14.4.2020 15:02:11 CEST | Business Wire | Press release
Antidote Technologies, a digital patient engagement company with strategic partnerships across the clinical development ecosystem, today announced the addition of COVID-19 trials to its signature state-of-the-art clinical trial search platform, Antidote Match™. For the first time, people can use Antidote’s search to be quickly matched to clinical trials for compounds aimed at COVID-19 treatment and prevention.
Antidote Match is the first trial matching engine that uses structured eligibility criteria (using industry standard and custom-designed ontologies) and proprietary algorithms to explore a patient’s eligibility for every trial. When searching COVID-19 trials, patients answer a handful of questions about their health, and the Antidote Match engine traverses all COVID-19 trials in ClinicalTrials.gov, regardless of location, to connect them with the right studies.
Antidote’s search is available on the Antidote website and on the websites of 250+ patient advocacy groups, where Antidote powers clinical trial search. “Antidote is a tremendous resource for families looking for clear, reliable information on clinical trials, as well as scientists hoping to accelerate the path to new and more effective treatments,” said Michael Buckley, Vice President of Public Affairs at BrightFocus Foundation.
Traditionally, medical research has been a slow process — it takes an average of ten years for a drug to go from initial discovery to pharmacy shelves.1 “Right now, the world doesn’t have ten years,” said Laurent Schockmel, CEO of Antidote. “COVID-19 research is urgent, and all avenues that speed up research should be explored. That’s why Antidote is providing this free search tool to all. It’s simple: the more patients search and enroll, the faster medical research can lead to breakthroughs to treat and prevent COVID-19.”
Clinical trials for COVID-19 cannot move forward without volunteers — both those who are sick and those who are healthy. To be part of finding a solution to COVID-19, please visit http://www.antidote.me/covid-19 .

Archer® Proves Purpose-Built AI Beats General-Purpose LLMs on Regulatory Change Management: 95% Verified Accuracy, 80x Faster, 92% Lower Cost30.6.2026 16:13:00 CEST | Press release
In a head-to-head benchmark, a leading general-purpose LLM was confidently wrong 35% of the time on regulatory dates. Archer Evolv™ shipped zero errors. For enterprises deploying AI in compliance, a wrong date is a missed deadline. The more dangerous failure is a wrong answer the model returns with high confidence, one that flows silently into a compliance calendar and is only discovered after the window has passed. Archer® today released results showing purpose-built AI beats a general-purpose large language model (LLM) on regulatory work, and it’s not close. This head-to-head test compared Archer’s purpose-built, vertical-specific AI and proprietary data sets against a leading general-purpose LLM, on a core compliance task: determining the publication, effective and comment-close dates of regulatory documents across six jurisdictions. General-purpose models are a genuine breakthrough, and this is no referendum on their quality. The question Archer set out to answer is narrower and mo
