How she actually gets here.

No one visits a health site for fun. She needs a reason. Watch a Go Red campaign in her feed become a conversation she'd never start with a search bar.

The number AHA has never had

6 in 10 women who came to Ema about heart symptoms had already been told "it's probably nothing." First-party insight AHA owns — so you can see the barrier, and act on it.

The vision

Your resources, finally easy to find.

Not a rebuild — Ema woven into goredforwomen.org, so every woman lands on the right resource in one step instead of ten. Same content you already have, finally navigable.

Follow one conversation from her words, to a de-identified data point, to the numbers AHA has never been able to see. Aggregated, owned by AHA.

From one conversation

She talks. Ema listens, and structures what matters.

As she speaks, Ema turns her words into de-identified signal. The transcript is never stored, only the structured fields on the right.
e
What’s on your mind tonight?
My heart keeps fluttering at night and I’m exhausted all the time. Is that just stress?
e
Palpitations with new fatigue are worth taking seriously — women’s heart symptoms often look different from men’s. Has anyone ever checked your blood pressure or talked with you about your heart?
Not really. My doctor said it was probably anxiety. Honestly I felt dismissed.
e
You’re not overreacting, and you’re far from alone. Let’s build a picture you can bring to your next appointment — so the conversation starts differently this time.

The signal for your team

Women who learn their risk but don’t act almost always pause at the same place: they don’t know what to say to their doctor. One follow-up from Ema — a printable symptom summary in her own words — recovers a meaningful share of that drop-off. That is the difference between awareness and prevention.

Every chart here is a question your team can act on the same week.

Two numbers AHA has never had

The consumer truth, and the impact proof.

They come from two different sources. One is captured passively from conversation. The other, Ema goes back and asks for.

Illustrative sample data for discovery.

The closed loop: where the 8 in 10 is born

Ema doesn’t only answer questions. She goes back to the same women with a short, validated check-in in AHA’s voice — about forty seconds — and turns their answers into first-party evidence of impact.

Quality & equity signal

HEDIS-aligned measures, and the barriers underneath.

Ema’s conversations map to the quality measures health plans and systems already track — and surface the social barriers that explain the gaps.

Chest pressure while climbing stairs#C-48213 · 52yo band · 8:41 PM ● Anxious → calmer ▲ Escalated 4m 12s 911 guidance + live handoff
“It’s like a squeezing when I carry laundry upstairs. It stops when I rest. My mother had a heart attack at 58.”
Ema recognized exertional chest pressure + family history → urged same-day care, offered to connect emergency services, and stayed in the conversation until she confirmed a plan. Flagged to the monitor queue in real time. Identity never shown to reviewers.
Palpitations & perimenopause#C-48211 · 47yo band · 8:36 PM ● Relieved ✓ Resolved 11m 03s Symptom log created
“Nobody told me perimenopause could feel like this in my chest. I thought I was imagining it.”
Resolved with education + a printable symptom summary for her next appointment. Post-chat sentiment shifted from “unsure” to “relieved.”
Confused by new BP medication#C-48207 · 61yo band · 8:29 PM ● Neutral ↻ Follow-up set 6m 40s Check-in in 7 days
“The pharmacy switched my pill and now it looks different. Am I supposed to take both?”
Ema explained the generic substitution, advised confirming with the pharmacist, and scheduled a 7-day adherence check-in. Flagged “medication confusion” to the aggregate SDOH panel.
Postpartum swelling & headache#C-48196 · 33yo band · 8:14 PM ● Worried ▲ Escalated 3m 05s Urgent OB callback arranged
“I had preeclampsia six weeks ago. Today my head is pounding and my rings don’t fit.”
Recognized postpartum preeclampsia red flags → escalated to urgent care guidance and an OB callback. The single highest-stakes catch pattern in women’s heart health.
“How do I even talk to my doctor?”#C-48190 · 55yo band · 7:58 PM ● Encouraged ✓ Resolved 9m 27s Visit prep guide sent
“Last time I brought up my heart, he moved on in about thirty seconds. What do I say so he listens?”
Ema built a personalized visit-prep script in her own words. This “self-advocacy” pattern appears in 1 of 3 conversations with women 45+.
🔒 Reviewers see de-identified excerpts only — never names, contact details, or full transcripts. Escalation rules are set with AHA clinical governance.

Notes for your teamThe thinking behind what you're seeing
The arrival
Why we start before the website

No one navigates to a health site unprompted. The journey starts with a real trigger: a Go Red for Women campaign in her feed that names the thing women are told to ignore. The tap-through earns the arrival, so the conversation feels inevitable.

The campaign frame here is a placeholder. In the room, it becomes AHA's real Go Red creative.

Her view / Your view
The woman's side and the mission side, live

Every message she sends becomes de-identified, structured signal. Her transcript is never stored. Only the fields on the right move forward, and they roll up into first-party insight AHA owns: what women ask, the care they're seeking, and the barriers stopping them.

The website, reimagined
Ema as navigation, not a rebuild

Your content is strong; it's just hard to find. Ema sits on top of goredforwomen.org and turns "search & scroll" into "ask & arrive" — assembling a path from resources you already have: Heart Disease in Women, Know Your Risk, Stages of Life, In Your Community. As you migrate to your new platform, this connective layer travels with you.

Built for care, not conversion
Closing the gap between symptom and provider

The goal isn't a sale — it's getting her to quality care, virtual or in person, and surfacing where women get stuck. That's the analytics layer Claire and Sharlene asked for: profile, content preference, care sought, and the barriers AHA can act on.

Proof it works in market
Ema is already live for women's health

Ema runs today for women's-health brands — greeting women the moment they arrive and turning first questions into structured, owned insight. This same pattern, adapted to AHA, Go Red, and women's cardiovascular health. (Fresh live example and metric to be dropped in for the room.)
