The Problem
Your clinicians can't use what they can't find.
You invest years developing rigorous, evidence-based guidelines. Then they're published as PDFs and printed booklets that sit unopened — and you have no way to see whether anyone is using them.
“We had a website, a PDF, and a booklet — and the layout was different for each one. A nightmare.”
Joëlle Verluyten, EACSThe Solution
A branded home for your guidelines — and a way to see them used.
GuidelineHQ turns your guidelines into a living, custom-branded platform clinicians actually reach for.
01
White-glove content transfer
Send us your guidelines in whatever format you have them — PDFs, documents, spreadsheets. Our team digitizes, structures, and builds them into interactive tools. You review everything before launch.
02
Custom-branded launch
Your name, your colors, your logo — leading on every screen, on iOS, Android, and the web. Clinicians use your platform, not ours.
03
Update, measure, repeat
Publish changes the moment they're approved, push announcements to your audience, and see exactly which guidelines are being used — and where.

Case Study — EACS
From 10,000 printed booklets to guidelines at the bedside.
The European AIDS Clinical Society distributed its guidelines as printed pocket booklets — expensive to produce, quickly out of date, and impossible to measure. With GuidelineHQ, EACS launched a custom-branded app and website that puts the current guidelines in clinicians' hands the moment they're updated.
“There's a good team behind it. They come to you with helpful solutions.”
Joëlle Verluyten, EACSThe Alternatives
The other ways to get guidelines to clinicians — and where they fall short.
Option One
The Status Quo
PDFs and printed booklets are inexpensive to produce — but they go unread, fall out of date, and give you no way to see whether clinicians are using them.
Option Two
A Shared Library
Placing your guidelines in someone else's app gets them onto a device — but your content lives under another brand, alongside everyone else's, with little control and no identity of your own.
Option Three
Building Your Own
Custom development gives you full control — at the cost of years of boutique work, ongoing maintenance, and rebuilding guideline technology that already exists.
GuidelineHQ is the path in between: a platform that's entirely your brand, built on guideline technology refined over 15 years — without the wait, the cost, or the maintenance of building it yourself.

Common Questions
What guideline organizations ask first.
Can we restrict access by membership?
Yes. You control access by membership status or role, so members, non-members, and different clinician groups see exactly what you choose. Your platform, your rules.
How long does it take to launch?
A couple of months. Our team handles the content transfer — digitizing and structuring your guidelines — and you review everything before go-live. There's no major IT project on your side.
What if we already have an app?
We can migrate your existing content into GuidelineHQ and give your team direct editorial control — without starting over.
How is it priced?
Pricing reflects the scope of your content, your audience, and the features you need. Tell us about your program and we'll put together a quote.
