A Medlane visit
10:00 → 10:15
One patient’s visit, in their words. Each step shows the part of Medlane doing the work.
Day before1 / 8
9:52
They knew I’d arrived before I reached the counter.
Behind it
Arrival alerts
An “I’m here” tap tells the front desk who arrived, which doctor and which room.
10:00
I was seen at 10:00 sharp.
Behind it
On-time engine
Learns each doctor’s pace, spots delays early and tells patients before they leave home.
10:07
My prescription was on WhatsApp before I stood up.
Behind it
Scribe agent
Drafts the prescription from the consult. The doctor checks and signs; it goes to the pharmacy and the patient’s phone.
10:09
My scan was booked before I left the room.
Behind it
Next-step booking
The doctor’s orders turn into bookings, with preparation instructions sent to the patient.
10:11
They fitted an eye check in right before my scan.
Behind it
Visit bundling
Sees all your appointments across departments and fits them into one trip.
10:13
“We’ll call you after the doctor sees your report.”
Behind it
Closed-loop results
Every result goes to the doctor as a task. The hospital calls the patient. Nothing gets lost.
10:15
No paper. Not a single sheet.
Behind it
Paperless by default
Bills, reports and consent forms go to WhatsApp. Printers still work when you need them.
Old hospital software: 40 clicks. Medlane: 2 taps.
The same OPD visit — book, consult, prescribe, bill.

Questions, answered
Is Medlane really free?
Yes. You can run it on your own servers for free, forever, under the AGPL open-source licence. You pay only if you want us to host and run it for you.
Does it work in Tamil and Hindi?
Yes. Staff can type or speak in Tamil, Hindi, English or a mix — voice is optional. Patients get messages in their own language.
Does the AI make medical decisions?
No. AI drafts notes and prescriptions, and a doctor always checks and signs them. Safety checks such as allergies and drug interactions use fixed, tested rules, not AI.
What happens if the internet goes down?
A small box in your hospital keeps outpatients, billing, pharmacy and printing running, and syncs everything when you are back online.
Can we take our data out?
Any time. Your data exports in open formats. There is no lock-in.
Is Medlane certified?
Not yet. Medlane is ABDM-ready, built for DPDP and designed to NABH HIS/EMR standards. We will say “certified” only once it is.
