Listening to clinicians. Advancing safe, practical AI. 

The best care—and the best ideas—start by listening. The Tom Contributors program unites clinicians with developers and operators to ensure that Tom has the powerful capabilities to operate as an agentic AI primary care team member and the right guardrails to adhere to pre-set clinical and safety boundaries. The program informs clear standards for safety, oversight, and measurable outcomes.

Built with clinicians, for clinicians. 

Transformation takes more than ambition. It takes wisdom from exam rooms, clinics, and care transitions—where decisions carry weight. Founded by physicians, Lumeris built Tom to work with clinicians, not around them. Tom Contributors keep us true to that physician-first foundation.

As a Tom Contributor, you’ll have a voice in how AI is deployed in real-world care.

Inform how we measure what matters for patients, clinicians, and health systems, to define real metrics for success or all stakeholders.
