DESKi is a French medical-device software company founded in 2016 in Bordeaux by brothers Bertrand and Olivier Moal, trading publicly under its HeartFocus brand. Its flagship product, HeartFocus, is an FDA-cleared AI cardiac imaging app that runs on iPhone and iPad with Butterfly Network iQ+ and iQ3 handheld ultrasound probes, giving any healthcare professional real-time probe guidance, automatic diagnostic-quality clip recording and live view validation across the 10 standard transthoracic echocardiographic views (PLAX, PSAX-AV, PSAX-MV, PSAX-PM, A4C, A5C, A2C, A3C, SC-4C, SC-IVC). A second product, HeartFocus Link, adds the same AI guidance to existing cart-based ultrasound systems from GE HealthCare, Philips, Siemens Healthineers, Mindray, FUJIFILM Sonosite, Samsung and Canon over a plain HDMI capture path, for education and training only. DESKi holds two FDA 510(k) clearances (K242807, 2025-04-04; K260780, 2026-06-03, product code QJU) and publishes a Coordinated Vulnerability Disclosure process, a HIPAA & HBNR applicability statement, per-probe list pricing and dated electronic instructions for use. Its only machine-facing integration surface is DICOM: exams are transferred from the mobile app to a customer-configured PACS server (server and client AE titles, host, port, optional TLS), and the DICOM conformance statement and CycloneDX SBOM are available only by emailing support. DESKi publishes no public REST or GraphQL API, no OpenAPI or AsyncAPI specification, no SDK, no CLI, no MCP server and no developer portal; portal.heartfocus.ai is a customer licence-management application, not a developer surface.
DESKi is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Health Tech, Medical Imaging, Cardiology, and Ultrasound.
DESKi’s developer surface includes documentation, FAQ, training material, pricing, signup flow, support, engineering blog, and 23 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.
Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for
this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero:
never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and
several others — scorable at all.
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/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/deski: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.

Standards this provider implements or carries. De facto ones are profiled and measured by the API Commons; formal ones come from the standards directory and are linked by the provider's own tags. The evidence column says how each claim was established — not that it was made.

detail: 'DESKi ships regulated end-user software, not a platform: HeartFocus is an FDA-cleared iPhone/iPad app whose only
machine-facing interface is a DICOM push to a PACS the customer configures in-app, and the DICOM conformance statement
that would describe it is available only by emailing support@deski.ai — /openapi.json, /graphql, /llms.txt and every /.well-known/*
path return a real 404 on www.heartfocus.ai and deski.ai, api./developer./link.heartfocus.ai do not resolve in DNS, docs.heartfocus.ai
is an S3 bucket returning 403 AccessDenied, and portal.heartfocus.ai is a licence-management SPA that answers 200 with
the same 467-byte HTML shell for every path probed.'
