About Eka Care

Eka Care is a health AI company on a mission to make world-class clinical intelligence available to every doctor, patient, and healthcare enterprise.

We build the models, data infrastructure, and clinical workflows that turn everyday care (a consultation, a prescription, a lab report) into structured, interoperable health data, so that better decisions can be made at the point of care and across the enterprise, whether that is a hospital, a diagnostic lab, or an insurer.

Our products, EkaScribe, EkaDoc, EkaAgents, EkaAPIs and EkaPHR, cover the full span of clinical, patient, and enterprise use cases, and plug into national digital health infrastructure such as India's Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission.

- Label medical images: body region, modality, view and visible findings

- Review and adjudicate other annotators' work (Track 3)
