Step 1: Get Started on WhatsApp
- Simple Onboarding: Message us on WhatsApp to begin your journey with Ayu. There’s no app to download or complex setup required.
- Consent-Based Communication: We only interact with you after receiving your explicit consent to use WhatsApp for storing, managing, and retrieving your health records.

Step 2: Upload Your Health Records
- Secure Document Upload: Share photos, PDFs, or other files of your medical records directly through WhatsApp.
- Personalized Interaction: Our bot will guide you in naming and tagging your documents for easy organization. For instance, it may ask:
“What should I call this document?” or
“Would you like to add tags such as 'Blood Work' or 'Routine Checkup'?”
Example Interaction:
- You: (Uploads an image of blood test results)
- Bot: “What should I call this file?”

Step 3: Organize and Store Your Records
- Secure Cloud Storage: All your documents are encrypted and securely stored in our integrated system, powered by Google Drive.
- Metadata for Easy Retrieval: We organize your records using tags and descriptions you provide, ensuring you can find them quickly whenever needed.
Example Tagging Flow:

Step 4: Receive Reminders
- Timely Notifications: Our system sends reminders to upload follow-up documents or lab results when needed.
- Customizable Preferences: You can customize the frequency and type of reminders you’d like to receive.
Example:

Step 5: Retrieve Documents Instantly
- Quick Access Anytime: Message us on WhatsApp to retrieve any document you’ve stored. Even if you can’t remember the exact name, our AI-powered search will help you find it.
- Natural Language Search: You can search using phrases like:
- “Send me my blood test from January 2025.”
- “I need the prescription from last month.”
Example Interaction:
