Know if you've contracted a STI in 60 seconds.
STIA is an AI-powered screening tool for sexually transmitted infections that uses a Bayesian network to analyze your answers to a series of questions. Based on your responses, and so long as they're honest, STIA will provide an assessment of the STI that you are most likely to have contracted, along with a detailed description of the likely condition and an explanation of how to handle it. The Bayesian network used by STIA allows for a probabilistic assessment of the likelihood of infection, taking into account all relevant variables. This enables STIA to provide a more accurate and reliable assessment of your risk for different STIs, allowing you to make more informed decisions about your health. As with all of Helfie AI algorithms, if necessary, STIA can also connect you to care providers in your area, ensuring that you have access to the resources you need to manage your condition. By using this innovative AI technology, STIA aims to provide a more accessible and effective approach to STI screening, helping to improve health outcomes for the 400 million humans that are infected by an STI every year.
Helfie AI will assess you for all potential STI's.
PID In Brief A common and serious condition that affects women's reproductive organs. PID occurs when bacteria spread from the vagina or cervix to the uterus, fallopian tubes, and other reproductive organs. The infection can cause inflammation, pain, and scarring of the reproductive organs, which can lead to long-term health problems, including infertility.
PID
Pelvic Inflammatory Disease
(Women)
Why check? Early detection, diagnosis and treatment of PID are crucial to prevent long-term health complications, such as infertility, ectopic pregnancy, and chronic pelvic pain.
In Brief A common sexually transmitted infection (STI) is caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). In women, genital warts can occur on the vulva, vagina, cervix, or anus. They typically appear as small, flesh-coloured or grey growths and can be raised or flat, single or multiple, and small or large.
Genital Warts
(Women)
Why Check? If left untreated, genital warts can cause discomfort, itching, and burning. In some cases, they can also lead to long-term health problems, such as precancerous changes in the genital area or cervical cancer.
In Brief Pneumonia is a lung infection that can be caused by a variety of germs, including bacteria, viruses, and fungi. It causes inflammation and fluid buildup in the air sacs of the lungs, making it difficult to breathe and leading to symptoms such as cough, fever, chills, chest pain, and shortness of breath.
Genital Warts
(Men)
Why Check? The severity of pneumonia can range from mild to life-threatening, and the illness can affect people of all ages, but it is most dangerous for infants, young children, older adults, and individuals with weakened immune systems. Early detection can help with treatment.
In Brief A common and serious condition that affects women's reproductive organs. PID occurs when bacteria spread from the vagina or cervix to the uterus, fallopian tubes, and other reproductive organs. The infection can cause inflammation, pain, and scarring of the reproductive organs, which can lead to long-term health problems, including infertility.
UD
Uetheral Gonoreha
(Women)
Why Check? If left undetected and untreated, TB can cause serious health problems and can be fatal. TB is a major global health problem and is one of the leading causes of death from a single infectious agent. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), TB causes millions of deaths each year and is one of the top 10 causes of death globally.
In Brief NGU is a sexually transmitted infection caused by pathogens other than the bacterium Neisseria gonorrhoeae (gonorrhea). NGU can cause symptoms such as discharge from the penis, burning or pain during urination, and itching or irritation at the tip of the penis.
NGU
Nongonococcal Urethritis
(Men)
Why Check? If Nongonococcal Urethritis (NGU) is not treated, it can lead to the spread of the infection, complications in reproductive health, chronic pain, and increased risk of other STIs. Early treatment with antibiotics is important to prevent these negative outcomes and ensure the best health outcomes.
In Brief In men, Primary syphilis can present as a painless sore or ulcer at the site of infection, which is usually the genital area. But it can also occur on the lips, mouth, or anus Swollen lymph nodes, mild fever, fatigue and muscle aches are other symptoms.
Primary Syphylis
(Men)
Why Check? If undetected and left untreated, it can have significant health impacts, both in the short-term and long-term, including Neurological and cardiovascular complications. If syphilis is left untreated for a long time, it can spread to the nervous system and cause serious neurological problems, such as blindness, deafness, and even dementia. It can also infect the heart and blood vessels, leading to cardiovascular complications.
In Brief Genital herpes is an STI caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV). In men and women, genital herpes can cause outbreaks of painful blisters or sores in the genital or anal area, itching or tingling in the genital or anal area, burning or pain during urination and flu-like symptoms such as fever, muscle aches, and headache.
Genital Herpes
(Men & Women)
Why Check? If left untreated, genital warts can cause discomfort, itching, and burning. In some cases, they can also lead to long-term health problems, such as precancerous changes in the genital area or cervical cancer.
In Brief Candidiasis is a fungal infection caused by the yeast Candida. It can affect various parts of the body, including the mouth (oral thrush), throat, esophagus, genital area (vaginal yeast infection), and skin. In men, candidiasis can affect the genital area, causing itching, redness, and a rash. It can also cause pain and discomfort during intercourse and while urinating. The symptoms of candidiasis can vary depending on the location of the infection. In women, vaginal yeast infections often cause itching, burning, and discharge.
Candidiasis
(Women)
Why Check? If It's important to check for candidiasis because it can cause symptoms such as itching, redness, and discharge. In severe cases, it can also lead to complications, such as a secondary bacterial infection. If left untreated, candidiasis can also spread to other parts of the body, including the bloodstream.
In Brief In men, Primary syphilis can present as a painless sore or ulcer at the site of infection, which is usually the genital area. But it can also occur on the lips, mouth, or anus Swollen lymph nodes, mild fever, fatigue and muscle aches are other symptoms.
Primary Syphylis
(Men)
Why Check? If undetected and left untreated, it can have significant health impacts, both in the short-term and long-term, including Neurological and cardiovascular complications.

About STIA
STIA, short for Sexually Transmitted Infection AI, is engineered upon a type of artificial intelligence called a Bayesian model. Bayesian networks are a powerful form of artificial intelligence that use probabilistic graphical models to make predictions based on available data. One great example of the capabilities of Bayesian networks is STIA, Helfie's STI AI. STIA uses a Bayesian network to accurately screen for sexually transmitted infections. She asks you a series of questions, analyzes your answers, and provides a probabilistic assessment of the likelihood that you have contracted an STI. But the great advantage of using STIA to determine if you have an STI is that she is not human, and just an algorithm. This means she doesn't judge you or make assumptions based on stereotypes or personal biases. She's simply focused on providing you with accurate and reliable information about your sexual health. And given STIA's is an algorithm and not human, she make the experience of talking about your sexual helath a lot less uncomfortable. So, whenever you're concerned about a possible STI, have a chat to STIA and let this smart and sassy AI do the work for you, without any fear of judgement or bias.
STIA's Accuracy
STIA, Helfie's STI algorithm, has undergone extensive training and development by leading sexual health researchers and doctors from around the world. The algorithm has been refined in clinical environment involving over 15,000 patients, ensuring that it can provide the most accurate results possible. Moreover, STIA is constantly learning and improving its intelligence and accuracy with every STI screening. This means that the algorithm's predictions become more precise over time, enabling users to make informed decisions about their sexual health.
ACCURACY STI Predictor 96% What does this mean? It means that STIA is 96% accurate in predicting STIs. In other words, this means that the AI predictor is able to correctly identify the presence or absence of STIs in 96 out of 100 cases. Is this Important? It is important because assuming your anwsers to STIA's questions are honest, you can rely on her assessement. However, it does means that there is a chance that the STIA may produce false positive or false negative results in the remaining 4% of cases. Therefore, while STIA is highly accurate, she not foolproof.
