Fatty liver disease is the most common chronic liver condition worldwide — and remains largely invisible. Liver & Heart builds the first scalable digital orientation infrastructure for those affected and the ecosystem that supports them.

The platform

A journey-driven, multi-stakeholder AI platform

One ecosystem connects patients, professionals, organisations and partners across a shared metabolic health journey.

  • Members & patients

    Guided, empowered and supported through a structured health journey.

  • Professionals

    Better insights, better outcomes and more contextual patient preparation.

  • Organisations

    Smarter care delivery and coordination across teams, places and programmes.

  • Partners

    Pilots, screening pathways and aggregated, privacy-safe programme insights.

One shared ecosystem, different interfaces, aligned incentives.

Flagship journey

    Start moment

    A short check-in to understand what triggered the concern and what matters now.

  2. 2

    Health profile

    Capture labs, history, medications, lifestyle and relevant metabolic information.

  3. 3

    Risk & orientation

    Understand relevant risk factors, screening options and the next steps to discuss.

  4. 4

    Diagnostics & trials

    Navigate to information about tests, scans, research and trial sites.

  5. 5

    Care team

    Find relevant professionals and care locations based on need and context.

  6. 6

    Health goals

    Turn the journey into achievable next steps, monitoring and follow-up.

Structured data layer: labs, habits, outcomes, adherence and journey drop-off points.

Privacy-first: consented, auditable and partner-ready by design.

Roadmap — mobile companion

Health happens between appointments

The mobile companion captures the daily signals that decide whether a journey becomes action.

The journey is the structure. The companion turns it into daily momentum.

  • Daily next step

    The right action at the right moment, drawn from the journey.

  • Check-ins & signals

    Symptoms, habits and measurements tracked over time.

  • Connected health data

    Apple Health and Health Connect integration for context.

  • Contextual AI

    Suggestions and answers grounded in the user’s journey — not a generic chatbot.

  • Appointment-ready passport

    A clear summary to bring to the next consultation.
