We make hypertension visible and controllable across Africa — through awareness campaigns, screening programmes, and the Ovana app. Built for the realities of African healthcare. Designed to last.
Hypertension is not a technology problem. It's a coordination problem.
The tools to control it already exist — blood pressure monitors, effective medication, simple lifestyle changes. What's missing is the infrastructure to connect people to those tools, consistently, at scale.
That infrastructure doesn't come from another app. It comes from pharmacies that already sit in every neighbourhood. From clinics that patients already trust. From institutions that already reach populations — insurers, employers, governments, foundations.
Our role is to make all of them work together.
Hypertension is invisible, unmanaged, ignored, and inconsistent. Ovana addresses all four — by helping people find their risk and giving them the tools to manage it.
Physical campaigns in workplaces, pharmacies, churches, communities, and at health events. Digital campaigns via WhatsApp and SMS in partnership with insurers, employers, and health organisations. The purpose: identify risk early, raise awareness, drive screening, and bring people into the system.
The Ovana app provides BP tracking, medication reminders, refills, lifestyle habit tracking, educational content, expert network access, pharmacy access, family accountability, alerts, and health resources. The purpose: help people stay consistent, reduce complications, and centralise their hypertension management.
To make hypertension visible and controllable for every person in Africa.
To build the infrastructure for hypertension control — and scale it globally.
Ovana is built for everyone in the chronic care journey — from the patient at home to the institution managing population health.
People living with hypertension — or at risk of it — use the Ovana app to manage their condition, build healthy habits, and stay connected to care.
Partner pharmacies join our network as BP checkpoints and supply nodes, receiving inbound patients, refill orders, and BP check visits through the platform.
Doctors join our network for health assessments, patient adherence tracking, and remote monitoring — extending their reach beyond the clinic.
Insurers partner with us to manage hypertension across their member populations — reducing claims through better consistency and earlier intervention.
Employers partner with us to run workplace wellness programmes — supporting staff health and reducing productivity loss.
NGOs and foundations partner with us to deliver public health campaigns and hypertension programmes at community scale.
Governments partner with us to address hypertension as a population health priority and reduce the national NCD burden.
We launched in Nigeria. We're expanding to more markets across Africa — bringing hypertension awareness, screening, and care to where people live and work. If you'd like to be part of it, get in touch.
Whether you're an individual, a pharmacy, a doctor, or an institution — there's a way to be part of this.
