More about us

WHO IT'S FOR

Intelligence designed for how you work

Different roles. Shared responsibility: safe, early detection at scale.

For Radiologists

Read faster, catch more, with AI that fits your workflow

AI-assisted triage, automated reporting, and a Safety Net that flags what you might miss — directly in your viewer, in under 30 seconds.

80% of normal cases pre-reported

Adjustable thresholds, not fixed black box outputs

Lesion-level context, not binary CAD marks

See it in action

For Screening Programmes

Screen more women at higher quality — without adding staff

Normal case triage, pre-written reports, and consensus support across your centres. Validated in 460,000 real-world screening exams.

Deployed across 40% of Germany's national screening — and expanding across Europe

Normal cases triage + Safety net in one workflow

Automated reporting for unremarkable exams

Explore the workflow

For Policymakers & Health Authorities

The most transparent AI in population screening

Configurable thresholds, continuous monitoring, quarterly outcome reviews, and the only AI certified for independent reading. Built for accountability at national scale.

Validated in PRAIM (460K participants)

CE IIb certified

Continous monitoring linked to clinical outcomes

OUR CORE OFFERINGS

What Vara delivers

Safety net

Vara AI runs in the background on every case, flagging potentially missed findings so radiologists can take a second look — before it's too late.

Normal triaging

Routine cases are pre-filtered and prioritized automatically, freeing radiologists to focus their attention where it matters most: complex and high-risk reads.

USER STORIES

Building strong relationships with our users

“I have seen the impact of Vara on the metrics that count: cancer detection rate and reduction of false positives while helping me manage the workload. The future of our profession is intimately tied to AI and it is better for it.”

Dr. Thilo Töllner

Head of Mammography, Klinik Dr. Hancken, Stade, Germany

“Traditional approaches like CAD can actually increase the cognitive load. Vara's decision referral approach to AI and seamless integration into my workflow allows me to leverage my individual strengths.”

Head of Mammography, Med360, Leverkusen, Germany
