Amra is a reproductive and mental health companion built by a doctor in Accra. Log your cycle, check in on how you feel, and understand what's worth mentioning to a doctor — honestly, privately, without judgment.
Most women carry their health questions alone: the search at 2am, the friend who "had the same thing", the visit you keep putting off because you're not sure it's serious enough. The problem is rarely only access. It's doubt.
Your period changed. Your mood changed with it. You don't know whether the two are connected, or whether either one matters.
You don't want to waste a doctor's time — or your money — on nothing. So you wait, and the question stays.
When you finally sit down in front of someone, the months blur. You leave having forgotten half of what you meant to mention.
Before we wrote a line of code, we surveyed women about their bodies, their minds, and what had kept them from care — and sat down for dozens more informal conversations, in clinics, kitchens and group chats. Their answers shaped every part of Amra.
had put off seeing a doctor because they didn't think it was serious — the single most common reason.
had wanted mental health support and never sought it. Most often because they didn't know where to go, or couldn't afford it.
had felt anxiety, low mood or mood changes tied to their cycle, pregnancy or hormones. Body and mind, together.
said the thing they want most from a health professional is a clear explanation. Confidentiality came next.
said privacy would decide whether they'd use a health app at all — closely followed by the fear of wrong medical advice.
said mental health support would be the feature that made them download — ahead of period tracking.
Taking pain and symptoms seriously by default.
A section to ask questions or share concerns anonymously.
Low cost, so every woman can afford it.
So we built Amra to explain clearly, keep your privacy, hold body and mind together — and take what you feel seriously, by default.
From two Amra surveys of women in Ghana, 2025–2026 (176 responses in total, most from Greater Accra), alongside several dozen informal conversations with women. Percentages are from the surveys, of the women who answered each question. Quotes are shared anonymously, as written.
Amra holds your reproductive and mental health together, because you live them together, and almost nothing else in your life does. It helps you notice what's really happening, recognise what deserves attention, and walk into a consulting room knowing exactly what to say.
It will never pretend to know something it doesn't. An estimate is called an estimate. Amra doesn't diagnose, and it will always tell you when a real person should be the next step.
This is the app as it is today. Three things you can do in under a minute.
Flow, pain, how it affected your day. Tap what fits. It takes less time than sending a voice note.
Mood, stress, energy, sleep — in words, not scores. Kept side by side with your cycle, never blamed on it.
Your calendar keeps both cycles, day by day. Only what you recorded — never a prediction dressed up as a fact.
Built and working now, and being tested with women in Ghana before launch.
Log simply, see your real patterns, and get clearly labelled estimates — never false certainty.
Check in with how you feel, in your own words. Body and mind, held together in one place.
Notice what matters — and what's worth mentioning to a doctor.
Clear, plain-language answers reviewed by a physician. No myths, no scare tactics.
You choose what to share. Every permission is asked for separately, and you can delete your data whenever you like.
More is on the way — including help reaching real, trusted care when you need it. We'll tell you when it's ready, not before.
Physician-led and grounded in evidence — never marketing dressed up as care.
Your health story is yours alone. We will never sell your data.
A companion beside you, without judgment, whatever you bring.
Honest answers. When we don't know, we say so.
We are building Amra so that a woman's access to understanding, and to care, doesn't depend on what's in her purse. That is the work, and we'll keep you posted on it.
One of us sat across from women in clinic, year after year, and kept hearing the same thing: "I didn't know if it was normal. I didn't know where to go." The other builds technology for a living and knew it didn't have to be this way.
So we built the companion we wished those women had — one that takes the whole of you seriously, tells you the truth, and never sells what you tell it.
A licensed physician who has practised across internal medicine, obstetrics and gynaecology, psychiatry and surgery. She leads Amra's build herself, turning what she saw in clinic into something a woman can hold in her hand. Away from it, she's behind a camera.
Holds a Master's in Computer Science and works at one of West Africa's most respected fintech companies, with a deep interest in machine learning, which she brings to Amra's technical direction. Away from her work in technology, she's a gifted singer.
We're finishing the build now and opening it to a small group of women in Ghana first. If you join, you'll use Amra before anyone else — and what you tell us will shape what every woman after you gets.
Women 18+ in Ghana for the first group. Others welcome to sign up — we'll widen it soon.
Thank you. We'll email you when the first testing group opens — and nothing else.

We'll only use your email to talk to you about Amra — never shared, never sold. Privacy Notice.
Amra is a physician-led company building women's health infrastructure for Ghana and, in time, the region. If that's a problem you want to help solve, we'd like to talk.
