3 -== (a) The problem being addressed ==
4 -
5 -Many health problems start quietly:
6 -
7 -* A symptom appears “once in a while”
8 -* People forget when it started, how often it happens, what triggers it
9 -* When a doctor asks, “How long has this been happening?” the answer is often guesswork
10 -
11 -This makes it harder to:
12 -
13 -* Detect early sickness
14 -* Understand patterns and triggers
15 -* Connect symptoms with lab tests and medical history
16 -* Make accurate treatment decisions quickly
17 -
18 -== (b) How Amicus solves it ==

20 -=== Track symptoms in seconds (WhatsApp-first) ===
21 -
22 -You can log symptoms anytime through WhatsApp:
23 -
24 -* what you felt
25 -* severity
26 -* time/date
27 -* any triggers (food, stress, activity, medication)
28 -
29 -=== Pattern detection and early warning ===
30 -
31 -Over time, Amicus helps you see:
32 -
33 -* repeated symptoms
34 -* worsening trends
35 -* correlations (e.g., symptoms and certain meals, periods, medication changes)
36 -
37 -=== Doctor collaboration (with consent) ===
38 -
39 -If your doctor requests access:
40 -
41 -* you can grant it
42 -* the doctor sees structured symptom history, not scattered messages
43 -* (((
44 -your symptoms can be correlated with:
45 -
46 -* medical records
47 -* lab results
48 -* prescriptions
49 -* previous diagnoses
50 -)))
51 -
52 -This helps you and your doctor detect patterns early — before risks become severe.

54 -== (c) Value proposition (cost, convenience, collaboration, Ubuntu) ==
55 -
56 -=== Cost ===
57 -
58 -* Early detection can reduce expensive emergency visits and complications
59 -* Better monitoring reduces trial-and-error care
60 -
61 -=== Convenience ===

64 -* Easy summaries for clinic visits
65 -
66 -=== Collaboration ===

74 -* Encourages shared responsibility in care without exposing private data unnecessarily.
