How It Works – Step by Step
You Ask: Submit your clinical question in natural language - just as you'd ask a colleague.
AI Processes Your Question: The AI system interprets the query, identifies key clinical components, and searches Trip's curated, high-quality evidence database.
Evidence Is Retrieved and Synthesised: The system prioritises trusted sources such as guidelines and systematic reviews. It then synthesises the findings into a clear, concise answer tailored to your query.
You Get a Clear, Referenced Answer: Within seconds, you receive a structured response - with citations - designed to support confident, evidence-based clinical decision-making.
