Maven Clinic has introduced AI-enabled population health capabilities to its maternity product, designed to identify pregnancy risks earlier, address complications including preeclampsia, and support families with babies in the NICU. The new features began rolling out this month with additional programs launching in early 2026.
Maven’s care model has demonstrated up to 27% fewer NICU stays and 15% fewer C-sections for families using the platform. By supporting families from fertility through maternity, Maven saves employers an average of $9,600 per birth, according to the company. Maven has published more than 40 peer-reviewed studies and clinical abstracts.
“Over the past decade, Maven has built one of the largest databases in the world on how to predict and mediate pregnancy risk,” said Kate Ryder, founder and CEO of Maven Clinic. “Now we’re using that knowledge to give every family the chance for a safe, supported pregnancy so no parent faces hardship from preventable complications.”
Fifteen percent of pregnancies are now considered high-risk, according to the company. Maven’s enhanced maternity program includes three new capabilities:
The platform integrates data from connected devices including blood pressure cuffs and glucose monitors with data from electronic health records to tailor care and identify early warning signs of conditions like gestational diabetes and preeclampsia. This approach aligns with 2025 American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists guidance endorsing tailored prenatal schedules combining telemedicine and home monitoring.
Maven is enhancing programs for early detection and intervention for high-risk conditions. Members at risk for preeclampsia can track health indicators like blood pressure, manage medication adherence, and receive guidance to help prevent complications.
Maven’s new NICU program provides parents with personalized discharge plans, 24/7 access to clinical experts, interventions to help babies reach developmental milestones, and follow-up support at home. About 10 to 15% of babies need NICU care, with an average admission cost of $77,000. Nearly 25% of NICU days occur after babies no longer need intensive care, according to the company. The program aims to shorten NICU stays by up to 8%, saving approximately $5,500 per stay.
“Pregnancy complications are not inevitable—they’re often predictable and preventable,” said Dr. Neel Shah, Chief Medical Officer at Maven Clinic. “By combining the power of AI with continuous, connected care, we can anticipate risks before they become emergencies.”
