Show HN: AIRiskCalc – AI-Powered Health Risk Calculators

https://www.airiskcalc.com
2•mosbyllc•1h ago
Last year, my doctor mentioned I should pay attention to my cardiovascular risk. I searched for online calculators and found two problems: they were either filled with ads or simply threw numbers at you without explaining what they meant.

So I built AIRiskCalc. It's a collection of free health risk assessment tools with AI interpretation.

Currently live with five calculators:

ASCVD Risk (10-year cardiovascular risk based on ACC/AHA 2013 Pooled Cohort Equations) Type 2 Diabetes Risk (ADA assessment model) Cardiovascular Risk (multi-factor evaluation) CVD Risk (cerebrovascular focus) Miscarriage Risk (early pregnancy assessment) Implementation: Next.js 15, Cloudflare Pages. AI layer uses Vercel AI SDK with Claude.

One detail I paid attention to: the ASCVD formula involves logarithmic transformations and coefficient matrices from the original 2013 paper. I transcribed the equations into TypeScript and verified against sample data in the paper's appendix.

Each calculator displays the reference source in code comments. Results include AI-generated explanations of what the numbers mean. No personal data is collected.

The question I'm thinking about: where's the line between helpful AI interpretation and overstepping into medical advice? I want the tool to be useful without replacing professional judgment.

Feedback welcome on this balance.

The model appears to be based on outdated info judging from the references shown in the FAQ. It did not cite the new PREVENT risk equations reference.
