Building ChironAI™: A 98/100 Complexity Medical AI Platform Built Solo in 3 Months

By Waleed Faruki, VP of Agentic Engineering at MindHYVE.ai™

🎯 Abstract

This paper-style case study presents the creation of ChironAI™, a comprehensive, enterprise-grade medical AI platform achieving a 98/100 system complexity score, built by a single engineer in under three months. Traditionally, such systems require 15–25 engineers, 24–30 months, and a $15M–$25M budget. This publication details its technical architecture, feature richness, and efficiency metrics, offering an unprecedented demonstration of solo engineering at scale.
