The proof you already assemble by hand, built in as the work happens. Coordination and governance for the bank, agency and locum cover you rely on now.
Not a staffing agency. Not a marketplace. We don't place or employ radiographers.
When a gap opens, someone rings round and texts a list. The department carries a flexible bench — bank, agency, locum — but no shared view of who's free, where, with what current skills. 76% of departments employ agency staff.
The work gets done. But the proof that each radiographer was suitable for that shift lives in inboxes, PDFs and someone's memory — until an inspector, or an incident review, asks for it cold.
UK trusts already spend £325M a year on temporary radiology cover. The governance burden rides on top of every pound of it.

Picture where imaging is heading — still early, but the direction is clear. A patient doesn't attend. Instead of two idle hours, that freed radiographer supports a short-staffed site across the network — work that's physically impossible today.
That's the future Remote-I is built for. The governing layer has to be there before the shift arrives — not bolted on after.
Remote, multi-site operation is still emerging. But when it scales, a redirect across sites is only safe if suitability is verified before the moment passes. Build the governing layer ahead of the wave and the shift arrives governed. Wait, and it arrives with none.
That's the future's safety problem — but a version of it is already your problem now. Today, when you bring in flexible cover, the checks happen — but they live in separate systems, done at different times, by different people, and nothing ties them to the radiographer you actually put on the session.
Remote-I holds them together. Registration and credential documents are recorded against the radiographer — held with expiry dates and surfaced to the hospital, whose HR Manager or Lead Radiographer verifies them; the platform holds the record, the hospital owns the check. Modality competency is verified against a skill matrix and enforced at the point of matching. References are captured and confirmed, a minimum of two for external cover. CPD is recorded as the radiographer works. And every allocation is timestamped and audited — who was assigned, when, by whom.
So the record is built as the work happens, not reconstructed afterwards. That's the gap Remote-I closes today — and the same governing layer is ready for the shift that's coming.
Remote-I lets imaging departments see their flexible workforce, deploy it, and keep a record that proves every radiographer was suitable, eligible and accountable for the shift they worked. It earns its place on the bank-and-agency reality you run now.
And it's the same governing layer the move to remote, multi-site operation will need.

Every market Remote-I operates in faces the same bottleneck: more scanners than operators, and no fast fix on the horizon. The numbers come from the regulators and professional bodies of each jurisdiction — they agree more than they disagree.

Every other option asks the hospital to fill the gap first, then assemble the paper trail afterwards. Remote-I treats the two as the same problem: the record is built as the shift is staffed, not generated later. The audit trail is a byproduct of how the match was made, not a report you produce before an inspection.
Modality-aligned radiographers matched to your service scope. MRI for MRI sessions. CT for CT sessions. No generalists, no mismatches, no agency dependency.
Secure remote operating environment layered onto existing hospital infrastructure — under active development with manufacturer and integration partners. Pilots today operate within the hospital's own remote access pathway; cockpit licensing forms part of the post-pilot scope.
SOP gating, audit trails, and clinical accountability built into every session. Whether your inspector is CQC, DNV, or Joint Commission — every timestamp renders in your hospital's local timezone, automatically. CQC-ready evidence outputs included as standard from day one.
Each pillar reflects a different question imaging managers have to answer — and a different stakeholder who asks for the evidence.
Severity-scored live workflow. Ten clinical and operational factors recalculated every five minutes, ranking every gap by real urgency. Saved sites, job templates, forward scheduling, three-phase notification escalation, and radiographer handover.
Pool eligibility gated by skill matrix and two-reference verification. Compliance state recorded at session acceptance. Distinct hospital roles plus a platform Owner, with MFA. Timestamped, attributable, append-only audit trail with an IP fingerprint — rendered in each hospital's local timezone.
Regulator-ready evidence pack (CQC Well-Led, DNV, Joint Commission) generated on demand from live session data. Operational report covering fill rate, mean time to fill, agency-vs-platform cost comparison. Three governance add-ons available in production.

The same setup is what extends to cross-site, remote-supported coverage as that model matures.
Competency is jurisdictional. Each radiographer is verified against the registration that applies where the shift takes place — confirmed by the hospital's own HR Manager or Lead Radiographer, not a generic "international" badge. Remote-I does not transfer credentials across borders.
Supported — same verification and governance pathway; only the modality-specific competencies differ. For MRI: field-strength experience (1.5T, 3T) and sequence familiarity, with MRI safety sign-off. Verified against the local register that applies where the shift takes place: HCPC (UK), the applicable national register (per EU member state), ARRT (US), MRPBA/MRTB (AU·NZ).
Supported — same verification and governance pathway; only the modality-specific competencies differ. For CT: dose-optimisation familiarity per protocol and contrast-administration competency where applicable.

We're selecting a small number of NHS trusts, EU hospital sites and equivalent partners to shape the coordination-and-governance layer with us — proving it against the flexible workforce they run today, and helping define how it extends as remote, multi-site operation matures. Design partners shape the platform, inform the governance model, and lock in preferential pricing.
