Jordan Monroe, the company's co-founder and CIO, said, "Because of the intervals between OB/GYN checkups, many mothers worry more about the condition of their unborn child than they should. Our mission is to be a 'Piece of Mind for Parents,' and we wanted to address this concern by continuously capturing data on the condition of the fetus and connecting it to the mother's smartphone to give her a clear picture of the condition. He said.

When asked about breech births, one of the most common fetal condition concerns, he said, "Unfortunately, we don't know the position of the fetus with our current application. But we understand that there is a demand for it. He added. This is a product that we hope will be updated even more in the future.
