Your health record, in your hands.
Across much of Africa, the medical record is a paper book the patient carries. Yanga turns those pages into a structured record the patient owns, reviews, and shares with a 6-letter code.
When a patient moves between clinics, the carnet moves with them. When it is lost, soaked, or left at home, the history is gone, and treatment starts over from memory.
Yanga does not replace the carnet or the hospital system. It photographs what already exists, keeps every original page, and gives the patient one record that survives the move between clinics.
No mockups
Open a real record and judge it yourself.
Everything below is the working product. The demo record is fictional; the software reading it is not. Every field keeps its source page, its confidence, and who last reviewed it.

Fictional patient. No real health data.
Holding a patient's code?
Enter it to open the read-only record they chose to share with you.
Demo code: DEMO01
Codes are single-use and expire after a short window. If the code is already used or expired, ask the patient to generate a new one.
What you can do today
- Start preparing
Prepare for a visit
Ten minutes of guided questions become a one-page summary your clinician reads at a glance: concern, timeline, medications, and the questions you don't want to forget.
- Get an explanation
Understand a word on your record
Paste the term that worried you. Get a plain-language explanation, and the question to ask about it at your next visit.
- Clean a note
Remove personal details
Strip phone numbers, emails, and ID numbers from a note before you send it anywhere. The text never leaves your device.
Built like infrastructure
Why a clinician can trust what they see
Generated text is easy. A record a clinician will act on has to defend itself. These properties are implemented today, not planned:
- 01
- Source pages travel with the data
- Every extracted field links back to the photographed page it came from. The original is one tap away, always.
- 02
- Three review states, never collapsed
- AI-extracted, patient-reviewed, and provider-verified are visibly distinct. Nothing pretends to be more confirmed than it is.
- 03
- Confidence is shown, not hidden
- Uncertain extractions stay flagged until a human resolves them. Low confidence is information, not embarrassment.
- 04
- Sharing is read-only and patient-initiated
- Single-use codes that expire within the hour open a read-only view. The patient sees an access log of who looked and when.
- 05
- Built for unreliable networks
- Capture works offline and uploads when the connection returns. The whole product runs in English and French.
- 06
- The AI is bounded and tested
- Extraction and summaries carry provenance and pass a safety evaluation: no invented facts, no diagnoses, urgent symptoms routed to care.
Yanga is not a diagnostic device. It organizes existing records and preparation, and routes medical decisions to clinicians.
The pilot path
Starting where the paper is
Yanga is in pilot preparation in Cameroon: patient capture first, clinician trust second, clinic workflows third. No hospital integration is required on day one. The record works the way patients already move.

Clinics, ministries, funders
If you run care delivery, public health programs, or capital and want to see the pilot up close, we want to talk.
