How do you evaluate health apps?

This blog post details the full set of processes by which we successfully go from 350,000 tools to the best ones, evaluated in TherAppX Core.

However, here's a short summary: Our platform uses advanced software to seek out and sort through Digital Health Tools (DHTs) as they become available in the market. Those with potential clinical value are screened further by a team composed of app analysts. Then, the most promising tools, or the ones that do not have issues (for e.g. in the domains of privacy, usability) go to a panel of clinicians (physicians, pharmacists, mental health experts, nurses, etc.) for an in-depth review. All this data allows us to power recommendation algorithms with only the best-in-class Digital Health Tools. Finally, we display all our reviews in an App library allowing healthcare providers to recommend DHTs to patients with confidence.
