IVF’s AI Future Is Closer Than You Think, But It Must Be Built Around Clinical Insight
Artificial Intelligence isn’t just a future concept in fertility care, it’s already starting to shape clinical decision-making in IVF.
Across research settings and early adopters, AI tools are being trialled to support:
- Optimised ovulation trigger timing– improving the maturity rate of retrieved eggs
- Advanced follicle tracking– predicting which follicles are most likely to develop successfully
- Image-based embryo scoring– reducing human error in selection decisions
These innovations are exciting. They offer the potential to personalise treatment protocols with more precision than ever before. For patients, that could mean fewer cycles, more clarity, and better outcomes. For clinics, it could mean reduced variability, fewer missed windows, and more confident recommendations.
But here’s what matters:
AI should automate the tasks that don’t need a human touch so clinicians can focus on the ones that do. Appointment reminders, scheduling, treatment updates- these are essential, but they don’t require empathy or clinical judgement.
That’s where technology can step in.
By freeing teams from repetitive admin, AI makes space for what truly matters: expertise, meaningful conversations and emotional support.
The result? More time for high-quality, compassionate care and better outcomes for everyone.
At Salve, we believe digital tools should automate mundane tasks, so humans can focus on providing the best care. That’s why we’re focused on building technology that gives teams more time for patients, not more admin. Whether it’s digitising workflows, streamlining communication, or integrating safely with clinical systems, our role is to empower the professionals who know their patients best.
As AI begins to play a bigger role in IVF, the question isn’t whether we’ll use it, but how we’ll do it ethically, transparently, and clinically responsibly.
The future of fertility is data-informed, not data-led. And we’re building toward that future- one integration at a time.
