Aetion Discover

Aetion® Discover is a visual-first analytics application designed to help life sciences teams rapidly extract actionable insights from real-world data. Built for exploratory analysis, it enables a structured approach to research questions spanning disease burden, unmet need, and real-world value — all without requiring programming expertise.

Discover is purpose-built for HEOR, commercial, RWE, and data provider teams who need to generate and validate hypotheses quickly. By enabling a two-way conversation between users and their data — in any format — Discover empowers teams to move from question to insight in minutes rather than days.

Who Aetion® Discover Is For

• HEOR and commercial teams: Generate value-focused hypotheses in minutes, not days, enabling faster decision-making across the organization.
• RWE teams: Run rapid analyses using shared definitions without the need to exchange code lists or algorithms between team members.
• Data providers: Demonstrate data value through visual insights and rapid responses to feasibility count requests.

Core Capabilities

• Dataset selection and assessment: Rapidly evaluate and select datasets suited to your analytics aim through hypothesis-driven analysis of complex data, with no programming knowledge required.
• Population definition and characterization: Define and describe populations of interest using scientifically validated analytics, pre-built measures, and predefined outcomes for reliable, publication-grade insights.
• Intuitive visualizations: Transform complex datasets into easily interpretable results through an interactive, visual-first interface with auto-generated visualizations tailored to each analysis.
• AI-powered hypothesis generation: Leverage AI-powered features to generate and refine hypotheses for further exploration directly within the platform.

Key Features

• Aetion Measure Library: Access 11,600+ pre-built definitions for diagnoses, procedures, and therapies, curated by Aetion scientists and aligned to publication-grade standards, eliminating ambiguity in measure selection.
• Smart Subgroups: Use advanced clustering algorithms to identify distinct patient subgroups based on diagnoses, procedures, or therapies, enhancing the depth and precision of research.
• Smart Risk Profiling: Identify the top risk factors driving healthcare resource utilization (HCRU) and costs, and instantly explore risk-based subgroups for deeper analytical insights.
• Visual-first interface: Benefit from auto-generated, interactive visualizations that make complex real-world data immediately interpretable for all users regardless of technical background.

Aetion® Discover is part of the broader Aetion software suite, which also includes Activate, Substantiate, and Generate, offering an integrated ecosystem for real-world evidence generation. The platform supports analytic flexibility through integration with the Aetion Measure Library and is backed by Aetion's scientific expertise in advancing critical healthcare decisions.
