AskSheldon for Clinicians
AskSheldon provides clinicians with evidence-gathering and screening support for autism and ADHD assessment, including Agentic MDT evidence scaffolding, multi-informant data collection, and structured reports aligned with DSM-5 criteria and NICE guidelines — all reviewed under your clinical judgement.
What does the clinician portal include?
Agentic MDT Evidence Scaffolding
Five independent AI agents apply different clinical frameworks — psychiatry, clinical psychology, speech and language, occupational therapy, and educational psychology — then cross-review one another before producing a structured summary for your clinical review.
Multi-Informant Evidence Collection
Gather corroborating evidence from parents, partners, teachers, and siblings. Each informant completes a tailored assessment, and responses are triangulated against the self-report to strengthen clinical confidence.
Real-Time Pipeline Tracking
Monitor each screening as it moves through evidence extraction, Agentic MDT scaffolding rounds, clarification collection, and report generation. Every stage is logged for full audit transparency.
Clinical Dashboard
View patient referrals, screening progress, generated reports, and Agentic MDT structured summaries from a single interface designed for clinical workflows — all reviewed under your clinical judgement.
Clinical-Grade Reports
Generated reports include structured evidence mapping to DSM-5 criteria, differential considerations, support recommendations, and clear confidence ratings — ready to inform your clinical judgement.
Data Security & Compliance
Assessment data is stored on Google Cloud infrastructure (SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certified). Role-based access ensures clinicians see only their own patients. No data is sold or shared with third parties. GDPR and HIPAA compliance is pending — see our privacy policy for current status.

How does the Agentic MDT evidence scaffolding work?
When a patient completes an assessment, AskSheldon runs a five-stage clinical pipeline. First, structured evidence is extracted from free-text responses and mapped to DSM-5 criteria. Five AI agents then independently scaffold the evidence using distinct clinical frameworks before cross-checking one another's work — producing a structured summary for your review.
If the team identifies gaps, clarification questions are generated and sent to the patient. A second Agentic MDT round integrates the new evidence and produces a final structured summary with confidence ratings, differential considerations, and support recommendations — all reviewed and decided by you, the clinician.
The entire pipeline is logged and auditable. Every piece of evidence is traceable back to the original response, and every agent's reasoning is recorded so you can see exactly how conclusions were reached.
Pipeline Stages
- Evidence extraction and DSM-5 mapping
- Agentic MDT Round 1 — independent evidence scaffolding and cross-check
- Clarification collection from patient
- Agentic MDT Round 2 — final structured summary with new evidence
- Quality review and report generation
For NHS and private providers
AskSheldon is designed for both NHS and private diagnostic services. The platform reduces pre-assessment administrative burden by gathering structured patient information and informant evidence before the clinical appointment, giving you richer data to work with from the start.
For NHS trusts managing long assessment waiting lists, AskSheldon can serve as a pre-assessment triage tool — helping identify patients who may benefit from prioritised assessment and ensuring that clinical time is spent where it matters most.
Private clinicians can use the platform to streamline their assessment workflow, reduce report-writing time, and provide patients with a structured, transparent assessment experience.

Is the AskSheldon clinician portal free to use?
The clinician portal is currently available at no cost during our early-access period. We are working with NHS trusts and private providers to establish a sustainable pricing model. Clinicians can register and begin using the platform immediately.
How does AskSheldon integrate with existing clinical workflows?
AskSheldon is designed to complement, not replace, your existing assessment process. You can invite patients via email or referral link, and they complete structured screenings in their own time. The resulting Agentic MDT evidence scaffolding and structured summaries are available in your dashboard and can be exported as PDFs to include in existing clinical records.
Is AskSheldon aligned with NICE guidelines?
Yes. The assessment framework is built around NICE CG128 (autism in children and young people), NICE CG142 (autism in adults), and NICE NG87 (ADHD). Evidence is mapped to DSM-5 diagnostic criteria, and the multi-informant approach reflects NICE recommendations for gathering developmental history from multiple sources.
How is patient data kept secure?
Data is stored on Google Cloud infrastructure (SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certified at the platform level). Clinician accounts use role-based access control, ensuring you only see data for patients referred to your practice. We do not sell or share patient data. GDPR and HIPAA compliance is pending — see our privacy policy for current status.
How do I refer a patient to AskSheldon?
From your clinician dashboard, generate a referral link or send an email invitation directly to your patient. They will be guided through account creation, the relevant screening, and optional informant invitations. Once the Agentic MDT evidence scaffolding completes, the structured summary appears in your dashboard for your review.
What Clinicians Are Saying
We are currently onboarding our first clinical partners. This section will feature their experiences once available.
AskSheldon provides screening and evidence-scaffolding support — not formal diagnoses. All clinical judgement remains with the assessing clinician at all times. AI-generated content is a scaffold for your judgement; you retain full clinical responsibility.
