RespiraMate

RespiraMate is a digital health brand focused on proactive respiratory care for people living with asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Its approach aims to move beyond reactive treatment by using early warnings and predictive insights to help people and their healthcare teams manage respiratory conditions. The service is designed to log inhaler use and provide reminders, supporting consistent medication routines. It also combines information from a user’s wearable, phone and surrounding air to create a personal early-warning system. With the user’s consent, adherence records and health trends can be shared with doctors, offering useful information between appointments.

RespiraMate’s vision is to advance digital respiratory care across Africa by integrating medical-grade devices and data to improve outcomes for patients, healthcare professionals and payers. Alongside its technology, the brand supports underserved communities in Kenya through donor-funded access to inhalers and education on their proper use. Its community platform also features stories from people living with asthma and invites others to share their experiences.
