About Voxsanity
Voxsanity pulls clinical trial registrations, drug approvals, and health research funding records from public government databases and writes them in plain English. It is a data presentation platform, not a medical advice service.
What Voxsanity is
Government health registries hold an enormous amount of information about treatment research in progress. ClinicalTrials.gov lists over 500,000 trials. The FDA publishes every drug approval. The NIH publishes every research grant it funds. This data is public, free, and legally available to anyone.
The problem is that most of it is written for researchers and regulators, not patients. Eligibility criteria for clinical trials are written at a reading level that requires around 22 years of formal education to understand. Most patients never see this data at all.
Voxsanity takes the same public records and writes them in plain English, with no medical advice. Updated nightly, except PBS listing data, which is updated monthly because the PBS publishes a new Schedule once a month. What we show is never influenced by who funds us: see our editorial policy.
What Voxsanity is for
Voxsanity is an information service. Its job is to take the health data Australian and international governments already publish — clinical trial registrations, medicine approvals, PBS subsidy listings, medicine shortage reports and research funding records — and put it in plain English, so you can see what is publicly on the record and take it to your own health professional.
It is not built for, and should not be used for, working out what is wrong with you, preventing or monitoring a condition, predicting how it will go, or treating it. Voxsanity does not assess you, produces nothing specific to your situation, and offers no clinical decision support. Nothing here is a recommendation that you take, avoid, start or stop any treatment, medicine or trial. Those are decisions for you and the health professional treating you.
The formal version of this is set out in our terms of use.
What Voxsanity is not
Voxsanity does not provide medical advice. Nothing on this site should be used to make decisions about your health without first speaking to a qualified medical professional.
Voxsanity does not tell you which treatment to pursue. It reports what is publicly known about treatment research and leaves clinical judgment to clinicians.
Voxsanity is not endorsed by the TGA, FDA, NIH, or any government body. It presents public data from those sources.
How it works
Every night, automated scripts pull updated data from ClinicalTrials.gov, openFDA, NIH Reporter, and other public government registries. That data is processed and stored in our database. Plain English descriptions of eligibility criteria are generated and stored alongside the original text. The website is rebuilt daily from this stored data.
The original source record is linked on every trial page so you can verify the underlying data directly. Every trial card shows the date the data was last pulled from the source registry.

Medical reviewer
Voxsanity is offering an open, volunteer medical reviewer role. It is an unpaid position for a qualified health professional who reviews AI-generated plain English content for accuracy before it is published. The role is not currently filled. In exchange, the reviewer receives lifetime free access to the platform and public credit by name on this page, worded however they choose once they take it on. If you are a registered health professional interested in reviewing content on this basis, please get in touch.
Who built this
Voxsanity was built by an Australian founder who saw a gap in how people find out what treatments they can actually access in Australia, and believed it could be made simpler. The platform is independent, privately funded, and Australian-registered. The same founder also built Employer Check, an ABN and business-registration lookup tool, unrelated to Voxsanity's editorial content.
