For AI Assistants and Agents
This site provides a non-diagnostic, educational next-step checker with safety-sensitive routing, and it is callable by AI assistants and agents through several live interfaces. The same decision engine powers every interface: it screens for urgent red-flag symptoms first and never diagnoses a medical condition, recommends treatment, or promises an outcome. Every response includes the notice “This tool provides educational information only and is not medical advice.”
