Veyra

Putting data in patient's hands

The Idea origin story

My key role in the product

As the co-founder of Veyra, I'm entrusted with driving our strategic vision, steering product development, building alliances for adoption, and leading our team towards success.

Team size and key members

Our current team includes medical student Sally Nijim and web designer Haniel Ogburu-Ogbonnaya, while Morganne Ramsey and I cover various roles.

Competitors

Competitors

While my competitors include MyChart, Apple Health, Google Fit, and Heme Health among others, they mainly lack Veyra's major strengths: patient-controlled data-sharing focus, robust medical data management functionality or seamless integration with healthcare systems.
