Intelligence that shapes better conversations
Most engagement platforms start when you log in. Adelo starts earlier. Our proprietary intelligence layer — built on 8.5 billion real-world data points — helps you understand the landscape your HCPs are navigating before you design a single discussion board or advisory board agenda. The result: sharper questions, richer insights, and programmes that directly inform launch strategy.
SDOH analysis
Map the social and environmental context shaping patient outcomes and HCP behaviour.
Geomapping
Map hyperlocal HCP and patient data to pinpoint unmet needs and drive your engagement strategy.
Publications tracking
Monitor real-time publications and evidence to lead the scientific conversation in your market.
Adelo proprietary IP
A proven methodology refined by top-20 pharma companies, now accessible to teams of every size.
Compliance configured to your programme
Every advisory board and KOL programme has its own compliance requirements. Rather than offering a fixed framework and leaving you to adapt, Adelo works with you to configure the right guardrails — your therapeutic area, your markets, your governance.
Programme
Governance
Clear documentation and structured processes for advisory boards, steering committees and KOL engagements — built into every programme from the start.
Off-Label
Safeguards
Proactive off-label protections designed into the programme architecture, keeping your team protected without compromising the quality of engagement.
Adverse Event
Reporting
Structured AE capture workflows embedded directly into your programme — every event flagged, logged and escalated in line with your pharmacovigilance obligations.
Bespoke by Default
No two programmes are the same. We configure compliance around your requirements — not a standardised template.
