MamaCheck

Amara O. · Kenya
The problem

Amara built MamaCheck, a maternal-health assistant for community clinics with no doctor on site. A nurse enters simple symptoms and the app flags high-risk pregnancies that need urgent referral — in plain Swahili, fully offline on a basic phone.

How AI is used

A lightweight risk model fine-tuned on anonymised local data, plus an on-device Swahili language model — no internet, no cloud.

Positive impact

Piloted in 4 clinics; ~600 visits screened in one season, with faster referrals for the highest-risk cases.

Optional — builders can add their own video link to their public profile.
Visible — and reachable, through Olomoon.

Clinicians, mentors, other builders and impact investors can reach her through Olomoon. No email address, phone number or personal social link is ever published — every introduction passes through our team, and she decides whether to respond.

The Discovery Team

We are building a Discovery Team to find remarkable young AI builders building AI for positive impact, all over the world — with a special focus on under-resourced areas — and give them visibility long before the Challenge opens. All year, our team searches where young builders actually are: universities, research labs, hackathons, open-source communities and LinkedIn. When we find someone remarkable, we reach out and offer a spotlight — a light page that puts their work in front of the world, on their terms.

Every builder controls what appears
Only what you send us

Your profile is built from your own submission, and nothing else. We never add material found elsewhere. Because you write it yourself, sending the form is all the agreement we need — so send it as you want it published.

You may withdraw at any time

We remove the profile, interview, image, voice or video from channels Olomoon controls and stop using it. Copies already downloaded, cached, indexed or republished by third parties are outside our control.

Behind Discovery

Every application is reviewed before publication.

Every application is reviewed by the Olomoon team before publication. We assess its AI and technical substance, its potential for positive impact, and whether the submitted content is appropriate and safe. Olomoon may hold, request changes to, or decline an application when the materials provided, including presentation videos, do not meet these requirements. Where possible, we will explain our concern and invite the candidate to respond or revise the submission. This is not a competition and projects are not ranked.

Enter the future Olomoon Challenge

Olomoon helps people discover promising young AI builders and their projects. We do not certify candidates or projects, guarantee outcomes, or act as a recruitment or investment adviser. Any hiring, investment, partnership or other decision remains the responsibility of the parties involved.

What is public, and what never is.

Your profile shows your first name and the initial of your surname — Anna K. — never more. Discovery makes projects findable, not people's contact details. The same profile serves Discovery and the future Challenge.

Enough for anyone to understand your project and want to reach you. A demo video and project links are optional additions.
