Our Story

We're building the AI that finally makes CTCAE grading effortless. Accurate adverse event assessments in seconds, not hours.

Our Mission

Adverse event grading shouldn't take longer than the clinical judgment it requires. We built Burna AI to automate CTCAE v6.0 assessments with accuracy your team can trust, so coordinators can stop searching and start reviewing.

A single insight can change everything

Your team already knows how to grade adverse events. The problem is everything that comes before: digging through notes, cross-referencing labs, hunting for the right CTCAE criteria.

Burna AI handles the heavy lifting so your clinicians can focus on the decisions that actually require their expertise.

Our core values

Precision

CTCAE grading leaves no room for error. We build for the accuracy that clinical trials and patient safety demand.

Born from necessity and built for scale

Burna AI was born from watching oncology teams drown in manual CTCAE grading. We saw research coordinators spending hours per patient on work that should take minutes. We saw inconsistency across reviewers and audit trails scattered across spreadsheets and PDFs.

So we built the grading assistant oncology deserves.

The Minds Behind Burna AI

Behind Burna is a team that understands both the science and the grind: engineers who've built AI systems at scale, oncologists who've graded thousands of adverse events, and operators who know what it takes to ship compliant software in healthcare.

FAQ

Have more questions? Contact our support team with any questions you may have.

Is Burna AI HIPAA compliant?

Yes. Security and compliance are foundational, not afterthoughts. Burna AI is HIPAA compliant, SOC 2 certified, and built to meet 21 CFR Part 11 requirements. Patient data is encrypted at rest and in transit, with complete audit trails for every action.

How does it integrate with our EHR?

We connect through standard protocols like SMART on FHIR and HL7—the same standards your EHR already supports. Integration is read-only by default, meaning we pull the context we need without moving or duplicating sensitive data. Most teams are connected within days, not months.

How long does implementation take?

Most teams are up and running in under a week. There's no lengthy training or certification required. Your team can start seeing value on day one, with our support alongside you as you scale.

Does a human still review everything?

Always. Burna AI surfaces intelligence, evidence, and recommendations—but every decision stays with your clinical team. We call it human-in-the-loop by design. The AI handles the heavy lifting; you stay in control.

What clinical workflows does it support?

We're built specifically for oncology operations—the complex, high-stakes work that other tools weren't designed for. If you're curious whether your workflow fits, we'd love to show you. Book a demo and we'll walk through it together.
