A ship in a port is safe
but that’s not what ships are made for.


We at SHIP AI strive for the fusion of research and clinical applicability to bring forward a valuable clinical impact. In that context, the SHIP backend allows for tackling state-of-the-art research questions and simultaneously focusing on clinical relevance. The resulting solutions range from classification, segmentation, and multimodality to generative tasks, which is why our expertise is highly diversified.
