What You Should Know: 

– Willow, a FemTech company known for its innovative breast pumps, has launched a groundbreaking new feature in its app: Ema, a conversational AI tool designed to provide personalized support and guidance to mothers throughout their postpartum journey.

– With the launch of Ema, Willow becomes the first breast pump company to integrate conversational AI into its app experience. This innovation demonstrates Willow’s commitment to leveraging technology to improve maternal health and support mothers throughout their postpartum journey.

Addressing the Need for Maternal Support

New mothers often face a range of challenges, from breastfeeding and postpartum recovery to managing their mental health. Willow recognizes this need and has partnered with Ema to offer accessible and reliable support directly through its app.

AI-Powered Personalized Guidance

Ema is a HIPAA-secure conversational AI that provides mothers with:

  • Curated and validated information: Unlike generic search engines or AI platforms, Ema draws from a comprehensive database of expert-backed content to offer trustworthy guidance on a wide range of maternal health topics.
  • Personalized support: Ema tailors its responses to each mother’s individual needs and circumstances, offering relevant information and support.
  • Empathetic interaction: Designed to foster supportive conversations, Ema’s empathetic approach makes mothers feel heard and understood.

Availability

Mothers can access Ema through the Learn and Services tabs in the Willow app, available for download on the App Store and Google Play store. This innovative tool provides convenient and reliable support to mothers, empowering them to navigate the challenges of early parenthood with confidence.

“We are thrilled to integrate our conversational AI platform into the Willow App and leverage the power of advanced technology to meet women where they are with the information they need. Ema and Willow have a shared mission to make lasting improvements in women’s health and we built a one-of-a-kind solution that addresses the unique challenges mothers face regularly. Our partnership represents a critical advancement for today’s mothers and demonstrates how responsible AI can improve the maternal care experience,” said Amanda Ducach, Founder of Ema.
