## Segments
- **First-time mother discharged from the hospital before her 6-week follow-up**: First-time mothers are sent home with a generic pamphlet and nothing until a 6-week visit, leaving them unsure which symptoms in the high-risk first two weeks are normal recovery versus warning signs needing care. Trigger: The postpartum period is widely described as critical yet the most neglected phase for mothers, with the subacute weeks carrying real complication risk. Budget signal: Subscription, with a path to OB practice or payer sponsorship.
- **Budget owner who feels the operational cost of the broken workflow.**: Postpartum complications can be life-threatening, so the app must clearly support rather than replace clinical care and route warning signs to a provider instead of self-managing them. Trigger: AI-assisted product work and managed infrastructure reduce the first-version cost. Budget signal: $49-$499/month
- **Hands-on operator willing to pilot a narrow tool before a full rollout.**: New mothers in the first two weeks are exhausted, so daily engagement may drop without very low-friction check-ins. Trigger: Subscription, with a path to OB practice or payer sponsorship. Budget signal: $99-$1,000/year add-on
- **First-time mother discharged from the hospital before her 6-week follow-up who still run the workflow in spreadsheets, generic docs, email, or chat threads.**: First-time mothers are sent home with a generic pamphlet and nothing until a 6-week visit, leaving them unsure which symptoms in the high-risk first two weeks are normal recovery versus warning signs needing care. Trigger: The wedge is specific enough to test without claiming the whole market. Budget signal: Custom
