Why Tiru exists

Quality care needs the right people in place, and the right information in reach.

Tiru exists to raise the quality of care — helping providers keep their teams present and connected, keeping service information current for the public, and helping every health seeker find the right care nearby, whenever they need it.

01

Care teams on time, in touch

Care starts on schedule when staff are verifiably on site and leadership can reach every team member directly. Presence and communication become something a facility can see, trust and act on.

→ Tiru Ops
02

Information that stays current

When facilities keep their own services, hours and payment options up to date, patients arrive expecting what is truly available — fewer disputes, fewer wasted trips, and a reputation that holds.

→ Facility-managed listings
03

The right care, nearest first

Real-time information on facilities, specialists, tests and medicines, sorted by distance — so the right care is found the moment it is needed, not after hours of phone calls.

Our platforms

Two platforms. One direction.

One helps people find the right care. The other helps facilities deliver it well — both sides of the same healthcare journey.

Tiru Ops

A fingerprint tells you when someone arrived. Tiru Ops tells you where they were all day.

  • Verified on-site presence — QR plus GPS geofence, no hardware to buy
  • A live view of who is on shift, late or missing — from anywhere
  • Audit-ready hour records, leave, incidents and direct staff notices
  • A kiosk so staff without smartphones are never left out
Our story
“I chose digital health because improving one system can improve the lives of thousands of patients.”
AT
Dr. Anteneh TirusewFounder · General Practitioner

Tiru did not begin as a company. It began as two small tools, built to fix problems that kept getting in the way of care — a duty board that planned physician shifts, and a referral map of private facilities across Addis Ababa.

“Tiru” means good in Amharic — a byword for quality. It is the standard we hold every product to.
