Bangladeshi “SuSastho.AI” for clinically validated answers

In Bangladesh, adolescent sexual and reproductive health, rights, and mental health (SRMH) issues are some of the major challenges due to societal taboos & stigma. To address these challenges, CMED Health has developed a Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) engine called “SuSastho.AI” to make healthcare accessible at one’s fingertips.

CMED Health plans to implement this solution – which provides real-time clinically validated answers to queries on adolescent health. The AI engine SuSastho.AI is a multi-layered platform for SRMH education, screening, referral, and data analytics which can be used on the web, Android, and iOS devices.
