Sickle Cell Disease is already hard enough. Managing the information shouldn't be.
Hemo is an app for people with Sickle Cell Disease to track pain, hydration, mood, sleep, and medications, spot patterns over time, and prepare for every appointment. It exists because people living with SCD deserve tools designed for real life — not tools built for ideal conditions and adapted after the fact.
OUR MISSION
Our mission is to make Sickle Cell care easier every day by giving patients a simple, low-effort way to track what matters, so they can build meaningful health history that supports caregivers and improves clinic conversations.
The problems we set out to solve
Before building anything, we listened. These are the patterns that came up again and again.
Appointments feel like starting from scratch
Most people walk into clinic visits relying on memory. Weeks of symptoms, triggers, and patterns get compressed into a few rushed sentences — and the details that matter most often get left out.
Patterns are invisible without consistent data
SCD symptoms fluctuate. A single bad day looks different from a trend of bad days. Without a record, it's nearly impossible to tell whether things are improving, worsening, or just varying.
Care details live in too many places
Medications, emergency contacts, crisis plans, appointments — they end up scattered across notes apps, texts, and memory. When something urgent happens, scrambling for that information costs time you don't have.
Why this app exists
Hemo was built because the tools available to people with Sickle Cell Disease weren't built with them in mind. Generic symptom trackers, note apps, and spreadsheets all require too much effort to maintain, and they don't speak the language of SCD care.
We wanted to build something that patients would actually use on their worst days — not just their best ones. Something that turns consistent, low-effort logging into the kind of long-term health context that changes clinic conversations.
Hemo is for patients first, caregivers second, and clinicians third. That order is deliberate. The app only works if the person living with SCD finds value in it daily. Everything else is downstream from that.
Who we're building for
Hemo is built for patients first. Everything else follows from that.
Patients
A two-minute daily log builds a health record you actually own. Walk into every appointment with 90 days of patterns, not just what you can recall on the spot. Hemo helps you say exactly what your care team needs to hear.
Caregivers
Supporting someone with SCD means staying on top of medications, contacts, and warning signs — often without a clear picture of what's changing. Hemo keeps the important details in one place and makes it easier to help without overstepping.
Clinicians
Structured symptom logs change the quality of a clinic visit. Instead of reconstructing history from memory, patients arrive with timestamped data across pain, mood, hydration, sleep, and triggers — giving you clearer context in less time.
