Life with arthritis can be challenging, but you're not alone. Meet Clara, a groundbreaking artificial intelligence (AI) engine, crafted to empower you to gain confidence and control over life with arthritis.
Clara uses natural language processing (NLP) to create humanlike responses to your queries about arthritis. Its AI-enhanced search engine provides relevant content, including articles from Arthritis NSW and other partners. As the platform grows, it learns more about arthritis with the help of the Arthritis community.
Why Clara?
Access to information and encouraging support can be transformative for people living with arthritis. Clara offers:
- Curated Support - Tailored answers to help you gain control and confidence in managing your health.
- Trusted Resources - A wealth of vetted, expert information, from articles to practical tips.
- Ease of Use - Humanlike communication for natural and straightforward interactions.
What kinds of questions can I ask Clara?
Clara is equipped to assist with a wide range of queries. Using Arthritis NSW's extensive archives, Clara can address questions about your condition, health tips, and lifestyle advice specific to arthritis and related conditions. Remember, Clara is continually learning and improving to serve you better and while Clara is a robust tool, we encourage users to verify critical health information independently as part of their health management journey.
Is Clara free to use?
A testament to Arthritis NSW's dedication to supporting those with arthritis, Clara is available for free at the askclara.com.au website. Future access via iOS and Android apps will require a free Clara account registration. Clara's mission is to be a freely available resource for people living with arthritis and related conditions.
Who created Clara?
Developed by Arthritis NSW (now The Arthritis Movement), a health charity established in 1967, Clara is part of the organisation's ongoing efforts to improve the lives of those affected by arthritis and musculoskeletal conditions.
