The Story Behind Tamela

Tamela was founded from a deeply personal understanding of the impact of pregnancy complications.

Our mission is driven by a belief that no woman should lose her life, or her child, because a complication was not detected early enough.

We believe technology can help close the gap between diagnosis and care.

And we believe every mother deserves the opportunity for a safe pregnancy.
