About TCMIO

TCMIO is the intelligence platform for Traditional Chinese Medicine. We combine structured knowledge, research evidence, safety systems, and AI to make TCM information accessible, reliable, and useful.

What Makes TCMIO Different

Unlike traditional blogs or encyclopedias, TCMIO is built as a structured knowledge base where every entity (herb, formula, symptom, condition, pattern) is connected through explicit relationships. Research evidence is linked to specific claims. Safety rules are applied automatically. AI answers are grounded in the knowledge base, not generated from model memory alone.

Our Principles

  • Evidence-Based: Clear distinction between traditional use and modern research evidence.
  • Safety-First: Automatic risk classification and mandatory safety notices on all health pages.
  • Fully Referenced: Every statement linked to sources. PubMed IDs, DOIs, structured references.
  • No Medical Advice: We never provide diagnoses, prescriptions, or personalized treatment recommendations.
