Our daughter was born at 28 weeks, and for a long time her care lived in a carry bag of papers and our tired heads.
siya is the quiet companion we wished we'd had, on WhatsApp. It holds your child's whole story, gets you ready for every doctor, and helps the home program actually happen, so more of the day is left for your child.
siya keeps the record. It doesn't diagnose or give medical advice.
When the next doctor asks for the history, you hand them one page instead of a folder.
Every new door
One page instead of a folder
In our daughter's first nineteen months we sat in 19 clinics. At every new door we told her story from the start, and every time something got left out.
Visit briefs
Before each visit, a one-page brief:
Every line points back to the record it came from.
What siya does for you
Start with the one that sounds like your week.
With siya
Send a photo of a prescription, report or therapy note on WhatsApp. siya files it by its date, so the next time a doctor asks when something started, the answer is already there.
Before each visit, a one-page brief: what's changed, what you wanted to ask, what's still waiting. Every line points back to the record it came from.
All your child's doctors and therapists in one place, with their numbers and the next visit. After a visit, type a few lines and siya turns them into to-dos.
Brief for neurology · Mira11 Oct
Each of you answers the same milestone questions on your own, and siya shows where you agree and where you see it differently. Therapy videos, filmed from the same angle, sit side by side a month apart, so you can see the change that's hard to notice day to day.
Check-ins · MiraOctober
4 of 4 moved since August. Hard to see from one week to the next.
A circle of parents who understand without needing it explained, grouped by condition and city. Find a physio, OT or speech therapist near you. Bring in grandparents or a nanny, so everyone who shares the care sees the same record.
Small WhatsApp groups of parents, grouped by condition and city.
A sample family, Mira's.
Home program
An hour with the therapist, then the rest of the week at home. siya turns the plan into today, and keeps count of how it went.
Your child's therapist sends the home program through siya. You choose what they can see.
The therapist's plan becomes three things to do today, sent to you on WhatsApp.
How it went, so the next session starts from what actually happened at home. The therapist sees how practice went during the week.
Evening check · How did today go?
Saved. The next session starts from here.
Supported sitting · then and nowSame angle
A sample day. Tap Done, or move a step to tomorrow.
On WhatsApp
siya files it by its date, so the next time a doctor asks when something started, the answer is already there.
Milestone check-ins
One of you sees your child at bath time, the other at the 7 am exercises. You'll notice different things, and neither of you is wrong. It helps to talk about it at home, before the doctor asks.
The same questions about sitting, reaching, seeing, sounds and feeding, on your own phone. Grandparents too, if you invite them.
Answers stay hidden until you've given yours, so nobody nudges anybody.
Where you agree, and where you don't, side by side. It never decides who's right. The differences go into the next doctor's brief.
Sits unsupported
Nobody sees the others first
Getting started
We're letting families in a few at a time, and we read every note ourselves. We'll email you when there's a place.
Photos of prescriptions, discharge summaries, EEG reports, a folder from Drive. Any order works, and messy is fine. One report is enough for the first day.
siya files each one by its date. When the next doctor asks for the history, you hand them one page instead of a folder.
Our promises to you
siya keeps the record. It doesn't diagnose or give medical advice. Conditions are written the way your doctors wrote them.
Your child's record belongs to your family, not to us. Download all of it, or delete all of it, any time from Account.
Only the family members you add can see the record. Our advisors never see a family's record.
No ads, ever. No therapist or clinic can pay to be shown first. If we recommend someone, it's because parents did.
The app runs on a server in Mumbai. Read the privacy policy.
Why we built it
In our daughter's first nineteen months we sat in 19 clinics. At every new door we told her story from the start, and every time something got left out.
We also watched her follow a small light with her eyes for the very first time.
siya is built for both of those days.
Waitlist
We're opening slowly, a few families at a time, starting in Delhi NCR. Tell us a little about your child and we'll write when there's a place for you. We read every one.
For therapists and centres
You know which families find the home program hardest between sessions. With siya you send it home, and see how practice went during the week, before the family walks back in. If you'd like to use it with your families, write to us.
