Orthogonal

Orthogonal is a software developer for Software as a Medical Device (SaMD), digital therapeutics (DTx) and connected medical devices. We work with change agents who are responsible for digital transformation at medical device and diagnostics manufacturers. These leaders need to accelerate their pipeline of product innovation to modernize patient care and gain a competitive advantage. Orthogonal applies deep experience in SaMD and the power of fast feedback loops to rapidly develop, successfully launch, and continuously improve connected, compliant products-and we collaborate with our clients to build their own rapid SaMD development engines. Over the last 10 years, we've helped a wide variety of firms develop and bring their regulated/connected devices to market. Almost twenty years ago, we began our consulting work to create great software products in a range of industries, including financial services, education, research, and healthcare. We spent nearly a decade working with leading-edge fast feedback loop techniques that have now become recognized best practices such as Agile software development (with XP, Scrum, and Kanban), Lean User Experience (Lean UX), and Lean Startup. Nearly a decade ago, we got a glimpse of digital healthcare and the enormous potential of the cloud, IoT, and smartphones, and the potential impact of medical device software. Realizing that's what we wanted to focus our energies on exclusively, we narrowed our focus to the development of SaMD, DTx and connected medical devices. We've never looked back. Our team gets up every day excited to help move the needle on healthcare. For almost ten years, we've helped a wide variety of firms develop and bring their regulated/connected devices to market. We're even more excited about the next ten years and what we will help accomplish during The Great Acceleration of Digital Health.
