Hey @joshpadnick, great question - It's both!

On one hand, Akido is a technology + service that offloads the entire integration process for application vendors (analytics, patient engagement, scheduling, etc!), lab/diagnostics vendors, and connected hardware vendors.

On the other hand, hospitals have a solution for integration that provides more granular control over their data, and a far smoother integration process.

I'd also like to add that it's a free platform for health systems :).

To clarify a bit, a hospital or clinic wouldn't really "hire" us -- Akido is software that's implemented on-site or in the cloud, and is supported remotely.
