Calerity alternative that finishes the schedule
Stop waiting for suggestions that still need manual fixes. Thrawn's managed service uses mathematical optimization to deliver complete, ACGME-compliant schedules for your residency program.
What Calerity Still Leaves Unfinished
Schedules That Need Finishing
Calerity's approach still surfaces conflicts and edge cases that require your team to intervene, patch, and manually resolve before a schedule is usable.
Compliance Caught Too Late
When ACGME duty hour violations are flagged after a schedule is built, your team bears the burden of rebuilding sections under time pressure.
The Domino Effect Never Ends
Block, call, and clinic schedules built separately create cascading conflicts. One change in one schedule forces manual corrections across all the others.
Finished Schedules Delivered by Mathematicians
Unlike managed services that route around a rule-based engine, Thrawn's proprietary Scheduling Programming Language produces complete, mathematically optimal schedules from your constraints. Your program sends requirements. Thrawn delivers finished Block, Call, Clinic, and Attending schedules. Chief residents and program directors review instead of build.
What You Get Instead of Calerity
Five capabilities that separate mathematical optimization from rule-based managed scheduling services.
Managed Service
Review Finished Schedules Instead of Building Them
Unlike services that still require user intervention to resolve conflicts, Thrawn delivers complete schedules ready for review. Chiefs and program directors approve finished products, not half-built drafts waiting for manual correction.
- No scheduling software to operate
- Complete schedule delivered for review
- Clarification rounds built into workflow
Compliance
ACGME Violations Prevented Before Generation
Thrawn's optimization engine treats ACGME duty hour rules as hard constraints at generation time. Every schedule that reaches your inbox is already compliant. No post-build violation detection, no emergency rebuilds before accreditation visits.
- Violations prevented not detected
- Accreditation audit readiness built in
- 80-hour and rest rules enforced
Cross-Schedule Optimization
Block Call and Clinic Optimized Simultaneously
Thrawn treats Block, Call, Clinic, and Attending schedules as one interconnected system. A single optimization pass eliminates the domino effect that forces manual corrections every time one schedule type changes.
- Single simultaneous optimization pass
- No cascading schedule conflicts
- All schedule types aligned automatically
Fairness Engine
Mathematically Balanced Assignment Distribution
Nights, weekends, holidays, and high-demand rotations are distributed with mathematical precision. No gut-feel balancing or perception of favoritism that rule-based engines struggle to eliminate across large programs.
- Equitable night and weekend distribution
- Holiday assignment balancing
- Removes perception of favoritism
