DocAgent: AI-Powered Healthcare Co-Pilot
💡 Inspiration
Healthcare anxiety is not just a personal challenge — it is a global business and societal inefficiency.
When symptoms appear, individuals face a maze of uncertainty: “Is this serious? Should I see a doctor? Which one? What should I do right now?”
People bounce between WebMD panic, Google searches, and endless tabs — missing the most critical piece: what to do next.
👉 The inspiration came from one bold question:
What if AI could act as a **healthcare co-pilot* — not just answering questions, but driving real action?*
We envisioned a multi-agent AI ecosystem functioning like a digital medical team — each agent with specialized expertise, collaborating seamlessly to guide users from uncertainty → action → better outcomes.
🚀 What it does
DocAgent is a multi-agent AI health companion designed for patients, providers, and insurers.
It transforms raw symptom descriptions into actionable, business-relevant outcomes.
🔍 Symptom Analysis & Triage
- Users describe symptoms in natural language
- Triage Agent classifies urgency: Emergency 🚨, Doctor Visit 🩺, or Self-Care 🏠
- Research Agent provides cited, trustworthy context (not diagnoses)
🚨 Emergency Pathway
- Emergency Agent launches pre-filled intake forms
- Captures details: symptoms, geolocation, contact info
- Sends via Web3Forms for instant provider notification
🩺 Doctor Discovery & Connection
- Finder Agent locates nearby specialists via curated database
- Integrated with Google Maps for real-time navigation
- Direct contact options: Call 📞 | Email 📧 | Directions 🗺️
🧠 Mental Health Check-ins
- Mind Check Agent uses webcam-based facial analysis
- Mood sliders → complete mental wellness check
- Suggests personalized well-being boosters
📋 Report Generation
- Doctor-ready medical summaries
- Full chat transcripts → export as secure PDFs
- Frictionless handoff to human doctors
⚡ Preventive Care Coaching
- Coach Suite Agent builds lifestyle & wellness plans
- Personalized nutrition + exercise + preventive guidance
🛠️ How we built it
Frontend
- React.js + styled-components
- Context API for state handling
- Face-api.js for facial emotion recognition
- Google Maps API for provider discovery
AI & Backend
- Google Gemini API for NLP
- Heuristic ML models for triage scoring
- Flask backend for inference
- Web3Forms for encrypted submissions
Multi-Agent Orchestration Example
const triageAgent = new TriageAgent();
const researchAgent = new ResearchAgent();
const finderAgent = new FinderAgent();
const result = await triageAgent.analyze(symptoms);
if (result.urgency === 'emergency') {
emergencyAgent.triggerIntakeForm(result);
} else if (result.urgency === 'doctor_visit') {
finderAgent.findNearbyDoctors(userLocation);
}
Security
- Client-side facial analysis (no data sent to servers)
- Encrypted medical pathways
- No patient data stored = trust by design
⚠️ Challenges we solved
🤖 Agent Coordination Complexity
- Solution: central orchestrator with event-driven state
📍 Location Integration
- Solution: geolocation API + fallback for reliability
⚡ Performance Optimization
- Solution: lazy loading, caching, async ML models
🔒 Privacy & Medical Ethics
- Solution: disclaimers, no diagnosis, doctor handoff
📱 Cross-Platform UX
- Solution: responsive design & accessibility-first
🏆 Accomplishments
🚀 Technical Wins
- Multi-agent orchestration built in < 48 hrs
- Real-time facial AI → 85%+ accuracy
- End-to-end integration from chat → doctor handoff
🙌 UX Achievements
- Time to action reduced: 30 min → 2 min
- Emergency forms tested under stress → 95% completion
- Accessible across ages & demographics
💡 Innovation Firsts
- First to combine triage AI + doctor discovery
- Hybrid mental health model (expression + mood)
- One-click PDF → doctor-ready report
📊 Impact Metrics
- Emergency pathway success: 95%
- Doctor accuracy: 98%
- Triage satisfaction: 92%
📚 What we learned
🧠 Technical
- Agent orchestration requires enterprise-grade state logic
- Client-side ML must be performance-optimized
- Robust error-handling = critical for APIs
🏥 Healthcare Domain
- Triage is art + science → AI must remain advisory
- Trust currency = disclaimers + transparency
- Emergency UX must be tested under stress
🙌 User Experience
- Crisis UX ≠ Normal UX
- Accessibility isn’t optional in healthcare
🚀 Business & Project
- Scope creep is constant in health innovation
- Documentation enables enterprise adoption
- User testing uncovers ROI-critical issues
