About Amiko

Amiko means friend. So does the way we build.

We are the connected inhaler company behind Respiro: smart inhaler sensors and the regulated data platform that turn everyday inhaler use into clinical intelligence, and respiratory care into something that feels less like admin and more like having someone in your corner.

Why we exist

The inhaler is everywhere. The picture around it isn't.

Inhalers are the most widely used respiratory treatment in the world, and one of the least understood. Between appointments, no one really knows whether a dose was taken, whether the technique was right, or whether a hard day is coming.

That gap is far from rare. It's the everyday reality for millions of people living with asthma and COPD, and for the clinicians trying to help them with only half the story. So we set out to close it: connected sensors that read every actuation, algorithms that turn those signals into adherence, technique and breathing-risk, and an app, Respiro, that hands the whole picture back to the person it belongs to.

The name is Esperanto for friend. It's not decoration. It's the brief for everything we make.

Our mission
Make every inhaled dose understood: turning real-world data into insight and personalised support, so patients and clinicians can act sooner, together.
Our vision
A world where connected inhalers and intelligent software lift outcomes and quality of life while bringing down the cost of care: no one managing a chronic respiratory condition in the dark.
What we stand for

Three commitments behind everything we ship.

A medical-grade platform and a warm consumer product come from the same place: a few principles we don't compromise on.

Evidence first

Earned, not asserted

Every claim has to stand up to peer review and a certified quality system. We'd rather hedge an honest number than ship a confident one we can't defend.

Designed for real life

Care that fits the day

Respiratory care shouldn't be another chore. We build around the inhaler and the routine a patient already has, never a new one they have to keep up with.

A friend in your corner

Support, not surveillance

The data belongs to the patient. We make technology that feels like having someone on your side: reassuring on the good days, ready on the hard ones.

How we build

We own the hard parts, and partner on the rest.

We own the full stack of connected respiratory care: the hardware on the inhaler, the algorithms that read it, and the regulated cloud it all runs on. Where someone does a thing better than anyone, we partner rather than reinvent.

Our sensors are engineered with Plastiape, our manufacturing partner, to be cost-effective at medical-device scale.

  • Connected hardware. Embedded or add-on sensor modules across a wide range of inhalers.
  • Regulated software. A medical-device data layer, with APIs and an SDK to build on.
  • Respiro. The consumer face that puts the whole picture in a patient's pocket.

Let's build the future of respiratory care.

Whether you make the medicine, deliver the care, or want to build with us, we'd love to talk.
