Why now
The numbers we cannot keep accepting.
Maternal mortality in the United States is rising while it falls in nearly every comparable country. The gap is widest for Black, Hispanic, and rural patients. The gaps are concrete, and so are the fixes.

These are the gaps Materna Health Solutions is built around: continuity that does not collapse at handoffs, screening that catches what is treatable, and a chart that travels with the patient instead of waiting at one clinic's fax machine.
Three doors. One platform.
Materna works for everyone in the room.
The patient, the clinician, and the payer all need different things from a maternal-care platform. Most platforms pick one and hope. We built for all three from day one.
For patients
Free, voice-first, fully bilingual.
- Free to use, on any phone
- Spanish and English, co-equal, by design
- Voice on every form, mic on every page
- 24/7 nurse line, real human, no chatbot
- Cross-border record export for delivery in Mexico
For clinicians
AI Scribe and risk panel that actually save time.
- Voice-driven SOAP note in real time
- Hourly risk computations on your panel
- Pre-credentialed specialist network
- In-app referrals with chart context attached
- EHR write-back via FHIR R4
For payers and ACOs
HEDIS, equity, and ED diversion in one dashboard.
- HEDIS PPC, PND, PPD reportable views
- Equity stratification by language, race, geography
- PMPM and ED-diversion economics
- Closed-loop SDOH tracking, NCQA-friendly
- API-level integration with claims and care management
The platform
Three pillars. One continuous record.
Materna is a single longitudinal record stitched together by three working layers.
01 / Provider
AI Scribe
A voice agent quietly listens to provider visits, captures structured vitals and symptoms, drafts the SOAP note, and surfaces safety patterns in real time.
02 / Patient
Mommy Passport
A patient PWA in fully equal English and Spanish. Every form has a mic. Pregnancy → birth → postpartum → child to age 18, with a cross-border export.
03 / System
Predictive Safety Net
Algorithms watch for preeclampsia, preterm birth, gestational diabetes, postpartum depression, and growth concerns. Alerts route to the assigned provider with context.
What we listen for
Plain words that change the trajectory.
These are the kinds of things patients say. The platform is built so that what she says shows up where it matters, in the language she said it in, with the right person reaching out fast.
"Mi cabeza me duele mucho."
A severe headache plus vision changes is preeclampsia until proven otherwise.
"He is not letting me come to my appointment."
Coercion is a clinical concern. We have a private path to a social worker.
"I am crossing the border to deliver."
Your record crosses with you. FHIR R4 bundle, consent-gated, both providers see the chart.
Phrases above are illustrative of the kinds of statements the platform listens for, not patient quotes.
From the founders
Why we are building Materna Health Solutions.
A note from a clinician who has practiced in this corridor for forty years, written for the patients, the providers, and the partners who are choosing where to put their trust.
I was born in Yuma County. I have practiced obstetrics on this border for longer than most of the platforms claiming to fix maternal care have existed. I have caught babies on both sides of the line. I have read records that did not follow the patient. I have watched continuity collapse at every handoff.
Materna Health Solutions exists because the people who carry pregnancies in this corridor deserve a chart that travels with them, in the language they think and dream in, with a clinician who can answer in under a minute, and a care coordinator who can close a gap before it becomes a crisis.
We are early. We are building this with patients, with bilingual clinicians, and with health systems whose names belong to them, not to a marketing page. When we make claims, those claims will be backed by data we can show you. Until then, what you see here is the design intent and the architecture, not a count of lives held.

First launch
Built for the borders that other platforms forget.
Calexico/Mexicali. San Diego/Tijuana. El Paso/Ciudad Juárez. McAllen/Reynosa. The places where pregnancies cross national lines and continuity collapses. We start there, by design.
Voice-first
She speaks. Materna listens, calmly, in her language.
Tap the mic on any form and speak naturally. Materna parses what she said, shows it back to her, and waits for her to confirm before saving. Or she can ask the floating coral companion anything: "schedule a reminder for my prenatal vitamins", and it's done.
Inline voice input
Tap the mic on any form. The AI parses values, you confirm before saving.
