HealOSPatientThe record stays behind
Visit a different hospital, get referred, or travel, and your history does not come with you. The next clinician starts from zero.
For investors
Your health history shouldn't stay behind when you leave the building.
HealOS is not another hospital EMR. It is the record a patient carries with them — built once, added to by every facility they visit, readable anywhere they go next.

The problem
Fragmentation, not a missing feature
Nigeria has 40,017 functional hospitals and clinics. Every one of them can digitise its own records perfectly and the core problem still exists: nothing connects them when a patient moves between them.
Every facility is its own island
Even the best hospital EMRs on the continent digitise one building at a time. The chart is safe — but it is trapped where it was created.
Patients pay for the gap
Repeated tests, missed allergies, medication histories nobody can produce in an emergency — the cost of fragmentation lands on the patient.
The solution
Not just another EMR
Most hospital software — including the category leader on this continent — digitises one facility at a time. HealOS anchors the record to the patient instead, so it is already complete wherever they show up next.
The record belongs to the patient
Not to one hospital’s server. Every HealOS-enabled facility a patient visits reads and adds to the same timeline, with the patient in control of who sees what.
It travels before the patient does
Referral, emergency, second opinion, relocation — the history arrives at the next facility already complete, not re-typed at a front desk.
Gets more valuable per facility, not per feature
Each hospital that joins makes every other hospital’s view of a shared patient more complete. That is a network, not a seat license.
Market & why now
A large, underdigitised, fast-moving market
Africa's digital health spend is growing at over 20% a year and Nigerian startup funding hit $959M in 2025 — up 72% on the year before. Health identity digitisation is already a stated government priority.
| Layer | Definition | Size |
|---|---|---|
| TAM | Africa digital health market | $5.6B (2025) → $7.6B by 2029 |
| SAM | Nigeria, private + higher-acuity facilities | 10,655 private facilities; 4,768 secondary + 203 tertiary |
| SOM | First 24 months, pilot pricing | 50 hospitals × illustrative $500–$1,500/mo, validated in pilot |
Competitive landscape
The category leader still stops at the hospital door
Helium Health has raised over $41M and serves 7,000+ clinicians across 7 countries — proof the category is real. It is a hospital operations tool. The record it produces still belongs to that one hospital.
| Typical hospital EMR | HealOS | |
|---|---|---|
| Where the record lives | Inside one hospital’s system | With the patient, contributed to by every facility |
| What happens on referral | History re-collected by hand | History already there on arrival |
| Patient-facing app | Rarely, or bolted on | Native — record, video visits, wallet, emergency routing |
| Value as more hospitals join | Each install is separate | Every join makes shared patients’ records more complete |
Team & business model
Built by people who ship, priced the way hospitals already buy
Per-hospital SaaS subscription — the procurement model hospital administrators already understand, no new billing behaviour to teach.
Joe-Etubi Great Attai
BSc Computer Science, Federal University Lokoja. 8+ years building large systems — built and runs HealOS's backend, patient app and infrastructure end to end.
Steven Iyadi
PharmD candidate, University of Abuja. Brings the clinical and pharmacy workflow grounding that keeps HealOS built around how care actually happens.
The ask
$250K pre-seed to turn a working product into paying hospitals
A working platform de-risks this round already. The capital is entirely for go-to-market: proving hospitals will pay, and proving the record gets more valuable as each one joins.
| Use of funds | Share | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Pilot sales & onboarding | 55% | Land and onboard the first 5–10 hospitals directly |
| Engineering & reliability | 30% | Harden the platform already live in production for multi-facility load |
| Founder runway | 15% | Keep the team focused on hospitals, not fundraising, for 12 months |
