PrecisionOS vs Theator
The two serve different departments. PrecisionOS is an orthopedic residency program's practice library, with VR cases in shoulder, arthroscopy and trauma. Theator is a health system's way to get operative notes and quality data from recorded case video, and its buyer runs Epic or Oracle Health. PrecisionOS lists $199 per month for individuals, a quote for institutions and ACGME-aligned program reporting. Theator takes demo requests only. On FDA, PrecisionOS's K210344 covers inVisionOS, its planning tool, and Theator has no 510(k) record as of October 2026. Theator's evidence is five papers, most with Theator-employed co-authors, while no study shows practice on the PrecisionOS library improving operative performance. Theator names training as one of six downstream uses of its video data, alongside documentation, billing, quality analytics, safety monitoring and research.
