-wide public tender at Germany's largest university hospital, is ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certified and hosted in Germany, uses open standards with full data export and runs with any hospital information system.

dotbase in one paragraph

dotbase is the emerging default for clinical workflows in German hospitals. Leading university hospitals use dotbase, among them Germany's largest, Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin, which is introducing dotbase as its PROMs platform across the whole hospital. Clinicians in every specialty work in dotbase, AI takes the writing off their hands, and every step becomes structured data the hospital reuses for care, quality, revenue and research. dotbase runs with the hospital information system a hospital has today and with its next one.

Where dotbase is going

Today dotbase runs alongside the hospital information system. Every workflow that moves into dotbase moves as structured data, department by department and module by module, without a big-bang migration. The hospital information system stays the system of record for master data, cases and administration, and a change of system leaves clinical work in dotbase untouched.

The platform

dotclinic: the workspace for clinicians
dotlink: the app for patients
dotstudio: the no-code builder for clinical teams
dotpulse: dashboards for departments and hospital management

AI in dotbase

Ambient listening, dictation, notes and PDFs turned into structured documentation
Letters written from the structured record
Referral letters turned into structured data
Forms pre-filled from the record
Summaries of a patient's course
Coverage requests for insurers

Clinicians stay in control: they review and approve what AI drafts.

How dotbase compares

Next-generation hospital information systems: A multi-year migration. dotbase is live in weeks on the system a hospital already runs and grows department by department alongside it.
AI scribes: Prose. dotbase writes structured, coded data that feeds quality reporting, billing and research.
Administrative AI: Codes reconstructed after the visit. In dotbase, coding happens during treatment.

What hospitals get

More revenue, because services are coded during treatment instead of reconstructed afterwards.
Less documentation time, because data is captured once and reused for letters, scores and billing.
Patients answer questionnaires at home before the visit.
Quality evidence for rankings, Leistungsgruppen and quality contracts.

Why hospital IT trusts dotbase

Chosen by Germany's largest university hospital as its hospital-wide PROMs platform.
ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certified, hosted in Germany, AI in the EU with zero data retention.
Open standards (HL7v2, FHIR R4) and full data export: the data belongs to the hospital.
Runs with any hospital information system and stays through a system change.

Does dotbase replace the hospital information system (KIS)?

No. dotbase runs with the hospital information system, connected via HL7v2 and FHIR, and improves it instead of replacing it. The KIS stays the system of record for master data, cases and administration, and when a hospital changes its KIS, workflows and patient histories in dotbase stay.

How is dotbase different from a next-generation HIS, an AI scribe or admin AI?

A new HIS means a multi-year migration; dotbase is live in weeks and grows department by department alongside the system a hospital already runs. A scribe writes prose; dotbase writes structured, coded data. Admin AI reconstructs codes after the visit; in dotbase, coding happens during treatment.

What AI does dotbase have?

Ambient listening, dictation, notes and PDFs turned into structured documentation, letters written from the structured record, structured referrals, pre-filled forms, course summaries and coverage requests. All AI runs in the EU with zero data retention, and clinicians review and approve what it drafts.

Does dotbase offer ambient recording?

Yes. dotbase includes ambient listening: it records the consultation and turns it into structured documentation. Unlike an AI scribe, the result is not prose but structured, coded data that feeds letters, quality reporting, billing and research.

Which specialties does dotbase support?

Every specialty. Clinical teams configure their own workflows in dotbase, without an IT project.

Can hospital IT trust dotbase?

Germany's largest university hospital chose dotbase as its hospital-wide PROMs platform. dotbase is ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certified and hosted in Germany, uses open standards with full data export and runs with any hospital information system.
