CoLumbo Joins Harrison.ai Open Platform to Advance AI Innovation in Medical Imaging

Smart Soft Healthcare has joined forces with Harrison.ai through the new Harrison.ai Open Platform, marking an important step toward more open, transparent, and collaborative innovation in medical imaging AI. As a launch partner, Smart Soft Healthcare will make CoLumbo, its customizable AI solution for lumbar spine MRI analysis, available to healthcare organizations and radiologists through a unified, open AI ecosystem.

Boston and Sydney, November 5 – Smart Soft Healthcare, developer of CoLumbo, an AI-powered solution for lumbar spine MRI analysis, has announced its participation as a launch partner in the new Harrison.ai Open Platform. The platform is designed to enable direct collaboration between AI developers, healthcare organizations, and radiologists through a radically open architecture.

The Harrison.ai Open Platform represents a new approach to how healthcare organizations access, integrate, and deploy medical imaging AI solutions. By reducing traditional intermediary layers between healthcare providers and AI vendors, the platform enables healthcare groups to integrate once and gain access to multiple AI applications through transparent, vendor-neutral connectivity.

“Healthcare providers don’t want to choose between the freedom to access the AI algorithms they want and having a best-in-class AI infrastructure to experience those algorithms,” said Dr. Aengus Tran, CEO of Harrison.ai. “Having implemented comprehensive algorithms in clinical practices globally across vastly different technical environments, Harrison.ai has built a robust AI infrastructure and packaged it in an experience healthcare providers around the world already love. We are pleased to further develop this infrastructure into the Harrison.ai Open Platform.”

For Smart Soft Healthcare, participation in the platform creates a direct path for healthcare organizations and radiologists to access CoLumbo’s AI-powered lumbar spine MRI analysis within an established medical imaging AI infrastructure.

“As developers of highly specialized imaging-AI such as CoLumbo, we see that platforms supporting vendor leadership and transparent cooperation with clinicians create the right environment for sustainable innovation,” said Nedelcho Georgiev, CEO of Smart Soft Healthcare. “The Harrison.ai Open Platform breaks the layered distribution structure and enables direct, collaborative progress between innovators and clinicians.”

By fostering direct partnerships between AI developers and clinical users, the Harrison.ai Open Platform enables companies such as Smart Soft Healthcare to focus on advancing clinical performance, customization, workflow integration, and real-world outcomes.

The Harrison.ai Open Platform is now available with Harrison.ai’s native applications, with CoLumbo joining as one of seven leading AI partners expanding the platform’s offering in 2026.
