20+ languages. Every Befund, prescription, and insurance bill — explained in words you actually understand.
"For the first time, my doctor actually understood my history."
That's not a statistic. That's your neighbour, your colleague, your in-laws. People who built lives here but still walk into every doctor's appointment hoping nothing important gets lost in translation.
45 minutes — that's how long the average misdirected visit takes. You explain symptoms in broken German. The doctor explains a diagnosis in words you've never heard. You nod. You leave. You search 'Befund Bedeutung' in the parking lot.
Your X-rays are in a clinic two countries away. Your vaccination card is in Arabic. Your last surgery report is on paper, folded twice, in a drawer at your mother's. 70% of people who arrived since 2020 say language is the biggest barrier — bigger than insurance, bigger than waiting times.
Google Translate can't read your Befund. Care to Translate is built for doctors, not for you. Health record apps assume you already know what 'Überweisung' means. We built the one tool that actually sits on your side of the desk.

Healthcare in Germany is hard whether you arrived last month or have lived here for years. We built for all of you.
Immigrants, refugees, expats, international students. You carry medical history from another country, often in another language. You don't yet speak fluent German, let alone medical German. Every appointment is a translation challenge.
Conversational German is one thing — explaining a chronic condition or understanding a Befund is another. You often avoid doctors until you have to go.
You coordinate appointments for children, elderly parents, or relatives who depend on you to translate, organise, and remember everything.
One wallet for your medical life. Built for the way you actually use it — in clinics, in emergencies, on your phone.
Upload existing documents — prescriptions, vaccination cards, lab results, surgery notes. BioTrail organises, translates, and stores them in one wallet on your phone. Photograph any Befund and search through everything later.
Real-time translation in 20+ languages — Arabic, Turkish, Ukrainian, Farsi, and more. Tap once, place your phone on the desk, both sides hear their language.
Plain-language explainers for Hausarzt vs. Facharzt, Überweisung, AU-Bescheinigung, Notaufnahme — what each means and when you need it. Walk into every appointment knowing what's happening.
Connect your Krankenkasse and see, in your language, what's covered, what costs extra, and what to expect on each bill. No more bill surprises.
Name, blood type, allergies, current medications — accessible without unlocking your phone, without internet, without an account. If something happens, paramedics see what they need to see, in German.

I used to bring my husband to every appointment just to translate. Now I bring my phone.
My German is okay. My medical German was zero. BioTrail's glossary saved me at the Notaufnahme.
I scanned my mother's prescriptions and finally understood what she's been taking for two years.
My daughter had a fever at 2am. The Notaufnahme staff didn't speak English. The translator just worked.
I always thought my Krankenkasse charged me wrong. Turns out half the bills were preventable. I just couldn't read them.
I've lived here longer than I lived in Turkey. But explaining my heart medication still takes 20 minutes. With BioTrail it takes one tap.
BioTrail is built by five founders who've watched friends and family fight to be understood by doctors in a language that wasn't theirs. We've translated prescriptions at kitchen tables. We've seen diagnoses get blurred. We're building the answer that should already exist.
