A chatbot for girls wondering about sex and relationships.
Girls around the world don’t have anyone to turn to for private trusted advice about sex and relationships.
Big Sis provides a private forum for girls to get answers 24/7. She delivers non-judgmental advice on emotional, social, and practical elements of sex & relationships and offers a fun & engaging conversational experience to which girls can relate.
Since 2019, Big Sis has secured over $3 million in funding to develop beyond a chatbot and transform healthcare for adolescent girls. This funding enables us to leverage machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) technologies to provide immediate and scalable answers to girls' questions in the low-resource languages they speak..
Big Sis has grown to reach over 750,000 users across Kenya, South Africa, and India, significantly enhancing their knowledge of mental health and sexual and reproductive health, and boosting their confidence in seeking services.
