One line each. Open a row for detail.

What it really isHeartFlow — AI-powered cardiac FFR-CT analysis platform for non-invasive coronary artery disease diagnosis.
Our takeHeartFlow is a clinical-grade medical AI platform used by 1,800+ hospitals and health systems.
HeartFlow uses enterprise per-case pricing (~$1,000/case, Medicare- and commercially-reimbursed) with no public free trial. Its HeartFlow ONE platform combines Roadmap Analysis, FFRCT Analysis, and Plaque Analysis to deliver a complete non-invasive CAD diagnostic workflow from a single CT scan.
Why we rate itHeartFlow is FDA-cleared, ACC/AHA Chest Pain Guideline-endorsed, and backed by large multi-center trial data showing 69% reduction in unnecessary invasive coronary angiographies.
The platform is operationally proven at 1,800+ institutions globally, with a $176M revenue run-rate in 2025.
The catchEnterprise-only procurement — no self-serve onboarding, no public pricing, and meaningful institutional setup overhead.
Limited to markets with CCTA infrastructure and insurer reimbursement pathways (primarily US, EU, UK, Japan, Canada).

Best / not good for

Best for
  • Hospitals and health systems running high-volume CCTA programs
  • Interventional cardiologists needing non-invasive lesion-specific physiology before revascularization decisions
  • Cardiac imaging centers seeking ACC/AHA guideline-aligned workflows
Not good for
  • Small or independent cardiology practices without CT infrastructure
  • Markets lacking established CCTA reimbursement pathways
  • Use cases outside coronary artery disease (no general radiology or non-cardiac AI)
Trade-offs

Friction report

Trade-offs to know before signing up.

  1. Time to value
    Slow: institutional procurement, credentialing, and CCTA workflow integration required before first case analysis. Once live, per-case turnaround is ~90 minutes.
  2. Scale breakpoint
    Per-case billing scales linearly; high-volume programs benefit from enterprise contract negotiation but costs grow directly with caseload.
  3. Walled garden
    High: analyses are performed on HeartFlow's proprietary cloud infrastructure using CT scan uploads; results are delivered back to the institution but the computational engine is fully opaque and vendor-locked.

Alternatives

  • Step up

    Invasive FFR catheterization (Philips Volcano or Abbott pressure-wire systems) for highest-acuity cases requiring definitive physiologic measurement.

  • Lighter alternative

    Cleerly CCTA plaque analysis for institutions needing AI-assisted reading without full FFRCT workflow.
