Hoppr and Ferrum Health Partner to Deliver Foundation Model Development Suite for Healthcare

Hoppr and Ferrum Health, an AI-insights service provider, have announced a partnership to launch a full foundation-model development suite designed specifically for healthcare organizations. The platform will allow hospitals, research centers and developers to build or fine-tune large medical AI models using their own imaging and clinical datasets while keeping all data within a secure, compliance-focused environment. The integrated suite offers development tooling, data curation, model training, evaluation frameworks, interoperability and seamless deployment into Ferrum's governance layer.

The initiative reflects growing interest in health-system–owned AI, where organizations want more control over model performance, data privacy and clinical integration. The Hoppr–Ferrum approach emphasizes end-to-end tooling tied directly to clinical governance. For health systems dealing with variable imaging protocols and diverse patient populations, localized model adaptation is increasingly viewed as essential for safe and reliable AI deployment.
