About MaxQ AI

MaxQ AI, formerly known as MedyMatch Technology, was a healthcare artificial intelligence company dedicated to enhancing clinical decision support for physicians, particularly in acute care settings. The company’s flagship offering was the Accipio platform, which leveraged deep learning and machine vision to analyze non-contrast head CT images. This technology was designed to identify and prioritize suspected acute intracranial hemorrhage (ICH), stroke, and traumatic brain injury, aiming to enable faster, more accurate diagnoses and improve patient triage and workflow efficiency. The Accipio suite included modules such as Accipio Ix for ICH identification and prioritization, Accipio Ax for image annotation, and Accipio Dxg for comprehensive ICH triage. MaxQ AI collaborated with major medical imaging original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and partners, including Philips, GE Healthcare, Fujifilm, and IBM Watson Health, to integrate and distribute its solutions into existing radiology networks and PACS systems.

However, as of early 2022, MaxQ AI ceased commercial operations related to its Accipio line of software and discontinued its involvement in image analysis-based AI applications. The company announced a strategic pivot towards developing non-image-based AI algorithms for enterprise solutions, moving beyond the radiology department. More recent information from April 2026 indicates that MaxQ AI is considered a “deadpooled company,” suggesting it is no longer actively operating in the healthcare AI space.

What Physicians Need to Know

Specialization
MaxQ AI specialized in AI-based medical image analysis, primarily focusing on the detection and triage of intracranial hemorrhage (ICH), stroke, and traumatic brain injury (TBI) from non-contrast head CT images. Their flagship product was the Accipio platform, which included Accipio Ix for identification and prioritization, and Accipio Ax for slice-level annotation of suspected ICH.
Key Differentiators
MaxQ AI's solutions were designed for rapid processing and high sensitivity in detecting acute ICH, enabling physicians to prioritize critical patients. The Accipio platform aimed to provide near real-time insights, significantly reducing the time needed for hemorrhage detection. Their software received FDA clearance and CE Mark certification, and some components even received FDA Breakthrough Device designation.
Technology Stack
The Accipio platform leveraged deep learning technologies, machine vision, and cognitive analytics to analyze billions of data points from medical images. It was powered by Intel AI technologies, including Intel Xeon and Intel Core CPUs, and Intel Movidius VPUs, optimized with the Intel Distribution of OpenVINOu2122 toolkit and Intel performance libraries.
Physician Value Proposition
For physicians, MaxQ AI's technology offered augmented intelligence, providing clinical decision support at the point of care. It aimed to empower caregivers with faster, more accurate, and confident diagnoses of brain bleeds, improving patient outcomes and potentially saving lives by reducing misdiagnosis and accelerating treatment decisions in time-sensitive acute care scenarios. The platform helped prioritize workflow and offered slice-level previews of ICH.
Physician Tip

MaxQ AI's Accipio platform was designed to seamlessly integrate into existing clinical workflows, providing rapid, AI-powered insights directly within CT and PACS systems. Physicians could benefit from automated identification and prioritization of suspected intracranial hemorrhages, allowing for quicker assessment and more informed decision-making in acute stroke and head trauma cases. The Accipio Ax's SliceMap feature, for instance, guided clinicians directly to relevant CT slices, streamlining image review. This 'augmented intelligence' approach aimed to enhance, not replace, the physician's expertise, leading to improved patient care and potentially reduced healthcare costs.

MaxQ AI had extensive partnerships with major medical imaging original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and Picture Archiving and Communication Systems (PACS) providers. Their Accipio platform was integrated with solutions from GE Healthcare (via Edison Open AI Orchestrator), Philips CT systems, Samsung NeuroLogica (for mobile stroke units), Fujifilm (Synapse PACS), Arterys Marketplace, TeraRecon's EnvoyAI Exchange, and Blackford Analysis platforms. This broad integration strategy aimed to ensure their AI solutions were readily accessible within diverse acute care environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

MaxQ AI's primary products were the Accipio ICH and Stroke Platform, which included Accipio Ix and Accipio Ax. These were AI-powered solutions designed to analyze non-contrast head CT images for the detection, prioritization, and annotation of intracranial hemorrhage (ICH), stroke, and traumatic brain injury (TBI).
MaxQ AI's Accipio Ix software received 510(k) clearance from the U.S. FDA and a CE Mark for commercial use in the European Union. Additionally, Accipio Dx was granted FDA Breakthrough Device designation, and Accipio Ax was also FDA-cleared and CE approved.
MaxQ AI established significant partnerships for the distribution and integration of its Accipio platform with leading healthcare technology companies. These included GE Healthcare, Philips Healthcare, Fujifilm Medical Systems USA, Samsung NeuroLogica, IBM Watson Health, Arterys, Nuance Communications, Blackford Analysis, and EnvoyAI (a TeraRecon subsidiary).
MaxQ AI is currently a 'deadpooled' company, meaning it has ceased commercial operations. In January 2022, the company discontinued its Accipio software line and stopped commercial activities, including laying off sales and marketing staff.
Following MaxQ AI's cessation of commercial operations, ongoing support for existing Accipio product users would typically fall to the original channel partners through whom the software was acquired. While MaxQ AI had stated its channel partners had what they needed to support their customer base at the time of its pivot, long-term updates or new feature development from MaxQ AI itself are no longer available due to its deadpooled status.
In January 2022, MaxQ AI pivoted away from developing image-based AI algorithms for medical devices, discontinuing its Accipio line. The company's stated new focus was on building non-image-based AI algorithms for broader enterprise solutions. This aimed to identify anomalies in vast medical data to improve clinical outcomes and care efficiencies beyond traditional radiology applications.
Specific pricing details for MaxQ AI's Accipio products were not publicly disclosed, as the software was primarily sold and integrated through a network of channel partners. Healthcare providers would have acquired these solutions as part of broader agreements with major medical imaging and IT vendors.
