Purpose and product direction
AfriHealth AI is a clinician-reviewed voice documentation and decision-support workflow for community health teams working across English, Amharic-English, and Afaan Oromoo-English conversations.
1. Product modules
Module 1: Triage
Captures reviewed audio, returns code-switched transcription, and presents a clinician-review triage summary.
Module 2: EHR Intake
Structures reviewed speech into draft documentation and coding artifacts. Vital signs require manual confirmation.
Module 3: Post-Care
Supports follow-up simulations and highlights possible escalation signals for human assessment.
2. Evidence and governance
Fixture benchmark values, AfriSwitch general-ASR results, and the 15-case clinical-review baseline are shown as separate evidence layers. The measured clinical baseline is 56.38% mean WER, 44.33% target-term recall, and six critical-term-miss cases. These results require clinician review and do not support autonomous care.
3. Privacy and safety
Provider credentials remain server-side. Recordings are reviewed before upload, private validation inputs remain outside Git, and medication information must be independently verified by a clinician. Automated medication safety checks are not implemented end to end.
