Overview:
WIKIQUIP is an emerging national digital platform designed to ‘equip’ occupational therapists with accessible, evidence-based information supporting effective and consistent assistive technology prescription. Co-founded by two passionate OTs, WIKIQUIP is a community-driven, resource hub that streamlines access to AT-related information, funding pathways, and practical guidance navigating multiple funding schemes.

Problem:
Across Australia, therapists encounter fragmented access to client supports and AT resources, compounded by inconsistent and constantly evolving prescribing guidelines across funding systems. This fragmentation contributes to inefficiencies, variability in clinical practice, and reduced equity in AT access for end-users.

With more than 34,000 OTs and 4.8 million people in Australia experiencing mobility, communication or self-care limitations, a dedicated AT resource hub is urgently needed. WIKIQUIP seeks to transform OT practice by streamlining information access.

Solution/Technology:
WIKIQUIP’s design, content, and functionality reflect real-world clinical needs. The platform is OT-led, outcomes-focused, and community-driven, aligning directly with the profession’s core values of participation and independence.

Currently in prototype, WIKIQUIP is a secure, collaborative online hub that combines clinical moderation with community contribution, enabling OTs to access and share evidence-based information, funding guidelines, and practical tools that facilitate clinicians to navigate the what, why, and how of AT prescription across funding schemes and practice contexts. The platform fosters professional collaboration to enhance equity, consistency, and confidence in practice, whilst maintaining compliance with Australian privacy standards.

Competitive Advantage:
WIKIQUIP focusses on practice-not-products; empowering OTs through knowledge translation to strengthen AT service delivery nationwide, bridging policy, practice, and possibility to facilitate high-quality client outcomes.

OTbuilder is a web-based application designed for paediatric occupational therapists (OTs) to create personalised home activity programs. It enables clinicians to select developmentally appropriate activities across fine motor, gross motor, and sensory domains to generate clear, visually supported home programs. OTbuilder’s mission is to empower OTs to create individualised home programs that support meaningful participation for children and provide clear, achievable activities for families.

Paediatric OTs often spend significant time creating home programs including, sourcing images, and formatting resources, or rely on generic handouts that are not tailored to the child. With increasing caseloads and tighter NDIS funding, clinicians are increasingly time poor. OTbuilder addresses these challenges by streamlining the creation of targeted home programs. OTbuilder improves occupational therapy practice by enabling clinicians to quickly design goal-specific home programs, increasing consistency, therapy carryover, and effectiveness of intervention for children and families.

OTbuilder is a searchable database of over 100 paediatric occupational therapy activities with clear descriptions and visuals. Clinicians can quickly select activities to generate a targeted home program for their client. The product is live and in testing, with ongoing refinement informed by clinician feedback and plans to expand the activity library, enhance accessibility, and broaden dissemination.
Unlike generic platforms, OTbuilder is OT specific and paediatric focused. Barriers to adoption include established workflows, addressed through intuitive design and demonstrated efficiency. Early clinician interest has been received, with the goal of widespread adoption within 12 months.

Overview
The OT Foundry is a digital clinical support platform designed to improve the delivery of OT services. It helps OTs provide safer, clearer decisions in complex areas such as home modifications by translating evidence and clinical reasoning into real-world learning that OTs can access at the point of assessment.

Problem Statement
Occupational therapists make high-stakes decisions in home modifications, often with limited applied guidance. Education is fragmented, theoretical, or disconnected from real-world environments, leading to inconsistent recommendations, reduced confidence, and increased risk. This is particularly evident in home modifications, where errors can have serious consequences. The OT Foundry targets community-based OTs and is designed by experienced clinicians to reflect real clinical workflows.

Solution/Technology
The OT Foundry offers short, visually engaging modules delivered in a clear, accessible, light-hearted tone to support focus and knowledge retention without increasing cognitive load. Clinicians select targeted content relevant to upcoming assessments, such as grabrail placement or locating wall studs. Modules combine real client footage, task analysis, visual overlays, and PEOP- and standards-based prompts to support recommendations. A minimum viable prototype has been developed, with further modules and user testing planned for early 2026.

Competition / Advantage
Existing CPD and guideline resources are often lengthy, theoretical, and difficult to apply at the point of care. The OT Foundry delivers concise, just-in-time learning embedded directly into clinical decision-making.

Sales / Marketing
Within 12 months, The OT Foundry aims to launch initial modules nationally for individual purchase, with a subscription model planned as the content library expands.

Drive With Me is a structured, OT-designed parent and teen coaching pathway that supports autistic, ADHD and neurodivergent young people towards driving readiness and independence, regardless of where they live. Delivered via telehealth and online modules, it empowers parents as active partners and uses real-life community mobility practice rather than relying solely on face-to-face driver training. My broader mission is to expand safe driving and community mobility for neurodivergent individuals, particularly where geography, access and funding constraints limit traditional services.

Many neurodivergent teens want to drive, or their parents want them to, yet standard driver education rarely accounts for sensory sensitivity, executive functioning challenges, anxiety and parental stress. Families often become stuck at the learner stage or avoid practice drives altogether. For regional and remote clients, cost, travel and limited access to driver-trained OTs add further barriers, and reduced NDIS travel funding makes frequent in-person sessions less viable.

Drive With Me reframes driving as a legitimate occupational goal that can be scaffolded and delivered remotely. It positions parents as purposeful co-therapists, uses graded exposure and regulation frameworks, and reduces reliance on high-travel, one-to-one sessions. The program is fully developed and in use, with several interstate families already enrolled, and a library of more than 60 online lessons. Over the next 12 months, I plan a formal pilot evaluation, broader national and possible international roll-out and peer-reviewed reporting, with a view to offering a replicable, telehealth coaching pathway that OTs can integrate alongside traditional driver assessment and on-road instruction.

Scripto addresses the documentation crisis facing Australian occupational therapists. With OTs spending 50-80% of their time on paperwork, burnout is epidemic. For every 500 NDIS assessments, OTs spend 5,000 hours writing reports—time that could serve clients directly.

Scripto is a plug-and-play AI-assisted report writing platform that reduces report writing time by 50%. It operates like a health data compliant “AI project” for long reports, requiring zero technical expertise. Built by a practicing OT.

Version 2.0 has been co-designed with 150+ active users based on real-world feedback from 500+ processed reports. We provide template-building support and prompting guidance, enabling clinicians to tailor workflows to their practice needs. We're partnering with clinical experts to co-design report templates across allied health fields.

This advances OT practice by:
--Reclaiming professional identity. OTs chose this profession to help people, not fill forms. Scripto returns focus to therapeutic relationships.
--Democratising expertise. Our "clinician-in-the-loop" approach provides evidence-based clinical reasoning frameworks, reducing supervision burden and improving consistency.
--Addressing workforce retention. By cutting cognitive load, we combat burnout—critical as we face allied health workforce shortages.
--Setting ethical AI standards. Our privacy-compliant, Australian-hosted, deidentified approach demonstrates how group practices and solo practitioners can integrate AI into healthcare responsibly.
--Expanding workforce capacity. Partnerships will establish templates for injury compensation, DVA, and aged care sectors—serving Australia's 200,000+ allied health workforce.
--Scripto shifts allied health from paperwork to outcomes.
