A scan should not depend on where you were born.

Helping Every Pregnant Woman Access Early Risk Detection, Regardless of Where She Lives

Thousands of mothers and babies are lost each year because pregnancy complications are detected too late.

The Tamela Safe Pregnancy Initiative uses AI-powered obstetric assessment and handheld ultrasound technology to identify high-risk pregnancies early and connect women to the care they need before complications become life-threatening.

We don't just detect risk.
We help ensure women receive the care that can save their lives.

Too Many Mothers Are Still Dying from Preventable Complications

Across Africa, many pregnant women lack access to timely ultrasound screening and specialist maternal healthcare.

The challenge is often not the absence of treatment.

The challenge is identifying women who need help before it is too late.

As a result

  • High-risk pregnancies go undetected
  • Pregnancy complications are identified too late
  • Referrals happen after emergencies occur
  • Mothers and babies face preventable risks

75,000

mothers died in pregnancy or childbirth in Nigeria in 2023, more than in any other country, according to the WHO and UN agencies.

28.7%

of all the maternal deaths in the world happened in Nigeria alone, according to the WHO and UN agencies.

950,000

babies were stillborn across sub-Saharan Africa in 2023, half the world total, according to the UN child mortality group.
