New platform to create AI agents available to all public healthcare professionals
More than 12,000 AI agents have been created using the platform since May.
A new AI platform named AgentSea, developed by national healthtech agency Synapxe, is now accessible to all public healthcare professionals in Singapore. Cardiologist Kenneth Chew, from the National Heart Centre Singapore's cardiology department, utilizes this AI tool to generate summarized patient notes, saving him approximately 20 minutes per consultation.
AgentSea enables users to create customized AI agents that can assist with tasks such as procurement reviews or report preparation, using natural language and minimal technical expertise. KK Women’s and Children’s Hospital employed AgentSea to automate daily rosters, cutting down data entry and transcription errors. Prime Minister Lawrence Wong has designated healthcare as one of Singapore’s four national AI missions.
Synapxe’s chief data officer, Andy Ta, emphasized that this innovation empowers healthcare professionals to save time on repetitive tasks, allowing them to focus more on patient care and collaboration. Since its launch, more than 12,000 AI agents have been created by healthcare professionals, with over 300 available for others to reuse and adapt.
Synapxe ensures data protection through strict security measures, rejecting sensitive information requests. The platform’s implementation is guided by Singapore’s updated Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare Guidelines, addressing safety, performance monitoring, and incident reporting.
