Hey, thanks for being here. We're Hatem and François — and if you've ever stayed up late drowning in PubMed tabs, Excel filters, and last-minute formatting before a deadline... Then yeah, this is for you.
We started with a simple, painful question that needed answering.
Let me be honest. We didn't start with some grand startup idea. We started with a simple, painful question:
Why is literature review still this exhausting?
Why are we wasting so many hours on something that should already be easier?
I'm Hatem — medical doctor, medical engineer, and clinical evaluation specialist. I've written more CERs and PMCFs than I can count. And every single time, the most frustrating part was the same: The literature review.
This is for the clinical and regulatory teams out there doing the hard work — The real work — that nobody sees.
The ones reading the articles, writing the justifications, formatting the PRISMA charts. The ones feeling like there's never enough time, never enough clarity, never enough help.
We see you. We hear you. We've been you.
Building tools that actually make your life easier.
We believe in making complex processes clear and simple.
Built from real feedback, real reviews, real people.
No unnecessary features, just what you need to work better.
Building the future of literature review, together.
Right now, it's still just the two of us building it. But the truth is: you're part of the team too. Every time someone sends us a message, asks a question, or shares a "hey this helped me so much" — we feel it.
This isn't a company. This is a collaboration.
Every conversation helps us understand your challenges better and shapes the future of SOTA Navigator.
Share ideas, ask questions, or just say hi. We read and respond to every message.
"Thanks for being part of this journey."
Thanks for caring about making medical devices safer.
Thanks for believing in better ways to work.
Thanks for helping us build something meaningful.
With respect and gratitude,
Hatem & François
