Why We're Developing This Application
Maternal and neonatal health remain pressing global concerns. Despite advancements, many women and newborns continue to face preventable health risks due to inadequate access to timely and integrated care. Our application aims to bridge this gap by providing comprehensive support throughout the maternal journey.
Who It's For
Women at All Stages
From those tracking menstrual cycles to expectant mothers and postpartum women.
Healthcare Providers
Physicians and midwives seeking real-time insights into their patients’ well-being.
Healthcare Systems
Facilities aiming to enhance emergency response through integrated data sharing.
The Problem We're Solving
Despite global and domestic efforts, maternal mortality continues to claim lives disproportionately. In 2023, the U.S. maternal mortality rate stood at approximately 18.6 deaths per 100,000 live births, yet Black women were reported to experience 50.3 deaths per 100,000 live births more than three times the rate of white women (14.5) and significantly above Hispanic (12.4) and Asian (10.7) women (CDC, 2025).

This disparity represents a systemic failure, not a medical inevitability.
The first 42 days postpartum remain the highest risk period, with many deaths resulting from poor care continuity, delayed interventions, and silos between prenatal and postnatal services (CDC, 2025; CDC, 2024) Health E-Stat
Structural issues such as implicit bias, barriers to access, and lack of culturally aligned services further undermine outcomes for African American mothers—even when controlling for socioeconomic or educational factors (CDC, 2025; AP, 2025)
Key Statistics
Maternal Mortality: In 2023, approximately 260,000 women died from pregnancy or childbirth-related causes, equating to one death every two minutes .
Neonatal Mortality: Globally, 2.3 million newborns died within the first month of life in 2023, highlighting the vulnerability of this period .
Disparities: Women in low-income countries face a significantly higher risk of maternal death compared to those in high-income countries .
Preeclampsia: The Silent Threat We Must Address
Overview & Global Impact
Preeclampsia affects approximately 2–8% of pregnancies worldwide, representing a critical hypertensive disorder that contributes to ~14% of maternal deaths and 10–25% of perinatal mortality globally. In 2020 alone, hypertensive pregnancy disorders were linked to nearly 50,000 maternal deaths and around 500,000 fetal deaths.
Health Risks & Long-Term Consequences
Preeclampsia is a multi system condition triggered by abnormal placental blood vessel development, causing widespread inflammation and organ damage (e.g., kidney, liver, neurological systems). It significantly elevates risk of eclampsia, HELLP syndrome, stroke, cardiac dysfunction, and long-term cardiovascular disease in both mother and child.
Disparities in Women of Color
African American mothers in the U.S. face up to 60% higher incidence of preeclampsia compared to white women, and have up to six times greater risk of severe complications like eclampsia and stroke—even when controlling for socioeconomic status and education. Structural inequities exacerbate delayed care and preventable outcomes.
Why It Goes Undiagnosed
• Sparse clinical touchpoints: Preeclampsia often develops between prenatal visits and beyond delivery; standard screenings can miss early-onset or postpartum cases.
• Symptom ambiguity: Mild hypertension and swelling are often normalized, leading to late detection. Conditions like HELLP syndrome can be misdiagnosed or undetected without lab screening.
• Lack of continuous monitoring: Disconnected care systems and inadequate follow-up reduce opportunities to catch emerging symptoms.
How Maternal Network Addresses the Gap
Our Maternal is AI-enhanced with predictive monitoring flags early warning signs such as elevated blood pressure, vision changes, swelling, or headaches; using NLP and LLM to interpret journal entries and correlate them with biometric data. This enables real-time alerts to the patient’s care team and fosters proactive clinical intervention, reducing the risk of severe outcomes.

Our Mission
The story, values, and purpose behind the brand
Despite progress, societies are still failing women, most acutely in poor countries and among the poorest women in all settings. Gender-based discrimination leads to economic, social and health disadvantages for women, affecting their own and their families’ well-being in complex ways throughout the life course and into the next generation. Gender equality is vital to health and to development.
