The Trophy suite

One workflow. Four tools.
Built for the moment before you build anything.

Every tool in your MedTech stack — your QMS, your PLM, your requirements management system — assumes someone already did the hard work of figuring out the right problem to solve, the right user to solve it for, and the right requirements to capture that intent. Trophy is that someone. Four connected tools that take you from raw clinical insight to a submission-ready requirements package, in the order the work actually happens.

Where Trophy fits in your stack

Trophy is additive, not competitive.

Your QMS and PLM stay intact. Trophy gives them better inputs — the right problem, the right audience, the right requirements, cleanly exported into whatever system your team already uses.

01 · Clinical Problem Assessment

Trophy FINDER

Available now

Before you pick a requirement, pick the right problem. FINDER turns messy market scans, stakeholder interviews, and whiteboard sessions into a ranked portfolio of opportunities worth building.

Request 14-day trial →

Problem discovery framework

Structured problem statements with standardized evaluation criteria — market size, competitive density, technical feasibility, strategic fit. Not another spreadsheet; a system.

Compare-and-rank

Score problems side-by-side with weighted criteria your team agrees on. See which opportunities hold up under scrutiny and which fade when you look closely.

Trophy

Promote to TRACE

When a problem wins, one click creates a Trophy TRACE project seeded with its value proposition, stakeholders, and early-stage context. No re-typing. FINDER and TRACE share a spine, so the work flows forward instead of getting re-entered.

Why it matters
Most MedTech programs fail at problem selection, not execution. Teams commit 18–36 months and $2–5M building the wrong thing because the initial problem was never pressure-tested. FINDER makes that pressure-test a repeatable step, not a series of hallway debates.
Feeds into PORTAL and TRACE. FINDER outputs feed directly into PORTAL and TRACE — no re-entry, no lost context.
02 · Customer & Stakeholder Intelligence

Trophy PORTAL

Available now

A systematic way to identify, research, and activate the clinical users, economic buyers, and champions your product needs. The people intelligence your CRM doesn't capture because they haven't bought anything yet.

Publications

PubMed search tied to the customer — title, journal, year, authors. AI relevance filtering disambiguates namesakes so you're always reading the right person.

Payments

CMS Open Payments data pulled live. Year-by-year general + research totals, top companies, top yearly sponsor. Industry relationships in one glance.

AI publication analysis

Topics of interest, how their research has shifted over time, and where it's likely heading next. One click per customer.

Co-author graph

Pulled from PubMed automatically. One click adds a frequent co-author as a new HCP in your database, keeping the relationship graph you've been trying to track on sticky notes.

Interaction Preps & Synced Notes

AI-drafted interview guides and observation templates anchored to the customer's profile, publications, notes, and the specific project you're prepping for. Editable in-app, exportable to PDF/Word, attachable — so the prep, the edited version, and the transcript all live together.

Patent search

Patents lookup tied to the customer. See what they've filed, what they're named on, and which areas of the IP landscape they're active in.

03 · Requirements Intelligence & Risk Management

Trophy TRACE

Available now

Catch the $300k mistake before it reaches your FDA submission. Value-prop-anchored requirements, AI-native drafting, proactive conflict detection, and design controls that hold up on an audit.

Request 14-day trial → ROI calculator

Value-prop-anchored traceability

Start with the job your product does, not an empty row. Customer Requirements → Product Requirements → Test Methods link automatically and stay visible end-to-end.

AI-native generation

JTBD-driven customer requirements. EARS-format product requirements. INCOSE-quality acceptance criteria. Generated from your product context in seconds, reviewed the way you would review them.

Proactive conflict detection

Two requirements that contradict each other don't wait for DV to get caught. Trophy TRACE flags them when they're written, with the reasoning spelled out.

PR achievement scores

Live readout of where every product requirement is — draft, in review, traced, verified. No more "where are we on DV?" in the Monday stand-up.

Explore to Execute

Explore (pre-design-control) gives early-stage teams practical outputs ("n=5 and a rationale"), not premature regulatory theatre. Execute (design control + beyond) unlocks Gauge R&R, TMV, and statistical sample sizing on demand. Your team moves between them when it's ready — not when a checklist decides.

A DHF foundation you trust

Full change history, rationale capture, and signed-off status on every row. Design History File output is a side effect of working the way you were going to work anyway.

Coming from spreadsheets Startups · Consultants

  • Rationale disappears with the last engineer who left — requirements sit in cells, the "why" sits in nobody's head.
  • No traceability you can defend — a CR → PR → verification chain in Excel breaks the moment someone adds a row out of order.
  • Conflict detection = manual review. You find the contradictions during DV; Trophy TRACE catches them on day one.

Coming from Jama / DOORS Growth-stage · Enterprise

  • Paying $30k+/yr for a 2010-era workflow. Incumbents have bolted AI on; none of them generate requirements from your value proposition.
  • Best features sit behind enterprise tiers. You pay for seats and re-pay to actually use them.
  • Deployment takes weeks. Projects take hours. Heavy tools optimize for IT; Trophy TRACE optimizes for your next design review.

A requirements error costs 10× more at every stage you miss it.

The spreadsheet doesn't catch the gap. It stores it faithfully until it detonates somewhere more expensive. "Rule of Ten," industry standard.

04 · End-to-End Portfolio Visibility

Trophy VISION

Coming soon

A live view of every active program — Explore through commercialization. Residual technical risk, requirement maturity, stakeholder coverage, and where to pull back or double down.

Join early access →

Portfolio health at a glance

Every active project scored on requirement maturity, open conflicts, residual technical risk, and stakeholder engagement. One screen replaces the monthly status deck.

Investment-vs-risk view

Projects plotted on dollars-to-date vs. residual risk. See which programs are on a healthy trajectory and which need a de-risking push before the next funding milestone.

Coverage gaps

Projects with thin champion coverage, or customer interviews older than 90 days, or requirements without verified test methods — surfaced automatically, without a manager chasing them down.

Built for leadership
VPs of R&D don't need more disconnected dashboards. They need one that pulls from the actual work in real-time — FINDER's problems, PORTAL's stakeholders, TRACE's requirements — instead of reconciling three separate reports. VISION is that one view.
Live data from TRACE. Vision pulls live data from active TRACE projects — no manual reporting, no separate data entry.

Start with the tool you need today. Grow into the suite.

Trophy FINDER, Trophy PORTAL, and Trophy TRACE are live now. Trophy VISION is coming. One bundle price; every tool included as it ships.
