Sanoste Digital Trainer Physiotherapy solution with AI and gamification Challenges The physiotherapy market is typically very labor intensive and not scalable. Therefore in many countries there is already now a great shortage of physiotherapists.

Sanoste Digital Trainer includes gamification elements of positive feedback and visual rewards to motivate the end-user to perform the home exercise. Many end-users are motivated as they know that their physiotherapist has a view of their progress.

On the other hand the end-users adhere poorly to the home exercise prescribed by the physiotherapist. Non-adherence has been shown to be as high as 80 %.

Business model The business model is SaaS (Software as a Service) based on monthly subscription with annual contract. 3 different price plans based on the number of patients the physiotherapy is treating.

Solution Sanoste Digital Trainer offers machine learning based AI that tracks the human motion automatically in real-time. The AI algorithm has been trained to track 12 main joints (shoulders, elbows, wrists, hips, knees and ankles). This way, Sanoste Digital Trainer analyzes the efficiency of physiotherapy treatment.

Traction The solution has been developed together with the users and it is now being tested with real patients. We have carried out a pilot in neurological rehabilitation center with great results. In the city of Oulu they are now testing it in home rehabilitation.

The end-user performs the home exercise program prescribed by the physiotherapist in front of a laptop computer. Sanoste Digital Trainer is truly AI-based and no extra devices nor sensors are needed for tracking the movement.
