Thriving Artificial Intelligence seems to have unlimited applications. The most exciting ones try to solve large-scale problems. Mojo is a French medtech startup with a vision to develop solutions that become the new \u2018gold standard\u2019 in fertility care and increase success rates threefold. Their solution for supporting the diagnosis of infertility \u2013 a microscope powered by the AI, automatically analyses the human sperm quicker, cheaper and more accurate. The company needed the support of skilled professionals to optimize and speed up the work. The engineers from the Embedded Competency Center in Sii support Mojo with organizing test framework and improving the code quality that enable Mojo to focus on the most important functionalities they provide to their clients.<\/strong><\/p>\n

A new frontier in fertility care<\/h5>\n

Mojo is an innovative startup aiming to change the world’s perception on infertility. In nearly half of the cases, it is caused by men, but medicine has not yet developed good tools for the diagnosis of sperm abnormalities, therefore the treatment process is usually focused on the woman. Mojo is working on solutions to change this state of affairs, including developing an artificially intelligent microscope for analyzing sperm. This is a real game changer in relation to the existing methods of testing the material. It makes the examination much more accurate \u2013 Mojo tools are extremely accurate \u2013 they show 97% agreement with the standards, achieving a really great result. What\u2019s more, it takes Mojo, on average, 7.5 shorter test times while reducing the involvement of two lab technicians.
\n\u2013 Our vision is to develop solutions that become the new \u2018gold standard\u2019 in fertility care and transforms success rates from 25% to 75%. Through AI and robotics, we\u2019re making high quality treatment quicker, cheaper and more accurate. Our global male fertility data bank represents the first step towards precision medicine in fertility \u2013 says Daniel Thomas, Co-founder and Chief Technical Officer at Mojo<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Multi-level challenges<\/h5>\n

Working on such an innovative solution is a very complex project. During the work on the solution aimed at providing best practices semen assessment consistently and reliably for every laboratory and complying with the WHO guidelines, the client faced challenges such as:
\n\u2022 finding the right people to expand the team,
\n\u2022 transition from startup to processing reproducible software development,
\n\u2022 improvement of data pipelines critical to AI training.
\nSii was ready to support Mojo in this fascinating endeavor on many levels. A team of experts, created in response to the client’s needs, supported Mojo with organizing test framework and improving the code quality, enabling the company to focus on the most important functionalities they provide to their clients.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Quality is key, especially in cases like Mojo\u2019s \u2013 says Pawe\u0142 Czapiewski, Consultant at Sii<\/strong>. \u2013 We organized the appropriate technical verification and provided Mojo with extra resources to enhance the software development team’s main focus on providing Python source code \u2013 adds Czapiewski.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Currently, we are in a process of building a test framework, so the whole team would have more clarity on the challenges they are facing, fix detected issues quicker and improve customer experience by dedicated more time for their customers \u2013 says Katarzyna \u0141ab\u0119d\u017a,\u00a0 Senior Software Engineer at Sii,<\/strong> who also reveals some more technical details. \u2013 Using Python\u2019s testing tool: Pytest, we are creating unit tests to cover individual parts of the code. During this testing process, we have gained an opportunity to learn from each other and we have found a better understanding of medical tool\u2019s issues so over time we become more and more self-reliant in some issues. Additionally, using the Robot Framework tool we are developing a system tests module and with that, we are in a process of setting up CI\/CD environment. It gives us a clean and simple solution for running our tests and generating reports for our client \u2013 adds Katarzyna \u0141ab\u0119d\u017a.
\nThe main benefit for the client was to increase the quality of the delivered solution and improve the confidentiality and the reproducibility of the development process \u2013 all of these objectives were successfully achieved.<\/p>\n

Technology as a driving force for development<\/h5>\n

By providing advice and implementing new solutions, Sii specialists helped Mojo to improve the quality of both code and documentation, and made technical debt manageable. The new features are now created faster and any issues detected by the customer are easier to fix. As a result, Mojo is expanding and more and more clinics are now starting to use their software.<\/p>\n

\u2013 I found this project very exciting as an engineer whose work has a positive impact on people lives \u2013 says Katarzyna \u0141ab\u0119d\u017a. \u2013 Not every startup has this much courage to be a pioneer in such a narrow field of medicine. Mojo team has many challenges ahead of them, but they are very motivated and have a strong belief, proven by data, that their product will help thousands of people around the world. It is a pleasure to work with such great experts and nice people at the same time. We can always count on each other support \u2013 adds Katarzyna \u0141ab\u0119d\u017a.<\/strong><\/p>\n
