Platforms
Cogience builds AI-enabled platforms, purpose-built to compress how market access engagements actually run. Cogience.Advise — our virtual advisory board — is the flagship platform, with additional tooling in active development.
Cogience.Advise · Virtual advisory board
Asynchronous payer engagement
at global scale.
Supports advisory work across all disease areas and drug indications, with specifics tailored to rare, ultra-rare, and orphan drug programmes — where the experts who matter most are few, dispersed, and rarely available for live meetings.
How it works
From scoping to deliverable in three weeks.
-
01
Curate the panel
Five to ten senior advisors from Cogience's global network — payers, HTA evaluators, KOLs, patient advocates.
-
02
Launch engagement
Secure, closed-group platform. Advisors contribute on their own schedule over two to three weeks.
-
03
Senior moderation
Cogience partner moderates throughout — drawing in quiet voices, probing emerging themes, no junior layer.
-
04
Deliver outputs
Executive summary in 72 hours. Full insight report in two weeks. Structured exports for value dossiers and HTA submissions.
Tailored for rare diseases
Built around the decisions HTA bodies actually make.
Where the platform earns its keep is in indications where in-person advisory is impractical — orphan drug expert pools are thin and global, busy specialists engage in ten-minute gaps, and HTA bodies increasingly demand patient-relevant evidence.
Engagement design maps directly onto rare disease and orphan drug decision criteria for each market:
- NICE Highly Specialised Technologies
- NICE severity modifier
- CADTH rare disease review
- HAS orphan drug pathway & ASMR
- G-BA AMNOG with orphan provisions
- AIFA Innovation Committee
- PBAC Life Saving Drugs Programme
- Japan Sakigake
- US payer archetypes
Patient and caregiver input is a first-class workflow — not an add-on — matching the direction of travel across NICE, CADTH, HAS, and G-BA.
