Harbor
Harbor is an AI-powered EDC platform that turns clinical trial protocols into validated database builds and automates
The Problem
Clinical trial sponsors and CROs running studies today rely on legacy EDC systems that function like digital paper, requiring weeks-long manual builds, standalone CRF and source document creation projects, and manual data entry from sites. According to testimonials on the page, creating source documents and CRFs was previously a two-month standalone project, and vendors quoted 10-12 week timelines with hefty price tags. Sites typically wait 7-10 days for data to become visible after entry, and CRAs spend hours manually reviewing data against source records. This slows study startup, delays data visibility for sponsors, and consumes staff time on busywork instead of trial oversight.
The Solution
Harbor offers an EDC platform built around three AI tools included in every license: Magic Build parses a protocol PDF and generates a draft EDC build, schedule of events, CRFs, and source documents in about 10 minutes. Magic Capture automatically extracts data from paper, eSource, EHR records, or other sources into study forms with no custom site configuration, linking every extracted value back to its original source for review, which the page states cuts data entry time by 90%. Magic Monitor acts as a CRA assistant that reviews study data against source records using custom monitoring rules to flag issues such as out-of-range measurements. The platform supports a human-in-the-loop model so a person reviews and confirms AI-extracted data, and it includes compliance controls (21 CFR Part 11, HIPAA, GDPR, immutable audit trails, eSignatures, role-based access) plus a validation package with risk and traceability matrices provided with every license.
