Problem
Maternal perception of fetal movements is highly subjective and varies significantly between women and pregnancies, leading to anxiety for 78% of expectant mothers. Changes in fetal movements can predict complications, yet no reliable home monitoring device exists to provide objective data, leaving women without tools to support their intuition or advocate effectively for their care.
Solution
Maternitec is developing the FeMo tracker, a wearable device that provides objective, continuous monitoring of fetal movements over day and night throughout the third trimester. The system combines proprietary passive sensing hardware with advanced AI-based algorithms to deliver personalized insights into each baby's unique movement patterns. Data is processed through secure cloud infrastructure and presented through a mobile app, giving expectant mothers accurate, data-driven feedback that complements their own intuition. By empowering women with objective information, Maternitec helps them trust their instincts, ask informed questions, and confidently advocate for their care, ultimately supporting better pregnancy outcomes and experiences.

Primary customers are expectant mothers in their third trimester who want objective data about their baby's movements, as well as healthcare providers seeking to support home-based fetal wellbeing monitoring.
