🎉 Dana Reaches 200,000 Followers — And Now Works in Any Language
CureChat, the company behind the AI-powered diabetes assistant Dana, has surpassed a major milestone: Over 200,000 people now follow the Diabetes Food Club Facebook page, making it one of the largest global communities focused on diabetes-friendly food, tips, and support — especially in Africa, South Asia, and other underserved regions.
And now, a major upgrade is unlocking access for millions more: “Dana now works in almost any language — not just English or Spanish,” says Dr. Shimon Zilbershlag, founder and CEO of CureChat, “We’re talking about real, everyday languages: Swahili, Hindi, Hausa, Yoruba, Bengali, Tagalog, and more.”
Dana offers 24/7 support on WhatsApp and Messenger. People ask about blood sugar, weight, cravings, and food — and Dana responds instantly with personalized tips based on American Diabetes Association (ADA) guidelines.
Now, thanks to its multilingual upgrade, Dana can understand and reply in hundreds of local languages, making it accessible to communities who have historically been left out of digital health tools. “A mother in Kenya can ask about ugali in Swahili. A teacher in India can ask about rice in Hindi,” says Dr. Zilbershlag, “They don’t need to switch languages. Dana adapts to them.”
Dana is not a complicated health platform. It’s a simple chat assistant anyone can message — no app, no forms, no cost. “Our goal has always been clear: make diabetes support free, easy, and available to everyone,” says Dr. Zilbershlag, “Now that Dana understands their language, we’ve removed one of the biggest barriers.”
Thousands of people already use Dana daily. But with this new upgrade, CureChat expects that number to grow rapidly.
