MATERA: AI-Powered Clinical Triage for Maternal Hypertension | AIM

MATERA by AIM is a six-agent AI platform on IBMwatsonx Orchestrate that detects and escalates maternal hypertension riskacross the third trimester and postpartum window - in under 25 seconds.

MATERA: The AI Safety Net for Maternal Hypertension

MATERAis AIM’s AI-powered clinical triage platform designed to detect and act onmaternal hypertension risk across the two most dangerous and underservedwindows: the third trimester and the postpartum period. Powered by sixspecialized AI agents on IBM watsonx Orchestrate, MATERA fuses blood pressurereadings, patient symptoms, clinical history, and gestational stage into asingle, transparent risk verdict — in under 25 seconds. The result is fasterescalation, fewer preventable deaths, and a clinical safety net that works evenwhen a clinician isn’t in the room.

Proven, Preventable Impact

80% of maternal hypertension deaths areclassified as preventable by the CDC. MATERA is engineered specifically toclose that gap, at scale.

Designed for Clinical Procurement from Day One

MATERA is not a consumer wellness app - it is a clinical-grade platform built to meet the procurement standards of hospitals, health systems, and payers. Regulatory compliance and AI governance are not a later phase; they are baked into the architecture from the first line of code.
Hacking

FDA SaMD Class II (510(k))

MATERA isarchitected for submission as a Class II Software as a Medical Device, with apredicate device cohort already identified for the 510(k) pathway.

System Task

Health Canada SaMD Class II (MDR)

ParallelU.S. and Canadian regulatory pathways are built into the roadmap, enablingdual-market entry without duplication of compliance effort.

Data Integration

HIPAA & PIPEDA Compliant

End-to-end encryption, signed Business Associate Agreements with all subprocessors, and regional data residency are standard  not optional add-ons.

Financial Analytics

Continuous AI Governance via watsonx.governance

Model lineage, drift detection, and biasmonitoring run continuously through IBM watsonx.governance, keeping MATERAaudit-ready by default not just at submission time

BUILT ON INDUSTRY-LEADING PLATFORMS

Seamless Integrations

MATERA is built on and integrates with the clinical and enterprise platforms your organization already uses. From IBM watsonx Orchestrate and IBM Granite models to LinuxForHealth FHIR, Microsoft Teams, and Twilio, MATERA connects into your existing infrastructure without custom middleware - so deployment is fast and every action is traceable.

Six AI Agents. One Transparent Risk Verdict.

MATERA’s clinical intelligence comes from six purpose-built AI agents, each targeting a specific failure point in today’s maternal care pathway. Coordinated by a central Supervisor on IBM watsonx Orchestrate, they work in parallel to analyze every signal, apply the right clinical standard, escalate with precision, and communicate clearly  all within a single, auditable platform.

Agent

Role

What It Does

Signal Intake

Normalizer / Enricher

Ingests BP readings, symptom SMS, EHR history, and gestational age from four parallel streams. Deduplicates, normalizes, and enriches every signal with patient context before analysis begins.

Risk & Surveillance

Watcher / Detector

Evaluates every blood pressure reading against the patient’s individual baseline and ACOG thresholds — including a postpartum time-window filter that auto-elevates risk during the critical days 0–14 window.

Symptom Triage

Language Interpreter

Uses natural language understanding to parse patient-submitted symptom reports — headache, vision changes, epigastric pain — and extracts structured clinical entities that flag preeclampsia warning signs.

Gestational Context

Clinical Rule Engine

Applies the correct ACOG clinical threshold based on gestational stage — differentiating third-trimester risk from postpartum risk, so no presentation is measured against the wrong standard.

Clinical Escalation

Pager / Action Taker

Pages the on-call OB directly via Microsoft Teams within seconds of a high-severity verdict, and automatically books a telehealth appointment — closing the 72+ hour hand-off gap.

Care Navigator

Communicator

Sends the patient a plain-language SMS immediately after escalation: what happened, what to do right now, who will call and when, and when to go to Labor & Delivery if symptoms worsen.
