Project looks good. Can you give us an update on its development and a roadmap for this project?
Sure thing - thanks for your interest and questions.
The beta software is in use now, every day, by more than 10 real companies - sports clubs, churches, disability services groups, performing arts and . They are using it to monitor the accreditations of their staff, and we've been getting feedback from them about priority features and any teething problems (one of our clients had a staff member with 7 names! We needed to update our name matching algorithm to deal with that edge case). Because it's a system that relies on real-world data, it can only be tested with real-world people (no test data, unfortunately). We've built a large database of real accreditations for automated testing, but there's always new things we find through the beta.
Last week we announced (
https://medium.com/@dutyof.care/queensland-tasmania-and-national-health-practitioners-join-the-dutyof-care-platform-c6e48a81d869) that we've released automated capabilities to cover hundreds of thousands more people and accreditations. That includes all Doctors, Nurses, Physiotherapists, etc across Australia, as well as some region specific ones. We're on track to have automated everything we can in the next few months, in Australia, and we'll then start the global capability rollout.
We're aiming to launch the public beta in the next 1-2 months, and enable 'billing' (revenue) not long after. Our product positioning is anchored around two themes - "Proactive Prevention" and "Permanent Proof". Essentially, Automation + Blockchain, to cut costs and dramatically improve compliance and safety.
Watch this space regarding some pretty exciting announcements - we're in negotiations with a group of early-adopter 'anchor tenants', across some very large sporting organisations, humanitarian groups, schools and universities. Because those are all in commercial negotiations, we can't reveal the details just yet, but they are household names.
Lastly, our go-to-market strategy includes making dutyof.care available in 'headless' mode ("API Only"), basically for organisations to use it, embedded into their existing enterprise systems (CRMs, HR tools, etc). We don't want to force our clients to 'use a new tool' if we can integrate seamlessly into their existing systems. So, we're also in discussions with software vendors and solution integrators to 'plug in' dutyof.care into their platforms, all of which will lead to accelerating the take-up of the solution in the market.
Happy to answer any other questions that I can - AMA!
