Doctors outside training do the same career alone — no deanery, no supervisor, and somehow more paperwork than anyone else. medrics is the missing training-programme infrastructure.
Your documents never leave your Mac. That's the architecture, not a promise.
Log CPD, WBAs, reflections and goals one tap from the ward; get your scope of practice and appraisal report at the press of a button on your Mac. Everything saves as plain files on your own device — private, and permanently yours. When a portfolio subscription lapses, your evidence goes with it. This one can't be taken away.
A separate product, in the works. It reads the same record — alongside the free shortcuts, or on its own — and turns it into the picture nobody ever shows a locum. This is its home screen:
Your money is the first thing it finds. HMRC lets you claim up to four tax years back — exam fees, GMC and college subs, indemnity, mileage, kit. If you've never claimed, a typical locum's four years add up to around £8,400 sitting unclaimed. It isn't a discount or a bonus; it's your own money. The Portfolio system finds your figure by reading your own bank statements, on your own Mac; the premium layer drafts the claim cited line by line, and you send it from your own HMRC account. Typically £1,400–£2,800 a year, so £5,600–£11,200 across four back-years — an estimate, not a promise; the tool computes your actual figure from your own statements. One-time purchase, free for the first 50 founding users; only the drafting/AI layer is a subscription.

The Portfolio tool in the works will find your unclaimed tax and draft the claim, cited line by line.
Built for NHS locum doctors, trust-grade doctors, clinical fellows, F3s and F4s, SAS doctors — anyone building a career and a portfolio outside a formal training programme. If you have a deanery doing this for you, lucky you. If not, medrics is the structure you were never given.

Privacy isn't our policy page — it's our architecture.
Your bank statements, payslips and reflections are processed on your machine and stay there. No accounts, no cloud copies, no telemetry. Delete the folder — every trace is gone.
Any optional online service receives metadata only — counts, hours, gaps. Before anything is sent you can see the exact bytes. Honest by inspection, not by assertion.
medrics is run by a practising NHS emergency medicine doctor. Every tool exists because the job needed it, not because a product manager guessed.
