Dawa Health Democratizing maternal & reproductive health access through ai models

Women in underserved Sub-Saharan African communities face delayed ultrasound and cervical-cancer screening, undiagnosed anaemia, and long queues, in our target market (Zambia and Zimbabwe) 5,783 primary clinics lack on-site imaging tools and trained specialists.

DawaMom solves this with an AI-powered, hardware-agnostic diagnostic platform deployable directly into any partner clinic: a point-of-care kit delivering six-sweep ultrasound (95.7% AUC), anaemia screening (87% AUC), and cervical-cancer AI screening (85% sensitivity, 86% specificity, 97% AUC), paired with a multilingual chatbot and app for patient follow-up and retention.

Our unique value proposition is DawaMom doesn’t require in-house specialists; a general clinic nurse/midwife can operate it, with AI-aided interpretation replacing the need for a resident radiologist or sonographer. It’s hardware-agnostic and integrable, so it layers onto existing clinics rather than requiring new infrastructure.
