ClinTrialFinder is an AI-powered clinical trial matching tool that democratizes access to research opportunities by converting complex trial data into ranked, evidence-backed recommendations in plain language. The service advocates strongly for Articles 12 (privacy), 19 (information freedom), 25 (health), and 27 (scientific participation) through its core mission of removing informational barriers to healthcare decision-making. Structurally, the platform supports these rights through free universal access, privacy protections, and algorithmic transparency, while explicitly disclaiming medical authority to preserve user autonomy and professional oversight.
