Sukari Care
DIGITAL MIDDLEWARE FOR DIABETES CARE IN AFRICA

Empowering Diabetes Patients & Doctors Across Africa.

Sukari Care transforms affordable local strip glucometers into intelligent monitoring devices. We correlate glucose with meals and medication, prevent acute hypoglycemia crises through family alerts, and connect patients with clinicians across East Africa.

The Patient & Doctor Journey

How Sukari Care Works in 4 Simple Steps

Transforming a standard daily finger-prick test into a fully connected, continuous safety loop.

Cleaning finger and blood extraction Step 01 Fingertip Prep

Clean & Extract Droplet

Clean the fingertip area with water or an alcohol swab. Use a sterile lancet on the side of the fingertip to produce a small blood droplet with minimal discomfort.

Using glucometer to read glucose level Step 02 5-Second Test

Apply to Glucometer

Insert a test strip into your One Call Plus, Accu-Chek, or supported meter. Touch the droplet to the strip edge for an instant 5-second clinical reading.

Capturing glucometer reading with mobile smartphone Step 03 Camera / BT / Voice

Capture & Correlate

Point your phone camera to auto-scan the screen, sync via Bluetooth, or tap to enter. Tag meal intervals (Fasting, 2h post-meal), medicine taken, or speak a voice note.

Doctor telemedicine remote monitoring portal Step 04 Family & Clinician

Protection & Triage

Receive instant Green/Blue/Red target feedback. Normal readings celebrate your streak; acute lows trigger emergency SMS alerts to loved ones while doctors monitor on /docview.

Addressing The Regional Gap

Solving Diabetes Management in Emerging Markets

The Challenge

  • Continuous monitors are unaffordable: Imported continuous glucose monitors cost $150–$250/month, inaccessible for most African families.
  • Isolated glucose logs: Patients record numbers in paper booklets without correlating with local meals (Ugali, Chapati, Rice) or drug timing.
  • Hypoglycemia risk: Sudden low blood sugar is life-threatening within hours, with loved ones having zero remote awareness.

The Sukari Care Solution

  • Software-first layer on existing hardware: Uses camera OCR, Bluetooth, and voice logging to turn standard $15 strip glucometers into connected tools.
  • MARD accuracy validation: Evaluates meters against clinical accuracy standards (e.g. One Call Plus at 7.9% MARD).
  • Caregiver & doctor connectivity: Instant emergency notifications for loved ones and asynchronous cohort monitoring for clinicians.
