Mahmee is an integrated care delivery platform for maternal and infant health that provides a subscription-based service offering live support seven days a week, unlimited expert-led support groups and classes, and a unified health record for mom and baby. Since launching in 2016, Mahmee has served over 15,000 pregnant and birthing individuals and its network includes more than 750 practices and community-based organizations. The service pairs expectant mothers with seasoned nurses and care coordinators who proactively screen for health concerns, make referrals to culturally competent professionals, and assist with navigating social services. Mahmee reports patients are 10% less likely to have a C-section and 50% less likely to deliver prematurely, and it maintains partnerships with municipal health departments, hospitals, and insurers including the D.C. Department of Health and Blue Shield of California. The company emphasizes improving outcomes for Black and Indigenous birthing individuals and aims to expand access to comprehensive prenatal and postpartum care for historically underserved communities. Mahmee operates a HIPAA-secure online platform that combines peer group discussions, connections to medical providers, and trained maternity coaches who can flag medical issues. The service offers group and individual video calls (the introductory coach session is free) and subscription tiers starting at $20 up to about $200 per month for unlimited access and monitoring. Mahmee’s dashboard is designed to bridge fragmented postpartum data and enable coordination across practices and health systems. The company charges for engagement and patient monitoring services rather than offering the core community features for free. Mahmee reports more than 1,000 providers in its network. The team plans to expand engineering, clinical, and sales staff and is pursuing partnerships within the healthcare industry.
