Scaling access to health information with Turn.io & WhatsApp

The Turn.io Chat for Health Accelerator 2026 is a 24-week program that aims to enhance healthcare access and information delivery through WhatsApp, focusing on voice-enabled interaction to overcome literacy barriers. This initiative is in response to the global challenge of uneven healthcare access, where digital tools dependent on text limit their reach. By partnering with Turn.io, organizations will receive support to deploy real services using their platform, which already serves numerous health organizations globally. The program will select ten organizations to develop solutions for health information and patient engagement, leveraging voice AI technologies provided by ElevenLabs, the lead voice AI technology partner. This effort marks a shift from experimental to structured programs, emphasizing the deployment of robust, production-ready systems over pilot projects, with the ultimate goal of improving health communication and accessibility for low-literacy and multilingual populations. Applications for the accelerator are open until May 31, 2026, with the broader aim of extending voice-enabled services to more organizations via the ElevenLabs Impact Program, even for those not selected for the core cohort.
