Araia is a baby tracker built for the 3am version of you — one arm holding a baby, the other tapping a screen. Log feeds, nappies, sleep, solids and medicine in a tap, follow vaccination schedules dose by dose, and ask an AI companion that actually knows your baby's history before it answers. TRACK IT IN A TAP • Feeds, diapers, sleep, solids, medicines and symptoms — logged in seconds • Live feed and sleep timers that run right on your lock screen • Log hands-free by asking Siri, or in one tap from a home screen widget • Today's counts, always visible, no digging through screens SMART CUES • Get personalized recommendations of when baby might be hungry or sleepy based on their past data. • Reminders to notify you as soon as its time to feed your baby or put them to sleep ASK ARAIA ANYTHING A warm, calm newborn-care companion that already has the context — your baby's age, growth curve, recent readings and your own notes — so you get a specific answer instead of a search results page. It reads the reports you upload, notices trends before you do, and says plainly when something belongs with a doctor instead. BUILT FOR BOTH PARENTS Invite a co-parent or any caregiver by email. One of you logs a feed, the other sees it instantly. Remove access any time. ACHIEVE YOUR GOALS Set goals like potty training, regulating sleep schedule, sleep training, introducing solids, increasing tummy time, etc. And get personalized plans to achieve these goals effectively. VACCINES, DOSE BY DOSE The full IAP immunisation schedule, laid out for your baby's own birth date — not the US CDC chart most apps default to. See what's due, what's coming up, and what slipped, then mark it done and attach the record from the clinic. GROWTH & HEALTH READINGS Weight, height, head circumference and every lab value on one timeline. Upload a photo or PDF of a prescription, lab report or doctor's note, and Araia reads it — pulling the numbers onto your chart or a prescription into a med schedule. ANALYTICS THAT SPOT THE TREND Feeds, sleep, diapers and solids compared week over week, with the hourly rhythm and day-versus-night split behind each one. Growth charts, vaccine status and your logging streak, all in one tab. JOURNAL, CALENDAR & MILESTONES A month at a glance — what you logged, what's scheduled, what's still ahead — plus CDC and WHO developmental milestones and a few things worth trying at exactly this age. DOCTORS & APPOINTMENTS Find paediatricians nearby, save their details, book visits and get reminded before they're due. LISTS THAT FILL THEMSELVES Shopping, stage-based one-time buys and questions for the doctor, added automatically from your notes, logged symptoms and out-of-range readings — each one linked back to why it's there. MEMORIES & WEEKLY REELS Photos and videos with the date, the age and the story attached. Each week, Araia suggests a short shot list based on what's been going on lately — walk through the prompts and it cuts a share-ready video for you. MAKE SENSE OF THE CRYING Hold your phone up for a few seconds and get a first read on whether it sounds like hunger or discomfort. Correct it when you know better, and it keeps learning your baby's own cries. STRAIGHT WITH YOU • Your baby's record is yours — never sold, never used for ads, never shared with anyone you haven't invited • Data stored in India, and never used to train AI models • Export your metrics, vaccination record and full journal timeline to Excel whenever you want • Free to start — tracking, the journal, vaccines and growth charts aren't behind a paywall Araia is an AI assistant, not a doctor. It's built to help you notice patterns and stay organised — always confirm anything about your baby's health with your paediatrician. Built by parents, for the nights when you need something to just work.
