For clinicians who see mothers

What happens to her health between appointments?

Root is a conversational AI companion mothers use on ordinary days, in the space between visits. We are designing the clinician side now, and we are designing it with the people who would use it.

How do you support a patient to change her behaviour between appointments, when the appointment is the only lever you have?

Share your input with the founder, and ask anything you want to know.

What happens between appointments?

In the appointmentWhat you see
  • What she can tell you
  • A plan that makes sense
  • Her intention, genuine
Between appointmentsWhat you don’t
  • The week she actually had
  • Where the plan broke
  • That she stopped, silently

Root works on the right, and brings back only what she chooses to share.

We see it most around a new diagnosis, a long referral wait, and the postpartum drop-off. Those are our assumptions, and the most useful thing you can do on the call is tell us which are wrong.

What your patient would be using

  • A check-in most days3 to 5 minutes, at a time she picks.
  • Small actions that fit the dayOne on a hard day, several on a good one. She chooses, and the size moves with her week.
  • A way in when she has no idea where to startThe first step is small enough to be possible today, rather than a plan waiting for a better month.
  • A push toward care when it is neededRoot encourages her to book the appointment she has been putting off, and routes her back to you.
  • Other mothersA moderated community, at every stage of motherhood.
  • Clear limitsNo calorie counting, no weight targets, no diagnosis.

The ask

A 20 minute conversation

We are looking to speak with clinicians of every kind who work with mothers: what a clinical interface would need to be useful to you, and the gaps you run into supporting patients with behaviour change between appointments.

What you get back

You shape it before it is built

The design follows these conversations, not the other way round.

Early access

The clinician view, as soon as there is one to look at.

First word on the study

An outcome study is being designed for late 2026, with the clinicians in these conversations.

Who we are talking to

Through November, across the people mothers already see.

  • Family medicine
  • Obstetrics and gynaecology
  • Midwifery
  • Nursing and nurse practitioners
  • Dietetics
  • Physiotherapy, pelvic health
  • Mental health, psychology and social work
  • Lactation consultants and doulas
  • Pharmacy
  • Public health and community programs
  • Another field? Still welcome

If your work touches a mother’s health and your field is not on that list, that is a gap in our thinking rather than a reason to stay quiet. Book the call.

Root is not a clinical tool and makes no claim about outcomes. It does not diagnose, and it is not a substitute for care. An outcome study is being designed for late 2026.
