The EMS Protocol App
Built for the Field

MedicDex turns your department's protocol PDF into a searchable, offline-capable web app on every crew member's phone — with a weight-based drug calculator, cardiac arrest manager, and clinical tools included. No app store. No IT department. Ready in under 24 hours.

Why EMS Agencies Need a Protocol App

Most EMS departments still rely on printed binders or static PDFs. When protocols get updated, there's no clean way to push changes to every crew member's phone. Medics are searching through hundreds of pages during critical calls instead of focusing on their patient.

A purpose-built EMS protocol app solves this. Your protocols become instantly searchable, always current, and accessible on any phone — even with no cell signal.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do crews need to download anything?

No. MedicDex is a progressive web app — crews open a link in any browser. No App Store, no Google Play, no installation. Works on iOS, Android, and desktop equally well.

What if there's no cell signal on scene?

MedicDex caches the entire protocol book locally after the first load. It works 100% offline — protocols, drug calculator, clinical tools, and the arrest manager all function without internet.

How accurate is the AI parsing?

Very accurate for digitally-generated PDFs. Claude AI reads every page and extracts sections, drugs, doses, routes, and contraindications. The admin panel shows you everything before publishing, and a built-in Drug Editor lets you fix anything the parser missed.

Is my department's protocol data secure?

Yes. Data is stored with encryption at rest and in transit. Each department's data is isolated with row-level security — no cross-department data access. Your protocol data is never used to train AI models. See our Privacy Policy for details.

Can we use our own branding?

Yes. Department name and brand color appear throughout the crew app. Enterprise plans include full white-label options.
