Transforming Healthcare Delivery Across Africa
Medikal represents a paradigm shift in how African healthcare systems approach clinical decision-making, antimicrobial stewardship, and patient care coordination. Developed through a strategic partnership between ZeroX Intelligence and AMR Initiative Rwanda, this AI-powered platform addresses critical gaps in healthcare delivery while combating the growing threat of antimicrobial resistance.
Currently at 60% completion and in active seed funding, Medikal leverages advanced machine learning algorithms, natural language processing, and contextual medical intelligence to deliver diagnostic support, medication management, and patient engagement tools tailored specifically for African healthcare contexts.

AMR Combat System
WHO AWaRe integration, resistance detection, smart prescribing, AST pattern detection and early warning.
Medikal's integration of WHO AWaRe classification and real-time antimicrobial stewardship protocols positions it as a critical tool in Africa's fight against antimicrobial resistance. By providing clinicians with evidence-based prescribing guidance and resistance pattern detection, the platform aims to reduce inappropriate antibiotic use by 70% across deployment sites.
The platform's multilingual capabilities ensure that language barriers do not impede quality care delivery. With native Kinyarwanda support alongside English and French, Medikal respects cultural contexts while maintaining clinical rigor—a balance often missing in imported health technologies.
