Know if you've contracted a STI in 60 seconds.
STIA is an AI-powered tool to check for sexually transmitted infections. The tool uses a ML model to analyse 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. STIA allows for a probabilistic assessment of the likelihood of infection, taking into account several variables. This enables STIA to provide an 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 an accessible and effective approach to STI checking, helping to improve health outcomes for some of the 400 million humans that are infected by an STI every year.

The algorithm has been refined in a 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. 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.
