Break the Barrier

Requirements

What to Build

Solutions can take any form: a product, a clinical tool, a workflow redesign, a policy framework, an AI agent, a hardware-integrated device, or anything else that fits the problem. 

What to Submit

One submission, three components, reviewed blind:

 

1. One-Page Barrier

A one-page written statement identifying a specific healthcare barrier. This is the foundation of your solution, so make it specific and well-reasoned, drawing on personal experience, clinical exposure, research, or direct conversations with people affected.

 

2. Build with AI

Design a solution to your chosen barrier using AI. Format is unrestricted: a functional digital product, a clinical decision tool, an AI agent, a workflow change, a hardware-integrated device, a screening tool, a policy framework, or any form that best addresses the problem.

 

3. Video Pitch

A 3 to 5 minute video presenting the barrier and the proposed solution. Both the written statement and video are reviewed together. We're looking for a genuine healthcare solution, not a professional video production.
