Childbirth Still Kills. We Treat That as a Solvable Engineering Problem

Approximately two hundred eighty-seven thousand women die each year worldwide from complications of pregnancy and childbirth. Approximately two million babies are stillborn or die in the first week of life. The United States has the worst maternal mortality rate in the developed world, with a roughly threefold disparity between Black and white women. For young women globally, complications of pregnancy and childbirth are among the top five causes of death. The CureForge Maternal, Perinatal & Childbirth Safety Institute is the federation’s research engine for this work. Twelve specialized AI systems collaborate across pre-pregnancy risk stratification, real-time digital twins of the maternal-fetal pair, pre-eclampsia and HELLP prediction, postpartum hemorrhage risk management, sepsis-in-pregnancy management, peripartum cardiomyopathy, stillbirth prevention, labor-and-delivery decision support, neonatal resuscitation, pregnancy pharmacology, disparities and access modeling, and maternal mental health. Every protocol modification and dosing decision is reviewed by qualified obstetricians and maternal-fetal medicine specialists.

Value proposition:

• Maternal-fetal dyadic digital twins through every prenatal visit
• Pre-eclampsia, hemorrhage, sepsis, and stillbirth prediction as one engine
• Disparities and access modeled as first-class clinical variables
