Qrest

Mission

Qrest is an AI-powered musculoskeletal assessment, rehabilitation, and monitoring platform designed to reduce total insurer costs, improve clinic productivity, and provide zero-cost access for patients.

The challenge

Musculoskeletal pain is the #1 cause of disability in the Netherlands, affecting ~50% of adults annually and costing insurers over €6.5 billion per year, projected to rise sharply with ageing. Yet care remains fragmented and reactive. Home exercise adherence is low due to lack of feedback and personalization. Access is uneven, with financial barriers for patients without supplementary insurance and long waitlists in specialised care. Early sessions are costly, while conservative prevention is underutilised. The result is poorer outcomes, relapse cycles, and escalating insurer spending on imaging, specialist visits, and surgery instead of scalable, preventive rehabilitation solutions.

The solution

Qrest is a digital health software platform supporting assessment, triage, and rehabilitation management of musculoskeletal pain. It combines computer-vision–based movement analysis with structured clinical decision support, integrated directly into physiotherapy clinics. Patients complete a guided digital intake and movement assessment before or alongside care. Clinicians receive an objective, structured report and decide whether to continue digitally or escalate to in-person treatment. The platform generates personalized exercise programs and tracks progress over time, with the physiotherapist continuously adjusting care based on measurable outcomes. By reducing dropouts and improving adherence, Qrest lowers per-patient-costs, accelerates recovery, and enables scalable, contract-ready digital physiotherapy integration.
