Whre We Hep
Formulytics tracks medicines formularies all day, every day – detecting updates the day they happen.
It allows businesses to monitor product availability and adoption, benchmark competitors, identify early adopters and respond to gaps in access. Formulytics makes the invisible visible. Quickly and accurately.
In some countries, guidelines sit separately to formularies.
Guidelight can provide a real-time view of local guidelines. Once a therapy area is coded, it monitors the environment 24/7, capturing updates for every published guideline and every locality.
Our FOI system monitors updates to unpublished guidelines too, giving customers a 360° view of positioning, prescribing options and recommendations.
Our proprietary indexing tool, the Availability Index is a standard measure of access for every product that allows companies to compare the access availability of products within a locality and across regions.
It takes account of the initiating prescriber, the positioning and restrictions noted within the relevant access documents.
IF IT’S A QUESTION OF ACCESS, WE'LL HELP YOU FIND THE ANSWERS
Pharma companies use ValueBase to answer the big questions. Our solutions track the access environment over time, unlocking rich datasets that inform decision-making at every stage of the product lifecycle.

Our Tools
AUTOMATED INTELLIGENCE. ENGINEERED HERE.
ADA is our custom-designed artificial intelligence tool that works in the background of the business 24/7. ADA is programmed to look through millions of rows of UK formulary data and guidelines every day to flag changes for our data managers to investigate. Inspired by Ada Lovelace –who published the first known computer algorithm – she’s one of the team.
ANA is ADA’s twin sister –her focus is on formularies in markets outside the UK.
Our web scraping system for extracting published data from formularies/access sources. Designed in-house by our data engineers.
Built in-house, Humanae is web resource monitoring software for formulary information.
How We Do It
DIGITAL INGENUITY WITH THE HUMAN TOUCH
Public information on formularies and guidelines is disparate, variable and hard to find. The volume of change each day is vast. If you want to monitor the environment, you cannot do it manually. Digital is the only way.
Our AI-led solutions combine smart data engineering with the human touch. Systems are powered by tools designed in-house by our data engineers, using machine learning and automation to fuel better, quicker data management. Information is reviewed and cleansed by experts, then moved into data systems that fire our innovations.
It’s human and artificial intelligence combining to create actionable insight that helps unlock access to medicines.
