About the Partnership
2024 - Present
As a subsidiary of Kaplan Inc., i-Human Patients is a trusted platform that delivers case-based diagnostic simulations for medical education. With the industry rapidly evolving, they sought to modernize both their product experience and its underlying system.
The first and most major updates were made to their backend. We implemented automations, scalable workflows, and flexible deployment strategies to minimize the risks of their highly manual process, improving i-Human Patients’ capacity for new feature rollouts and platform updates.
Next, we turned to their case creation interface, the Authoring Worksheet. Our design and development team collaborated closely with i-Human Patients stakeholders to redesign its UI, reducing friction for content authors and significantly increasing case output.
Overall, i‑Human Patients is now supported by a more efficient codebase. Their accelerated processes allows them to connect educators with students more effectively and at scale.
Infrastructure Upgrade
As i-Human Patients’ user base and platform demands grew, their existing infrastructure struggled to keep pace. Manual setup and processes increased operational overheads and created risks of service disruptions during deployments.
To address this pain point, we automated infrastructure management, implemented containerized environments, and introduced resilient deployment processes—including instant rollback capabilities and a multi-region disaster recovery plan.
These changes enhanced system reliability and continue to support i-Human Patients’ ability to deliver new features while maintaining a seamless user experience at scale.
