Clinical Intelligence

We're building the medical intelligence layer that African healthcare deserves — precise, accessible, and culturally aware.

Our mission is to ensure that every patient in Africa — whether in a Lagos hospital or a rural clinic — has access to the same quality of clinical triage and decision support.

Our Story

Why PearMedica Exists

A problem too important to ignore.

The Problem

African healthcare is under-resourced

Nigeria has just 4 doctors per 10,000 people — one of the lowest ratios in the world. Patients face inconsistent triage, long wait times, and overworked clinicians who spend 40% of their time on initial assessments that could be automated.

Meanwhile, the diseases that affect Africans most — malaria, typhoid, Lassa fever, sickle cell disease — are underrepresented in global AI health tools trained primarily on Western clinical data.

Our Approach

AI built by Africans, for Africa

PearMedica is a B2B SaaS API platform that provides medical intelligence purpose-built for African diseases. We enable hospitals, HMOs, telemedicine providers, and healthcare companies to integrate intelligent symptom assessment and triage capabilities into their existing applications.

Our production-grade RAG system is trained on African clinical guidelines, validated by medical professionals, and designed with zero tolerance for false negatives on emergency conditions. Every assessment is explainable, auditable, and clinically grounded.

Platform

What We’re Building

Four pillars of clinical intelligence powering every interaction.

African Disease Intelligence

Specialised knowledge base covering 200+ conditions prevalent in Africa — malaria, typhoid, Lassa fever, sickle cell — with location-aware weighting.

Enterprise-Ready API

RESTful API with <500ms p95 response time, 99.9% uptime SLA, robust NLP for symptom extraction, and multi-tenant architecture.

Production RAG System

Advanced retrieval-augmented generation with hybrid search, HyDE, Parent Document Retrieval, and a 5-layer clinical validation pipeline.

Compliance-First Architecture

NDPA 2023 compliance roadmap with phased data localisation, AES-256 encryption at rest & in transit, and complete audit trail logging.

Values

What Drives Us

Patient-First

Every feature we build starts with the question: does this improve patient outcomes? We measure our success not in API calls, but in lives impacted.

Clinical Precision

We don't guess. Our AI is grounded in evidence-based medicine and validated against real-world Nigerian clinical data by qualified medical professionals.

Built for Africa

From malaria to sickle cell, from typhoid to Lassa fever — our knowledge base is curated for diseases that matter most across the African continent.

Trust & Transparency

Full audit trails, explainable AI reasoning, and NDPA 2023 compliance — because healthcare demands absolute accountability.
