Curation
Dr. Know maintains ongoing relationships with industry experts. With the help of our tools, this expert community is building a library of content that is revolutionizing healthcare.
Expert content is regularly updated and always accessible to Dr. Know subscribers without the need for manual software updates.
Learn more about this content, our toolkit, and how to become a curator below.
Overview
The key ingredients to the Dr. Know curation story are: avatars, needles, and apps.
An avatar is a digital representation of any person, place, or thing. They are programs that run silently in the cloud on behalf of their real-world counterparts. They can store pieces of information (aka needles) in their memory. With expert curated enhancements, they can fetch, filter, organize, and synthesize this information from multiple sources and deliver new insights and notifications.
Needles are individual data elements that experts designate as the most widely useful from the much larger world of 'big data' haystacks. Dr. Know's community of industry experts continuously maintain a curated catalog of these needles from all industries (healthcare and beyond). Needles are then leveraged by apps in all sorts of creative ways.
Apps are generic containers that include a range of optional enhancements, including: user experiences (UXs), artificial intelligence (via Javascript, models, etc), reporting language, and much more. Apps are the lifeblood of avatars and are used throughout our products, services, and partner integrations.
Simulation
Use the Dr. Know simulator to test and troubleshoot your apps.
The development process is straightforward and optimized for dual screens. Develop your apps on one screen using App Builder and test them on another using Dr. Know's built-in simulator.
For curators timid about scripting (not required), you can make life even easier by loading our pre-defined script templates into an Elgato Stream Deck device (not included).
Learn more about app simulation at our online Support Center.
