    Receive a `runId` and `status: accepted` response within \~1 second.
  </Step>

  <Step title="AI Analysis">
    Our health agents analyze the data, research relevant medical literature and clinical guidelines, and generate insights.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Webhook Delivery">
    Results are delivered to your webhook URL with HMAC signature verification.
