Right now, somebody is deciding not to get tested. Not because there’s no clinic nearby, not because they can’t afford it — but because they’re terrified of what happens after. The loneliness of a result. The weight of knowing. We think about that person a lot.
What We Keep Seeing
We’ve stood in warehouses stacked with test kits headed for disposal. Perfectly good. Clinically accurate. And completely untouched — because the people who needed them were too afraid to be seen picking one up. That image stays with you.
And then there’s the other side: the few people who do manage to test at home. They get a result — maybe the hardest news of their life — and there’s just... nothing. No one to call. No one who already knows what to say. No obvious next step. Just a person staring at a strip, alone in their bathroom, trying to figure out what to do now.
We kept asking: why does the test exist if everything around it is designed to make people avoid it? That question became MeMeter.
For You
Open. Swab. Read. No clinic, no waiting room, no forms. You can do it at your kitchen table or wherever feels right.
You’ll have your answer before your coffee gets cold. Fast enough to act on immediately, if you need to.
Same rapid diagnostic technology used in clinics around the world — just without the fluorescent lights and the anxiety of a waiting room.
MeMe — our AI companion — is there before you open the kit, while you wait, and especially after. Built on real crisis counseling methods, not chatbot small talk.
The MeMeter Journey
A private risk assessment with no sign-up, no data stored, and no judgment. Just honest answers to help you figure out if testing makes sense right now.
Using an at-home kit? Picked one up from a clinic? Got a QR code from your doctor? Doesn’t matter — MeMe works with any test, any brand. It walks you through each step and stays with you during the wait. That part is the hardest. We know.
If the news is hard, MeMe is trained in Psychological First Aid — the same approach used by crisis counselors. And if you need PEP, those first 72 hours matter enormously. We help you move fast without panicking.
We help you find a clinic, a provider, a counselor — privately, and only when you’re ready. Nothing is automatic. Nothing is reported. You decide what happens next.
Treatment works incredibly well — when people stay on it. MeMe keeps checking in, helps with adherence, and reminds you that managing HIV in 2026 looks nothing like it did even ten years ago.
For Public Health
The people most at risk are often the least likely to walk into a clinic. MeMeter goes where the health system can’t — into homes, into communities that have learned to distrust institutions.
The US loses roughly 34% of diagnosed patients between diagnosis and viral suppression. Each one represents over $230,000 in avoidable lifetime cost — and potential onward transmission. MeMeter is built for exactly that gap, turning weeks of paralysis into hours of guided action.
We use zero-knowledge encryption — meaning even we can’t see results. Not “we promise not to look.” Literally, architecturally impossible. That’s the kind of privacy it takes to build trust in communities that have been burned before.
NGOs spend weeks compiling data for CDC and HRSA reporting — often estimating numbers they can’t actually track. MeMeter auto-generates every metric funders ask for: testing reach, completion rates, linkage-to-care, retention. The only change for your team? A QR code on the kit.
Low connectivity? Limited staff? MeMeter runs on any smartphone browser, works offline for core functions, and requires zero training to deploy. It’s designed for the constraints NGOs actually face — not the ones that look good on a product spec.
You don’t need to switch test kits, change vendors, or overhaul your workflow. A QR code on any existing test — at-home, clinic-administered, hospital-issued — connects the user to MeMeter’s full care pathway. Same steps. Any brand. Any setting.
What We Believe
Zero-knowledge encryption. We can’t see your results — not because we choose not to, but because we built it so nobody can. Not us, not a hacker, not a government.
MeMe doesn’t report anything to anyone. There’s no institution behind the curtain. If you want to close the app and never come back, you can. We think that’s exactly why people stay.
Motivational Interviewing. Psychological First Aid. These aren’t buzzwords — they’re the methods that actual crisis counselors use with actual people in actual emergencies. We just made them available at 3am in your living room.
HIV is treatable. It’s manageable. For most people, it’s not a death sentence anymore. But the fear of testing? The shame? That still is. We’re going after the stigma.
Everyone asks why we’d take on something this hard. Here’s the thing — AI can do a lot now, but there are still problems that need someone to just show up and do the work. So we did. We didn’t wait for the perfect test kit. We built the system around it first — because people are already testing, already scared, already alone with their results. That part couldn’t wait.Vtwo Liang — Founder & CEO
Where This Goes
Small enough to fit in a clutch. Packaging you’d leave on your bathroom shelf next to your moisturizer. Something so ordinary that nobody looks twice — because there’s nothing to look twice at.
That’s where we’re headed. A world where checking your HIV status is as routine as checking your blood pressure. Where the test itself carries no more emotional weight than a pregnancy test at a drugstore — just a thing people do, because knowing is obviously better than not knowing.
But we started with the hard part first. Because even the most beautifully designed test means nothing if people are still too scared to pick it up. So we’re fixing the fear first. Then we’ll make the object so easy, so natural, so unremarkable — that one day, the fear won’t even make sense anymore.
We’re looking for partners, investors, and people in public health who think the way we think. If ending stigma matters to you as much as it does to us — we’d love to hear from you.
