Microsoft Scout shipped at Build. An always-on personal agent that knows your calendar, your inbox, your files.

Tula runs on the same open-source runtime and knows your labs, your medications, your conditions.

One for the employee. One for the patient.

Join us June 30 at Microsoft NERD Center in Cambridge. Paul Swider goes inside Tula's architecture live: a self-hosted OpenClaw deployment that pulls a live clinical record from Epic via SMART-on-FHIR, runs local inference with MedGemma, and packages capabilities as auditable skills using the open SKILL.md standard.

You will leave with a working mental model of the agent harness pattern and what changes when the data is PHI instead of email.

Calling all healthcare developers, cloud architects, AI engineers, clinicians, researchers, and digital health builders.

Our June BOSHUG Meetup will feature a technical walkthrough of Tula, an Apache 2.0 open-source project from RealActivity.

Paul J. Swider will explain how Tula uses a self-hosted OpenClaw deployment, connects to Epic via SMART-on-FHIR, stores data locally as FHIR R4, runs local inference with MedGemma, and packages capabilities as modular, auditable skills using SKILL.md.

This is a great session for anyone thinking about how agentic AI systems can be implemented in healthcare environments.

Microsoft Scout, meet Tula.

At Build, Microsoft introduced Scout an always-on personal agent designed to understand your calendar, inbox, and files.

Now imagine that same agent runtime extended to patient care.

On Tuesday, June 30, join the Boston Healthcare Cloud & AI Community for a technical session with Paul J. Swider, RealActivity CEO, Chief AI Lead, and BOSHUG Founder, as he walks through:

How Tula uses the same open-source agent runtime
How it connects to clinical data through SMART-on-FHIR
What changes when the data is PHI instead of email
How local inference, FHIR R4, MedGemma, and modular skills fit together

This is a session for developers, healthcare technologists, AI builders, researchers, and anyone thinking seriously about how agentic systems can be applied responsibly in healthcare.

Most hospitals are about to run two kinds of AI agents. The ones their staff use, and the ones their patients are already using on their own.

The staff side is getting governed. The patient side is wide open, running on consumer apps with no connection to anyone's real medical record.

Aria governs both from one place, with the patient side grounded in the actual record. The patient version is ready to pilot now.

Build this week made one thing clear: the enterprise agent era is here.

Microsoft put OpenClaw at the center of it and spent the keynote on governance and containment, how to let an autonomous agent act on real data safely.

For those of us in healthcare, that raises a sharper question. Enterprise agents live in work data. A patient's health agent would live in the clinical record.

The risk surface is not the same, and neither is the governance bar.
Worth discussing in this community:

What does agent governance look like when the data is a patient's medical record, not a work document?

Where does SMART on FHIR sit as the access layer?

Is the NIST AI Risk Management Framework the right organizing lens for patient-facing health AI?

Curious what the builders and clinicians here think.

This is the conversation healthcare should be having while the enterprise works out its own version.

AI agents are moving from experimentation to production. The next challenge is trust.

As organizations build more agentic systems, the question is no longer just whether an AI agent can complete a task.

The better question is:

Can teams verify what it did, why it did it, and whether the outcome can be trusted?

Our founder, Paul Swider will be speaking at M365 Community Days NYC on July 31 with a session focused on exactly that:

From Vibes to Verifiable with Tula, OpenClaw, and Waza

This session will explore practical approaches for making AI-assisted work more grounded, testable, and accountable, especially for teams building agents that need to hold up in real-world production environments.

Last night was a reminder of why we love this community and why we do what we do.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for BOSHUG at Boston Tech Week. We were thrilled to bring together so many passionate people interested in healthcare, AI, cloud, and enterprise technology.

The conversations don't stop here.

Boston Tech Week is still underway, and there are many great opportunities to connect with innovators, founders, builders, and industry leaders across the city.

We hope you'll continue exploring, learning, and supporting the broader Boston tech community.

And of course, we're already excited for our next BOSHUG meetup on June 30.

See you there!

Boston Tech Week Day 3 is here, and the energy is real.

Today's calendar is packed with healthcare AI, agent infrastructure, biotech, founders, builders.

🔗 https://vist.ly/55svm

Boston is showing up for this week in a big way, and we are proud to be part of it as an official founding host.

Tonight, BOSHUG brings the healthcare AI community together at the Microsoft NERD Center for our monthly community meetup.

Our founder Paul Swider takes the stage with a session that goes straight to the heart of what enterprise healthcare teams need to know right now, how to own the runtime, not just pick the tools.

This is what Boston Tech Week is about. Not just the hype. The work.

If you are registered, we will see you tonight at 5:30 PM at the Microsoft NERD Center in Cambridge. Come ready to build!

Real enterprise agents are heterogeneous.

Tonight we’ll explore how Microsoft infrastructure, OpenClaw, Tula, and Waza come together to create AI systems that are:

✔️ Inspectable
✔️ Self-hosted
✔️ Permission-scoped
✔️ Verifiable

Join us at Microsoft NERD Center, or catch the livestream if you can’t make it onsite.

Tomorrow at Boston Tech Week Meetup, our founder Paul Swider takes the BOSHUG stage to walk through something he just shipped.

A patient portal built by a patient, for the patient, in a weekend. Five hospitals pulled via SMART on FHIR. ICD-10 Z codes extracted from chat history. Air quality, Census ACS, and Garmin HRV all sitting in the same longitudinal record. All running on hardware the patient owns.

If you build healthcare software in Boston, this is the session worth showing up for.
