Overview
MetaMedicsVR AI Platform is web-based AI patient simulation software for health sciences education. It runs in any browser on any device, with no VR headset required. Educators author clinical scenarios and students train with conversational AI patients, virtual patient cases and branching decision modules. Every interaction is recorded, transcribed and scored against educator-defined rubrics, supporting competency assessment and accreditation reporting.
Used today by universities, hospitals and nursing-assistant programs in Spain and the United States.

Software at a glance

• Product type: software, no physical device is supplied
• Delivery: web-based software (SaaS), runs in any modern browser on any device
• No hardware required: no headset, no mannequin, nothing to install
• Licensing: institutional licenses for universities, hospitals and organizations
• Data: the institution remains the data controller; GDPR (EU) and FERPA (US)
• Integration: grades sync with Moodle, Canvas and Google Classroom

Core modules

• Conversational Simulator: natural voice or text interaction with AI patients that present distinct personalities, emotional states and full clinical histories; unscripted conversation; sessions recorded and transcribed for review.
• Virtual Patient Simulator: complete clinical simulations where learners examine a patient, order and interpret diagnostic tests, and make treatment decisions with evolving consequences.
• Clinical Decision Cases: branching scenarios that train diagnostic reasoning, prioritization and decision-making under time pressure.
• Interactive & Gamified Content: clinical comics, mini-games and scenario-based modules for anatomy, pharmacology, pathophysiology and ethics.
• Content Authoring Tool: converts the educator's own slide decks, PDFs and recorded lectures into presentations, videos, podcasts, simulations and interactive modules.
• Evaluation & Analytics: automatic rubric scoring, full transcripts and session replays, individual and cohort dashboards, accreditation-ready reports.

Integration
Connects to institutional LMS platforms (Moodle, Canvas, Google Classroom and others) so grades and completion data sync automatically: no parallel gradebook.
Where it is used

• Health sciences faculties: clinical interview practice in Psychology, Speech Therapy, Nursing, Physiotherapy and Medicine, from undergraduate to doctoral level. UDIMA runs it with over 1,000 students across 25+ subjects, and Universidad de Cádiz with 60+ licenses across Nursing and Physiotherapy.
• Postgraduate expert programs on high-stakes conversations, such as suicide-risk assessment and communication with aggressive patients.
• Hospitals: crisis clinical-interview training for physicians, nurses and mental health staff, following each center's own protocols.
• Nursing-assistant (CNA) programs in the United States: patient communication practice in English with AI patients before state certification. South Central Service Cooperative, in Minnesota, runs it in its nursing-assistant program.

Common questions

• Is VR required? No: the core platform is web-based. VR is an optional add-on for immersive cases.
• Who creates scenarios? Educators, with the built-in authoring tool; a pre-built content library accelerates deployment.
• How is evaluation handled? Educators define competencies and weightings; automated scoring applies the rubric and instructors can review or override results.
• How is student data handled? The institution remains the data controller and MetaMedicsVR acts as data processor. GDPR (EU) and FERPA (US).

Languages: platform available in English and Spanish; AI patient conversations can be configured in other languages per case.
