[Quebec, September 10] — Akinox, a trusted partner to Canadian governments and healthcare organizations for more than a decade, is announcing a major expansion of its role in shaping the future of AI in healthcare and beyond. Building on its long history of delivering secure, interoperable platforms that power provincial health systems at scale, Akinox is embedding safe, accountable AI with model traceability into its products, platforms, and provincial solutions. These advancements ensure that AI is not only powerful, but also transparent and explainable. Akinox equips clinicians and governments with the confidence to deploy AI responsibly at scale, driving measurable improvements in care and system performance.
AI Tools Supporting Canadian Clinicians
From CarePath, an AI-powered clinical summary solution that reduces administrative burden for physicians, to provincial intake and prioritization tools that streamline access to services for millions of Canadians, Akinox is bringing proven, practical AI applications to the frontline of healthcare. These innovations include emerging AI voice and summary tools designed to give clinicians faster insights from patient data, enabling them to spend more time focused on care.
To support this next chapter, Akinox has established Jetty Solutions Inc. ("Jetty"), a dedicated subsidiary within the Akinox Solutions family. Jetty extends Akinox’s mission by focusing exclusively on AI accountability, safety, and model traceability. By bringing Jetty under the Akinox umbrella, the company is not only advancing the science of responsible AI but also making it directly available to its clients. Health systems, governments, and providers can now evaluate AI with confidence — knowing that every model is explainable, auditable, and aligned with the highest standards of trust and compliance.
Responsible AI for Healthcare in Canada
Jetty is co-led by Alex Dahl, CEO and Co-founder of Akinox, and Dr. Jon Lebensold, CEO and co-founder of Jetty, a recognized expert in AI model accountability. Together, they are building the frameworks that ensure Akinox’s AI solutions are not only effective but also safe, sustainable, and accountable. Dr. Lebensold is also the driving force behind the Symposium on Model Accountability, Sustainability and Healthcare (SMASH) — an interdisciplinary gathering focused on operationalizing AI safely and responsibly. SMASH will convene leaders from Mila, Meta, ML Commons, Google, CHAI, CIFAR, ULaval, HEC, Yale, Harvard, Stanford and more to tackle AI safety, data privacy, model interoperability, and accountability.
Through Jetty and SMASH, Akinox is ensuring that the technical, ethical, and regulatory frameworks of responsible AI don’t stay in theory — they are operationalized and embedded into provincial platforms, intake systems, and clinical tools already serving millions of patients today. Unlike companies that bolt on AI through acquisitions, Akinox is growing its ecosystem organically through Jetty and trusted partnerships, ensuring agility, alignment, and long-term trust.
Supporting Provincial Health Systems and Governments
Akinox’s technology already powers millions of patient experiences each year through provincial platforms and national-scale initiatives. By layering AI into this foundation, Akinox is uniquely positioned to help governments and health systems unlock efficiency, reduce clinician burden, and advance the quintuple aim of healthcare: better outcomes, improved patient and provider experience, reduced costs, and greater equity.
“AI is not a buzzword in healthcare, it’s a responsibility. At Akinox, we are embedding safe, accountable AI with model traceability into the very core of provincial systems to ensure it delivers real impact for clinicians and patients. Through Jetty, a key part of the Akinox family, and through global collaborations such as SMASH, we are advancing the frameworks that make AI transparent, explainable, and trustworthy. Our goal is simple: give governments and providers the confidence to adopt AI responsibly and at scale.”
