About
Tempus is a leading AI-powered precision medicine platform designed to transform patient care across oncology, cardiology, neurology, psychiatry, and radiology. At its core, Tempus has assembled the world's largest library of clinical and molecular data, paired with an intelligent operating system that makes that data actionable for healthcare providers, life sciences companies, and patients alike. For providers, Tempus offers genomic profiling, algorithmic diagnostic tests, digital pathology, and EHR integration. Its flagship AI assistant, Tempus ONE, helps clinicians make more informed treatment decisions at the point of care. The NEXT product identifies and closes gaps in care, while LENS provides access to multimodal real-world data (RWD) for research and analytics. ALGOS delivers algorithmic models connected to genomic assays for deeper clinical insight. For life sciences companies, Tempus supports every stage of the drug development pipeline—from early research and biological modeling to clinical trial enrollment, companion diagnostics, and commercialization. Its Tempus Studies and CRO services further streamline clinical trial execution. For patients, Tempus helps match individuals with relevant clinical trials and optimal therapy options based on their unique molecular and clinical profile. Its ECG-AI solution and Tempus Pixel suite extend AI-driven diagnostics into cardiology and radiology imaging. Tempus is built for enterprise healthcare organizations seeking to harness AI for earlier diagnosis, personalized treatment, and accelerated research.
