Health technology company Ema and digital health platform MyUTI have announced a partnership to develop AI-powered resources for women experiencing urinary tract infections. The collaboration has resulted in the launch of Mya, an AI health assistant that is now operational on the MyUTI platform.
The new tool is designed to provide information about UTI care and sexual health issues, areas where women often struggle to access timely and accurate information. According to the announcement, UTIs affect millions of women annually, with many experiencing recurrent infections that disrupt daily activities.
“We are thrilled to collaborate with MyUTI in our shared mission to transform women’s health,” said Amanda Ducach, CEO and Co-founder at Ema. “By combining AI-powered insights with MyUTI’s expertise in urinary and sexual health, we are equipping women with the knowledge and tools they need to take control of their well-being.”
The AI assistant aims to help users explore testing options and access health information. The companies state that the technology offers evidence-based guidance to help women address health concerns that are sometimes dismissed by healthcare providers.
“Our collaboration with Ema represents a pivotal step in improving women’s access to credible and science-based health information,” said Megan Henken, CCO and Co-founder at MyUTI. “UTIs are often dismissed as minor ailments, yet they significantly impact the quality of life for millions. With AI-driven support, we can provide women with timely, science-based resources that empower them in their health journey.”
