AI system that maps operating rooms in 3D expands access

VitVio has launched Vetro, a 3D-native AI platform set to transform operating room management for surgeons.

The AI innovation is now available to hospitals and health systems across the US, Europe, the UK, Latin America and the Middle East.

After successful deployment in select operating rooms in the US, Europe, and the UK, the platform, designed for operating room intelligence, aims to enhance surgical efficiency and patient outcomes.

Vetro sets itself apart from traditional 2D systems, which only record basic surgical steps and require manual input, by using a multi-camera setup, ambient sensing, and computer vision to create real-time 3D spatial maps.

Powered by VitVio’s Spatial Context Engine, it continuously records and structures data to build live spatial maps while its AI turns every movement of people, instruments and equipment into a live, structured record of what’s happening, when, where and why.

Whether it’s detecting when cases start and end, flagging delays, orchestrating staff, cutting tool waste or automating reports, Vetro removes the guesswork behind wasted, underused and unplanned theatre time to get more patients into surgery and cut waiting times.

All of this is done while respecting staff and patient privacy. Performing just one additional hour-long case a day has been shown to increase a single operating suite’s profitability by $300,000 a year, while hospitals using Vetro can see profitability rise 23% (depending on hospital and procedure type).

By focusing on processes rather than people, all data is anonymised at the point of capture, in a system that’s fully compliant.

Founded in 2024 by Thomas Knox, Dr Peter Rennert, Maks Kozarzewski and Aleks Pajewski, VitVio previously partnered with the Royal Orthopaedic Hospital NHS Foundation Trust. Its platform is now operational in prominent hospitals and private groups across major cities, with further expansions planned.

CEO Thomas Knox said: ‘We've spent two years building out Vetro to work under real pressure, in real operating rooms. Now it’s time to bring the impact our early partners are seeing to hospitals and health systems around the world.’
