#31 - Bid - A Match-Making App

In todays podcast, Jeff Smith introduces a new quality management app idea, called Quali, that could reduce the operating and infrastructural expenses for healthcare companies so that they can focus more financially on R&D. Jeff highlights the importance of gross margin for any business, and how the greater the gross margin the more revenue that can be allocated to R&D or other areas to, in turn, grow the business. Quali would act as an AI Agent GPT that is able to store files, amended documents and more, while also being able to do the amending or creating of documents. Jeff’s goal is efficiency. With the help of AI, business operations will only be getting quicker, easier, and more economic!

Jeff Smith discussed the development of an AI healthcare-related app called "Rudy Sales Assistant". The app, designed to eliminate the need for a Customer Relationship Manager (CRM), is intended to make note-taking and data entry easier for salespeople. Despite the CRM's deep rootedness in the enterprise, the app is expected to streamline the sales process by tracking salespeople's activities and suggesting a weekly schedule. The Rudy App utilizes data created by the salesperson's mobile phone usage to provide reports on their activities, including driving routes, phone usage, and health data. The ultimate goal is to create an application that can suggest a weekly schedule for the salesperson. The host expressed their enthusiasm for the app and their vision for it to foster idea exchange and credibility in the field of healthcare and AI enterprise software.

The application, named "The Literature", aims to assist in accessing and understanding clinical papers, addressing the challenge of poorly understood literature in the healthcare sector.  Jeff highlighted the potential of generative AI and its ability to process large amounts of information. The idea is to build an app on a chat platform, allowing users to ask for relevant literature on a specific topic.
