Overview

UpSite Clinical develops TrialPro™, an AI-powered clinical trial budgeting and coverage analysis platform designed to reduce study startup time and budget misalignment between clinical research sites, sponsors, and contract research organizations (CROs). The platform provides shared workflows that allow all parties in a clinical trial negotiation to align on assumptions earlier, reducing the back-and-forth that typically delays study activation.

UpSite Clinical states that protocol and pricing information entered into TrialPro is not sent to any public AI models, positioning data privacy as a foundational aspect of the platform's design.

Core Platform: TrialPro™

  • A shared budgeting and Medicare coverage analysis platform used across the clinical trial ecosystem
  • Automates clinical trial budgeting, fair market value benchmarking, and Medicare coverage analysis
  • Designed to reduce the time from protocol receipt to study activation
  • Applies AI to accelerate Medicare coverage analysis, which is described as a traditionally time-consuming bottleneck in study startup
  • Provides defensible, explainable budgets where each line item is backed by clear rationale and methodology
  • Uses fair market value benchmarks built on data that both sites and sponsors can reference during negotiations

Users Served

  • Clinical research sites: Tools to build complete budgets more quickly, identify missed or unaccounted work early, and access benchmarks relevant to their specific site context
  • Sponsors and CROs: Capabilities to design consistent budgets with precise benchmarks, improve total study cost estimates, and align with sites earlier in the startup process
  • Tailored workflows are provided for each side of the budget negotiation

Key Capabilities and Platform Principles

  • AI-powered automation reduces manual effort associated with coverage analysis and budget construction
  • Shared assumptions across negotiating parties are intended to minimize surprises and reduce rework
  • Benchmarks are described as defensible and based on data both parties can trust
  • The platform aims to cut study startup time in half compared to traditional manual processes
  • UpSite Clinical maintains strategic relationships with leading clinical research organizations

UpSite Clinical serves the full clinical trial ecosystem — research sites, sponsors, and CROs — with a focus on reducing the friction and time lost to budget misalignment during study startup.
