KETRAN

Where innovation becomes reality

Most technology adoption failures are not technical. They fail because the social, ethical, organisational, and governance conditions for real use were not built alongside the technology itself. Ketran works precisely at that intersection. We help organisations build and deploy technology that is trusted, used, and sustained across health, disability, aged care, and government.

Start a conversation How we work

Five service models, one integrated approach

Embedded expert advice across the full adoption lifecycle — from early-stage concept through real-world evaluation and deployment.

Framework & Evidence Facilitation

Project-based

Evidence frameworks, adoption standards, and implementation roadmaps that help government bodies, funders, and peak organisations make formal decisions.

Concept Development

Early stage

Turning early-stage ideas into testable prototypes. We validate fast — before significant investment is committed — working alongside the people who will use the technology.

Product Development Support

Development stage

Supporting the development of a product from early build through to launch — keeping scientific evidence, technical ambition, human realities, and governance requirements aligned as the project moves.

Adoption Readiness Assessment

Pre-deployment

An independent assessment of whether a product is ready for real-world deployment — covering technical performance, usability, ethical risk, and evidence standards.

Ketran-100

Deployed / deployment-ready

Independent real-user evaluations of health and assistive technology at or near deployment — fast, rigorous, and publicly reported.

20+ years of applied work — deployed at national scale

Built on deep applied work across health, disability, aged care, and government — including 10+ years at CSIRO — co-designing, evaluating, and deploying technology. Prior work, which informs the expertise Ketran brings to every engagement, spans startup support at different stages (e.g., Reset Moves, gheorg, LIV, and Triggar Media) as well as national deployments such as:

CALD Assist

1M+ users. Official interpretation support tool embedded in NSW Health and Western Health. 7 national awards.

NDIA AI-enabled AT

Independent framework now informing national assistive technology policy in Australia.

Smarter Safer Home

Smart home platform to support independent living, implemented across Australia and Singapore.

MAX Robotics Platform

Deployed in South Australian schools to support children with disabilities.

CAPS Stroke

Secondary prevention of stroke technology designed and evaluated with stroke survivors.

AI in Healthcare

Co-developed national policy roadmap for AI adoption in Australian healthcare.

About our people →

Built for organisations navigating complex adoption

Health, Disability & Aged Care Providers

Evaluating and deploying AI, digital platforms, or assistive technology at scale — where adoption risk is the hard problem, not the build.

Government Agencies & Peak Bodies

Navigating responsible AI and digital health policy — needing independent, technically credible advice that bridges engineering and governance.

Mission-driven Technology Companies

Building products — including AI systems — that need to earn legitimacy in regulated or socially complex environments.

Investors & Funders

Seeking independent assessment and advice, from ideation to implementation.
