The silent killer

0 in 0 Kenyan adults have hypertension. Most don't know it.

High blood pressure is called the silent killer for a reason. It shows no symptoms until it causes a stroke, a heart attack, kidney failure. For millions living far from clinics, the gap between a reading on a machine and a decision about your health is where lives are lost.

My grandmother had a stroke we should have caught. The signs were in her readings — we just had no way to see them. BP Monitor is what I wish she'd had.

"I was checking my BP for years without understanding the numbers. Now I see my evening readings spike after ugali — and I changed my dinner. My average dropped in three weeks."

"I monitor 38 patients across three counties. Before this, I'd see them every six months and pray. Now I get an alert the day a trend turns bad — and I call them before it's an emergency."

FAQ

Honest answers.

No. BP Monitor works offline — record readings any time and they sync once you're connected. Most insights are computed on your phone, so a slow network won't slow you down.

Our analysis is decision support, not diagnosis. We flag uncertainty when we see it, and we always recommend consulting a clinician for major changes. The model has been validated against months of real BP data.

Yes. Your data is encrypted in transit and at rest, stored in your account only, and never sold. You can export or delete everything at any time.

No. BP Monitor helps you and your doctor make better decisions together. It doesn't prescribe medication or replace a clinical visit — but it can make those visits more useful.

Yes. The app works anywhere with a phone. Some features (like Red Cross integration) are Kenya-specific, but the core tracking and analysis works globally.

Free to start. No credit card required. Premium features may come later, but core BP tracking and insights will always remain free.
