In a major leap toward inclusive and intelligent healthcare, a Pakistani doctor is leading the charge with the launch of Hami, the world’s first AI-powered physician assistant designed to work side-by-side with doctors while keeping patient care at the center. Developed by Boston Health AI, the cutting-edge platform is now live in hospitals across Pakistan and poised for international rollout.

At a time when global health systems are grappling with overburdened staff, rural disparities, and long patient queues, Hami offers a powerful solution that blends speed with empathy. The AI assistant is not just a backend tool, it’s built to be a clinical partner, one that supports every stage of the patient journey, from initial consultation to follow-up care.

What sets Hami apart is its ability to listen and learn in real time. Using natural language processing and multimodal diagnostics, the system transcribes live doctor-patient conversations into structured notes, provides clinical recommendations, and even integrates with lab systems. For doctors, that means fewer hours buried in paperwork. For patients, it translates into more focused, informed, and human interactions.

Behind this innovation is Dr. Adil Haider (an award-winning trauma surgeon and former Dean of Aga Khan University Medical College) who has also held academic positions at Harvard and Johns Hopkins. His vision is clear: “Healthcare shouldn’t be dictated by borders or bank accounts. Hami is designed to level the playing field and bring expert care to anyone, anywhere.”

The platform, which complies with HIPAA and GDPR standards, is multilingual and scalable, making it ideal for both urban hospitals and rural clinics. Whether you’re in Karachi or a remote village in Sindh, Hami enables better consultations, reduced wait times, and enhanced follow-through.

With support from Systems Limited and U.S.-based C10 Labs, Hami is the first step in a larger mission: to reach one billion patients worldwide. According to World Health Organization estimates, the world faces a shortage of over 11 million healthcare professionals by 2030. Hami isn’t a replacement, it’s a much-needed reinforcement for an exhausted system.

By transforming how care is delivered (without compromising empathy) Hami is helping redefine what 21st-century healthcare should look like.
