# K01 > Privacy-preserving synthetic healthcare data platform. K01 (K01 ehf.) generates realistic synthetic patient data with differential privacy guarantees. No real patient information is used, stored, or exposed. Based in Iceland (EU/EEA). ## What K01 Does K01 provides an API-first platform for generating synthetic healthcare datasets. Users describe the patient cohort they need, and K01 generates FHIR-compatible synthetic patient records — including demographics, diagnoses, procedures, observations, and medications — in minutes rather than months of data access approvals. Key capabilities: - Differential privacy guarantees (mathematical proof that no individual can be re-identified) - FHIR R4 & R5 compatible output - RESTful API with SDKs for Python, R, and JavaScript - On-premise or cloud deployment - 22,000+ patients generated, <100ms response time ## Use Cases - Pharma R&D and clinical trial simulation - Hospital and health system research - Healthcare AI and ML model training - Digital health product development and QA - Academic research with privacy-compliant datasets ## Compliance - GDPR compliant — European data residency in Iceland - EU AI Act ready — synthetic data supports compliant AI development - HIPAA by design — synthetic data is not PHI - Enterprise ready — BAA available, SOC 2 roadmap in progress ## Pricing - Starter: Pay per dataset (1,000 patients, FHIR compatible, email support) - Scale: Monthly subscription (5,000 patients/month, API access, priority support) - Enterprise: Custom pricing (unlimited patients, on-premise deployment, dedicated support & SLA) - Academic/research institutions: discounted rates available ## Team - Dr. Arinbjörn Kolbeinsson — CEO & Co-founder. ML researcher, formerly Samsung AI and Evidation Health. PhD from Imperial College London. - Dr. Benedikt Kolbeinsson — CTO & Co-founder.
