Preparing for a doctor visit with aligned photos and a 24-hour encrypted one-page brief
A visit-prep app that tracks a spot with aligned photos and makes a one-page brief for your clinician. It does not diagnose.
Visit readyseen.comYou noticed a spot on your skin two weeks ago. By the time you get the appointment, you cannot remember when it started, what changed, or what you tried. You have a photo from day one taken under different light, from a different distance. The clinician has fifteen minutes. The visit goes to reconstructing a story that you could have written down.
ReadySeen is built for that gap. It prepares you for a visit. It does not tell you what you have.
What is ReadySeen?
ReadySeen's tagline is "Show up ready to be seen." It is a web app you can install on your phone, with a free account, that does three jobs: track a spot with photos that line up day after day, run a short guided interview, and produce a one-page brief a clinician can read in thirty seconds. There is also a side for clinics. It is a LIKE A KING INC. company, based in New York.
The site is clear on scope: "Visit prep, not diagnosis." It "does not diagnose, treat or give medical advice, and does not replace a clinician." Every page carries the line "Emergency? Call 911 now." ReadySeen is not for emergencies.
What problem does it solve?
Clinicians read stories and compare changes. Patients forget details, and photos taken inconsistently are hard to compare. ReadySeen makes the photos comparable and the story short.
How does it work?
Snap and track. A ghost of your last photo guides the next one, so you keep the same distance, light and angle. Change over days shows as a clean time-lapse. Photos stay on your phone unless you share a brief or ask the optional photo check to describe them.
Tell your story. A short guided interview asks when it started, what changed, what you feel and what you have tried. It keeps medicines and questions on one page.
Warning signs first. The first question checks for warning signs. The rules are not guessed by an AI. The site says they are written from public health guidance, each shows its source (for example, rule RF-010 cites the CDC's page on cellulitis), and a licensed clinician must sign them off before launch.
Share once. Show a QR code at the front desk or send a view-only link. The brief is end-to-end encrypted, the link closes after 24 hours (extendable on Plus), it can be turned off anytime, and it shows you every time it was opened. The site says the link's key never reaches our servers, so we cannot read your brief.
For clinics. Clinics register and are verified in about a day. Features listed include an encrypted brief inbox, an intake link with a printable QR poster, online booking with reminders, team logins with roles and two-factor sign-in, an activity log, a business associate agreement, and on the Practice plan a clinic API with FHIR R4 export and an MCP connector for AI assistants.
Who is it for?
People preparing for a visit, and clinics that want patients to arrive with the story already told. Photos on the site are AI-generated illustrations and app screens show demonstration data. They do not show real patients or clinicians.
How much does it cost?
In USD, as stated on the pricing page:
- Free: $0, no card. Track up to 2 spots, the guided interview and Visit Brief, the warning-sign check (always free), share links of 1 to 72 hours and QR codes, and sending briefs to verified clinics.
- Plus: $4.99 a month or $39 a year. Unlimited spots and photos, share links up to 7 days.
- Clinics: flat monthly fee per location, with a 60-day free pilot. Starter $99 a month. Practice $149 a month per location (founding price locked for 12 months, $199 from January 1, 2027). Group $169 a month per location ($149 at the founding price). Enterprise is quoted.
Clinics never charge patients per brief, and ReadySeen never charges per patient, brief, referral or booking.
How is it different from the obvious alternatives?
Notes apps and your photo gallery are free and flexible, but nothing aligns your photos or structures the story. Patient portals are tied to one provider. ReadySeen is not an EHR and is not tied to a health system. Telehealth and symptom checkers aim to diagnose or triage. ReadySeen explicitly does not. It prepares information and gets it to the person who can interpret it.
What it can't do yet
- It does not diagnose, treat or advise. It will never tell you what you have.
- It is not for emergencies.
- The warning-sign rules are described as needing clinician sign-off before launch. Treat that as a gate that is not yet confirmed on the site.
- Photos stay on your device. If you lose the device and have not shared a brief, they are gone. Deleting your spots deletes them for good.
- The optional photo check sends the photo to be described, so use it knowingly.
- The practice-level features (API, FHIR export, MCP connector) are described on the pricing page. We have not published adoption figures.
What's next?
The pricing page notes the Practice founding price ends and moves to $199 from January 1, 2027. Documentation, a status page, a clinic verification guide and a clinic inbox guide are linked from the site.
The business behind it
Patients pay nothing to prepare. Clinics pay a flat monthly fee per location, with a 60-day pilot set up by our team, and a consumer Plus plan adds capacity. That structure is deliberate: because clinics do not pay per patient, brief or referral, ReadySeen has no incentive to steer anyone to a clinic. Distribution is two-sided: patients bring the brief to the front desk, and clinics get an intake QR and a verified listing. The privacy posture (never sold, no ad trackers, encrypted when shared, delete anytime) is the trust position we want to hold. We are not citing user or clinic counts or revenue, because we have no verified figures to quote.
FAQ
Does ReadySeen diagnose?
No. It does not diagnose, treat or give medical advice and does not replace a clinician.
Where do my photos live?
On your phone, unless you share a brief or run the optional photo check.
Who can read the shared brief?
Whoever opens the link or QR before it closes, and the key never reaches our servers. The link closes after 24 hours by default and shows each time it was opened.
Is the warning-sign check free?
Always. So is sending your brief to a clinic: the clinic pays, never you.
What do clinics pay?
From $99 a month per location, with a 60-day free pilot.
