CodeTheCure AI
Hi. What would you like to understand?
Topics
How your messages are processed
Chat is for education only, not diagnosis or treatment. This service is not HIPAA-compliant, do not send clinical records you need protected. Your text may be processed by our CodeTheCure AI backend and third-party model providers (Groq, Google Gemini, OpenAI) under their terms. We apply automated redaction before external calls when available, but it is not perfect.
Made for the weeks after a diagnosis
Search online after a diagnosis and you get personal stories, unverified claims, and research all mixed together. CodeTheCure answers from medical sources like PubMed and the National Cancer Institute, fits the answer to your cancer type and stage, and shows where each part came from.
It's for patients, and for the family and friends helping them. You can ask the same question twice, ask for it in simpler words, or come back to it whenever you need to.
The first appointments come fast, with a lot of new words.
- What does stage IIA mean for my treatment?
- What's the difference between my biopsy and my pathology report?
- What should I ask at my first oncology visit?
- Do I need a second opinion, and how do I ask for one?
What it does
It all happens in one conversation: the same place you ask questions is where you upload a report, plan your week, or take a minute to breathe.

Watch it look things up as it works, then read the sources behind every answer.
