Aescuris — AI with
purpose and provenance.
The name Aescuris combines Aesculapius, the god of medicine, with Curis, the Latin word for care. Two roots, one promise: technology in service of medical practice.
Based in Karlsruhe.
For practices across the country.
Aescuris is a venture by the practices of Dr. Christian Schmidt and kalebru GmbH, based in Karlsruhe.
Our team combines deep understanding of medical practice with cutting-edge technological expertise. We work closely with physicians to develop solutions that truly work — in daily practice, under time pressure, with real patients.
Three principles guide us.
Data belongs to the patient and the practice — not to the cloud. Aescuris runs locally, without third-country data transfers. GDPR compliance is an architectural principle, not a checkbox.
Not a generic AI platform, but agents for real practice tasks: medical letters, GP contract management, coding. A digital medical assistant that knows your daily routine.
You start with the modules that address today's most pressing needs. New functions are added when they are ready — your installation grows with your requirements.
Trust is not a feature.
It is the architecture.
Medicine meets Technology.
Aescuris combines over 20 years of clinical practice with leading AI and digital transformation expertise — a constellation that is unique in the German-speaking health-tech market.
