About Ask Ada

Summary of the business

Ask Ada is an AI-powered women’s health companion that provides private, reliable, and accessible reproductive and general health information through WhatsApp.

Millions of women, especially across Africa, hesitate to ask sensitive health questions because of stigma, limited access to healthcare professionals, or concerns about privacy. AskAda offers a safe space where users can ask questions anonymously and receive evidence-informed guidance anytime.

Built with AI and medical knowledge, AskAda helps users understand symptoms, menstrual health, pregnancy, contraception, sexual health, and other common health concerns. When necessary, it encourages users to seek professional medical care and connects them with trusted healthcare providers where available.

By meeting women on a platform they already use every day, AskAda lowers barriers to accessing health information while promoting informed decision-making.

Our vision is to become Africa’s most trusted AI health companion, improving access to quality health information and supporting better health outcomes for millions of women.
