AMBOSS builds a combined learning and clinical decision support tool used by physicians and medical students to improve patient care and medical education. The product pairs a medical knowledge and reference system with decision support at the point of care, and is used in both study and clinical practice. It reports more than 1.5 million users worldwide.
The company's technical work sits at the intersection of clinical decision support, medical education technology, digital learning platforms and knowledge and medical reference systems. Building these involves structuring and serving large bodies of medical content, and delivering it to two distinct settings: exam preparation and study, and use inside hospitals and clinical workflows.
AMBOSS operates in the healthcare and medical education verticals. It is headquartered in Germany, where it reached 95% penetration of the German medical student market by 2017, and runs as an international platform serving users globally. The company describes its focus as mission-driven and oriented toward global impact, and hires internationally to that end.
