Read full description

INSIGHT PROSTATE - the human prostate expedition INSIGHT PROSTATE is designed to increase the understanding and education of patients and their families about prostate cancer and to enrich the exchange between healthcare professionals and patients. INSIGHT PROSTATE was developed to provide a comprehensive explanation of prostate cancer, from the anatomy of the prostate and the disease itself to diagnostic methods and treatment options, in both German and English. It is intended to contribute to improved doctor-patient interaction and improved cooperation in the healthcare system. The initiative is based on a survey that looked at the needs of doctors with regard to the organization of the healthcare system and medical practice. It became clear that doctors want targeted digital tools for patient education that support them in their medical practice. INSIGHT PROSTATE is a direct response to this demand and is intended to help improve the exchange between patients, relatives and doctors in relation to prostate cancer. Patients and relatives can use the app for well-founded information and education, as the handling is very visual, intuitive and easy to understand, and thus play a greater role in treatment decisions. In addition to patients and relatives, the INSIGHT PROSTATE app also offers an important educational resource for medical students and future urologists in their specialist training. It provides a detailed and interactive overview of the anatomy of the prostate and the stages of prostate cancer. With the help of ARKit, INSIGHT PROSTATE allows users to easily scan their physical environment and place the three-dimensional prostate. Our virtual assistant ANI guides you through the different states of the prostate. Embark on a journey through the prostate, from macroscopic to microscopic anatomy, and explore the structures of the prostate in unprecedented detail. In addition to the anatomically correct representations, INSIGHT PROSTATE has also visualized pathological changes and made them understandable. This is the first time INSIGHT PROSTATE has attempted to visualize these prostate diseases with anatomically correct 3D representations in order to close the knowledge gap for patients. The 'Insight Apps' have won the following awards: INSIGHT HEART - The human heart expedition - Platinum at the 2021 MUSE Creative Awards - German Design Award Winner 2019 – Excellent Communications Design - Apple Keynote 2017 (Demo Area) – USA / Cupertino, Sept 12 - Apple, BEST OF 2017 – Tech & Innovation, Australia - Apple, BEST OF 2017 – Tech & Innovation, New Zealand - Apple, BEST OF 2017 – Tech & Innovation, USA INSIGHT KIDNEY - Winner of the 'German Medical Award 2023' INSIGHT LUNG - The human lung expedition - Winner of the 'German Medical Award 2021' - Platinum at the 'Muse Creative Awards 2021' - Gold at the 'Best Mobile App Awards 2021'

Verdict

The call

INSIGHT PROSTATE's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 4 months). On price, review sentiment, ads and monetization model there is nothing between them.
