What we build, and what we are not
Said early, because it shortens every conversation.
The layer above what exists
Access, care, payment, follow-up and the pathway between visits, running as one flow above the record, connected through FHIR R4.
Not your EHR
The clinical record stays where it is, under the law that governs it. What we hold is the patient's own record.
Not a booking site
Booking is one step of the journey we run. It is named after the journey, never before it.
Not a point AI tool
IQ runs across the whole pathway, on the infrastructure that already carries it. We publish a clinical standard and ship every month.

How we got here
From a validation round with doctors to a platform running in two regions.
- 2019
- A ten-person team is assembled to build the Hilbi prototype, after six months of validation with doctors, patients and providers. The first release targets the Slovak market.
- 2020 to 2023
- Four years of development inside the Central and Eastern European ecosystem. The prototype is tested across healthcare facilities and the first version enters clinical practice.
- 2024
- Optimisation in real conditions. The platform is tuned on live pathways rather than in a demo environment, and the provider network in Slovakia and Czechia grows.
- April 2025
- Ishtar Advisory Limited commits a strategic investment of €8 million, with a first tranche of €1.5 million deployed. The Indian company is established and DPU Super Speciality Hospital in Pune becomes the first large adopter.
- 2026
- Hilbi operates across the European Union and India, with pilots in the United States and the United Arab Emirates, and publishes the Care Plans Standard.
