Artificial intelligence (AI) technology developer AI Metrics has secured two small business grants from a state grant program in Alabama.
The state's Innovate Alabama Supplemental Grant program has awarded more than $4.5 million in funding to 30 companies to support and develop their business in the state, AI Metrics said. It did not disclose the amount of the two grants it received from Innovate Alabama.
AI Metrics was founded in 2019 and is building software that assesses cancer treatment effectiveness using CT and MRI data; the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) cleared its image analysis platform last year.
AI Metrics holds 20 U.S. and international patents for its software, it said.
![A normal mammogram confirmed by three-year radiologic follow-up illustrates reader-marked regions of interest (ROIs) during (A) unaided (round 1) and (B) artificial intelligence (AI)–assisted (round 2) reading. Each colored dot represents an ROI for recall by a human reader. Readers could mark more than one ROI per case, represented by multiple dots of the same color. During AI-assisted reading, the AI system displayed three visible prompts: two with suspicion of malignancy scores of 35% (left mediolateral oblique [L MLO] and craniocaudal [L CC]) and one with a suspicion of malignancy score of 10% (right craniocaudal [R CC]), shown as polygonal overlays. Without AI, six of 10 readers (60%) marked a false-positive ROI. With AI assistance, this fell to two of 10 (20%). R MLO = right mediolateral oblique.](https://img.auntminnie.com/mindful/smg/workspaces/default/uploads/2026/07/2026-07-14-radiology-mammogram-ai-auto-bias.H0bYO8QlWs.jpg?auto=format%2Ccompress&dpr=2&fit=crop&h=167&q=70&w=250)
