Alife Health, a technology company building AI tools to advance fertility care, announced today the launch of its mobile application to help patients navigate their IVF journey from beginning to end. The Alife app is free for all iPhone users, offering easy-to-use test result tracking, medication and appointment reminders, educational information, and a timeline to prepare for next steps.

There are many challenges that patients face when being treated for infertility. On top of an already physically and emotionally onerous process, IVF patients carry the mental burden of managing their medications, appointments, insurance claims, and more.

"Beyond just creating AI software to enhance IVF outcomes on the clinical side, our team recognized the need to provide patients with better tools as well,” says Paxton Maeder-York, CEO of Alife. “We understand the stress that comes with managing the IVF process, from keeping track of loose paperwork to countless medication alarms. To alleviate this burden, we developed the Alife app - a comprehensive tool that enables patients to easily manage their IVF journey straight from their phones. By consolidating everything they need in one place, the Alife app empowers patients to stay informed and feel in control, which we hope will ultimately lead to a more positive and stress-free experience."

Key features of the Alife app include:

Track your journey

• Set reminders for appointments, medications and to-dos
• Record results, symptoms, notes and costs
• Compare cycles, past and present

Prepare for what’s next

• See what’s upcoming with your personalized journey timeline
• Learn what to expect at each step of the process
• Read educational blog articles to keep you informed

“After going through IVF multiple times myself, I can tell you that the time commitment needed to manage this process can be the equivalent of a part time job,” says Halle Tecco, women's health leader and Alife advisor. “The Alife app is the first resource for IVF patients that is truly built around the patient experience and fills gaps in the process. From pure organization to empowering patients with education on each step, the Alife app is a one-stop-shop for simplifying IVF management.”

The Alife app is currently available on iOS in the U.S. and Canada. The app can be downloaded here.
