Expect is an AI-augmented pelvic floor physical therapy platform built to close the gap between Utah's 1.6 million women and the state's five board-certified pelvic floor specialists.
American Board of Physical Therapy Specialties (ABPTS) Board-Certified Pelvic & Women's Health Clinical Specialists for 1.6 million women across a state nearly twice the size of New York.
A 2026 Utah state report on physical therapy found that pelvic health has some of the longest patient wait times of any PT specialty — and that Utah is on track to be one of the worst states in the country for PT access by 2037.
Women in rural areas are traveling four to five hours each way just to be seen, and many simply give up.
There's now an established link between pelvic floor dysfunction and depression — most likely to surface postpartum, compounding existing vulnerabilities.
Five specialists. 1.6 million women. Expect was built to solve this.
Expect doesn't replace physical therapists — it multiplies their reach. A single PT can oversee care at a scale impossible through traditional practice.
Patients complete the same evidence-based battery a board-certified pelvic floor PT would use in a clinical evaluation — via telehealth, anywhere in Utah.
Expect runs on a deterministic clinical algorithm co-developed with a board-certified PT. Same inputs, same evidence-based outputs every time. Patent pending.
In the initial pilot, PTs review 100% of AI-generated plans before anything reaches the patient. As safety and efficacy are established, PTs focus on flagged complex cases.
The intake surfaces red flags beyond the pelvic floor — depression, colorectal symptoms, and more — routing those patients to appropriate Utah providers.
Expect's clinical algorithm was co-developed with an ABPTS Board-Certified Pelvic & Women's Health Clinical Specialist — ensuring the platform meets the same standard of care a specialist would apply in person.

The pelvic floor is an entry point. Expect's intake surfaces conditions that often go undetected.
Mental health screening. Depression questions embedded in the intake — flagged patients routed to mental health resources automatically.
Colorectal red flags. Certain symptom patterns may indicate serious conditions. Expect flags those patients for in-person follow-up — critical as colon cancer rises in young adults.
Referral integration. Building partnerships with Utah health systems to ensure seamless handoffs when in-person care is needed.
Expect began as the first prenatal, postnatal, and pelvic floor fitness platform where every workout is approved by OB/GYNs for safety — bringing expert-guided movement to women at every stage.
That foundation in clinical rigor led us here: an AI-augmented pelvic floor physical therapy platform designed to close the care gap for women across Utah and beyond.
