Ayuda Health was founded by Marsha Haynes, a health technology professional who saw the same problem from multiple directions: people managing chronic conditions were drowning in fragmented tools, and the caregivers supporting them had even fewer resources.
The typical person with type 2 diabetes and hypertension uses three to five separate apps to manage medications, blood sugar, blood pressure, diet, and appointments. None of those apps talk to each other. None of them include the family member who calls every Sunday to ask, “Did you take your pills?”
Ayuda Health was built to be the one app that replaces all of them.
Ayuda is the Spanish word for help. The name reflects the founder's commitment to serving multilingual communities, particularly the Hispanic and Latino families who carry a disproportionate caregiving burden and face higher rates of type 2 diabetes and hypertension.
The name is also a promise: this platform exists to help, not to upsell.
