The Challenge We Solve
Inspection data show that staff competency is the #1 deficiency cited in IVF laboratory audits. Traditional assessments—one or two embryo images every six months, paper logbooks, scattered spreadsheets—can’t keep pace with evolving standards or modern workloads. Labs need:
- Objective, repeatable evaluations of embryology & andrology skills
- Continuous documentation to satisfy CLIA, CAP, and WHO auditors
- Rapid feedback loops to correct errors before they affect patient care
Our Solution in One App
ART Compass is the first HIPAA-compliant mobile platform that delivers unlimited, customizable competency assessments and real-time QA tools—right to the devices your team already uses.
| Core Feature | What It Means for Your Lab |
|---|---|
| Multimedia Testing | High-resolution images & videos of embryos, sperm, and lab procedures refresh monthly to eliminate answer memorization. |
| Custom Modules | Match your lab’s grading scales, SOPs, KPIs—even niche procedures like biopsy staging or FDA documentation. |
| Real-Time Dashboards | Directors compare junior vs. senior staff, track trends, and export audit-ready reports in seconds. |
| Automated Remediation | When gaps appear, the app issues SOP updates, tutorial videos, and retest deadlines—then records completion. |
| End-to-End Compliance | Built to satisfy all six CLIA competency elements + WHO recommendations, with encrypted, timestamped records. |
