About Verityn

Built from inside the reading room.

Verityn Ltd is registered in England and Wales. We are a London-based team of radiologists, machine learning engineers, and clinical quality specialists working on one problem: making the second read possible on every study.

The founding story

It started with a finding that should not have waited.

Dr. Amara Nkomo spent thirteen years reading thoracic and emergency imaging in the NHS before founding Verityn. The pattern that prompted her was consistent: findings that surfaced on a formal second read had frequently been present, and visible, on an earlier film. Not missed through lack of skill. Missed because attention is finite and lists are long.

Tom Fairbrother had spent a decade building detection and localisation models and cared about one thing above correctness: calibration. A model that tells a clinician it is 94% confident should be right 94% of the time at that score. He had seen too many products that were not.

They started Verityn in March 2023 on a principle both agreed on: the tool has to show its reasons. A confident flag without a heatmap and a plain-language explanation is not useful to a working radiologist. It is noise.

Mission and principles

Useful to the clinician. Honest about what it is.

Verityn is not trying to replace radiologists. It is trying to give every radiologist an instrument that reads alongside them without fatigue, without distraction, and without guessing.

01

Honest decision support

Verityn flags candidates and shows its reasons. It does not diagnose, and it does not report on its own. Any figure we quote is accompanied by the method that produced it.

02

The clinician decides

Every flag is a prompt to look again. The radiologist reviews, can dismiss, and signs the report. Verityn is in the loop, not in charge.

03

Calibrated and explainable

A confidence value should mean what it says. A heatmap should show what actually drew the flag. We hold ourselves to the standard of a clinical instrument, not a software product.

04

Privacy first

Identifiable imaging data can stay on your own infrastructure. On-premise and private-cloud deployment is available from the Practice plan, so data need not leave your environment.

The team

Radiologists and engineers. Based in London.

14 people across clinical affairs, machine learning, regulatory, and engineering. All UK-based. Fictional for this preview, representative of the team Verityn is building.

How we work

Four commitments we hold ourselves to.

01

We publish the method

When we quote a number, we describe how it was measured. Reader studies compare unaided reads against Verityn-assisted reads on de-identified retrospective datasets. The figures are in our validation summary.

02

We scope to what the model can do

Verityn reads the modalities it was trained and evaluated on. We do not generalise beyond the evidence and we are explicit about what is not yet in scope.

03

We keep the radiologist in control

The audit trail, the dismiss button, and the confidence heatmap all exist for the same reason: the radiologist must be able to interrogate, challenge, and override the model on every study.

04

We evolve with clinical feedback

Post-market surveillance is not a regulatory formality for us. What readers flag as unhelpful or wrong goes directly back into model and evaluation planning.

Give every read a second pair of eyes.

Verityn is decision support, built to the standard of a clinical instrument. The clinician always decides. Start free today, or talk to the clinical team.
