Activ Surgical

Activ Surgical is a Boston, Massachusetts digital surgery company building intraoperative surgical intelligence for the operating room. Its flagship product, the ActivSight Intelligent Light imaging module, attaches to existing laparoscopic and robotic surgical systems and renders augmented-reality overlays on a standard monitor, letting surgeons see physiology the naked eye cannot. ActivPerfusion delivers dye-free, real-time blood-perfusion imaging using laser speckle contrast imaging, while ActivICG supports conventional indocyanine green visualization of structures such as bile ducts. The module is powered by the ActivEdge platform, a hardware-agnostic computer-vision, AI and machine-learning stack the company is building to turn intraoperative data into real-time surgical guidance. Activ Surgical performed the first autonomous robotic soft-tissue surgery in 2018, received FDA 510(k) clearance for ActivSight in April 2021 and CE Mark approval in December 2022, and sells on a subscription model with no capital-equipment purchase. The company publishes no public developer program, API, SDK or machine-readable API contract as of this profiling pass; its public technical surface is regulatory (EU MDR declarations of conformity, ISO 13485:2016) and clinical (peer-reviewed studies and white papers).

Activ Surgical is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Healthcare, Medical Devices, Surgery, and Surgical Robotics.

Activ Surgical’s developer surface includes engineering blog, support, and 13 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Health regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/activ-surgical: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts. Want it done for you?
