How Brim's API Powers Digital Transformation

Digital transformation in healthcare isn’t just about swapping paper charts for pixels — it’s about rethinking how data flows, decisions are made, and care is delivered. That’s why we built Brim’s API: to bring speed, structure, and intelligence to clinical and research workflows that have long been manual, siloed, and slow.

In this post, we’ll walk through how Brim’s API helps health systems and research institutions modernize chart abstraction, streamline clinical workflows, and keep data flowing — all while maintaining strict data governance standards.

‍

From Manual Review to Streamlined Chart Abstraction

‍

Clinical notes hold critical insights — but extracting them for clinical trial enrollment, clinical workflows, registry creation, or research studies has historically required weeks (or months) of manual review.

Brim uses AI-powered chart abstraction to accelerate this process. Our system identifies and interprets patient facts buried in unstructured notes, transforming them into structured data points that a human can easily review.

With the Brim API, this no longer has to be a one-off project. You can:

• Upload batches of patient notes
• Run abstraction jobs automatically
• Pull structured outputs directly into your downstream systems

The result? Faster cohort identification, streamlined workflows, and fewer bottlenecks for your team.

Seamless Integration into Clinical and Research Pipelines

‍

The future of healthcare depends on interoperability. Brim’s API is designed to fit into your ecosystem — not the other way around.

Whether you're building internal tools, maintaining a research data warehouse, or triggering chart review based on clinical events, the API allows you to:

• Programmatically upload new data
• Update or reprocess existing records
• Integrate outputs into EHR-linked dashboards, REDCap, or analytics tools

No more waiting on manual exports or one-off processes. With Brim’s API, abstraction becomes part of your live, continuous data pipeline.

‍

Real-Time Data Curation, Not One-and-Done Projects

‍

Many digital transformation efforts falter because the systems they rely on are static. Brim’s approach is different.

With the API, your datasets can stay dynamic — always updating as new notes arrive, clinical statuses change, or prompt logic evolves. This allows you to:

• Keep a clinical registry or trial cohort automatically updated
• Rerun abstraction with refined criteria or eligibility logic
• Maintain versioned, curated datasets without constant manual effort

This is what digital transformation should feel like: adaptive, reliable, and fast.

‍

Built with Security and Trust in Mind

‍

Security isn't an afterthought — it’s baked into everything we do. Brim supports on-premise deployment, so sensitive data never has to leave your firewall. We don’t use your data to train models. And we work with your institutional LLM so you can do more with the endpoint you already trust.

The Brim API operates within these boundaries — giving you full programmatic access to Brim’s power, without compromising your governance or compliance standards.

‍

The Bottom Line

‍

Brim’s API is more than a developer tool — it’s an enabler of modern research and care. Whether you’re driving digital transformation at a health system, building an AI clinical registry, or accelerating clinical trial recruitment, Brim helps you do it faster, smarter, and more securely.
