For informed contraceptive choices across Kenya

Safe contraceptive guidance, confirmed by a health worker.

ChaguoAI helps community health workers counsel clients on WhatsApp and basic phones. WHO eligibility rules run before any recommendation. The health worker confirms the choice.

ChaguoAI supports counselling. It does not prescribe.

How we help

Three steps from the first message to a confirmed method — with a community health worker reviewing every choice.

  1. Step 1

    Reach clients where they are

    Structured intake on WhatsApp and USSD — no smartphone app required.

  2. Step 2

    Apply WHO MEC first

    Deterministic eligibility rules run before any counselling language is generated.

  3. Step 3

    Confirm with a health worker

    Community health workers review, counsel, and confirm every choice.

What ChaguoAI is — and what it is not

Decision support for community health workers: WHO MEC rules first, human confirmation always. ChaguoAI is not a prescribing system, and a health worker reviews every recommendation packet.
