About PANDAS Tracker — Built by a PANDAS Parent
PANDAS Tracker was built by Kenneth Vignali, a cybersecurity professional and PANDAS parent who spent years trying to track his child's condition in notebooks and spreadsheets before building the tool he wished had existed. SPM Health Tech LLC is the company behind PANDAS Tracker.
The Founder Story
Kenneth Vignali spent more than two decades in cybersecurity and intelligence work before becoming a PANDAS parent. When his child started showing symptoms — sudden behavioral changes, OCD behaviors that appeared overnight, anxiety responses that did not fit any usual explanation — the family spent years working through diagnoses that did not quite fit before landing on PANDAS. Eight years, many specialists, and more than one dead end.
Throughout that process, Kenneth tried to track everything. Notebooks. Spreadsheets. Custom templates. Nothing worked the way he needed because none of those tools were built for what he was trying to do: document a complex pediatric neuroimmune condition in a format a specialist could actually use in a 15-minute appointment. PANDAS Tracker was built to solve that specific problem.
Why the Security Posture Is Different
Most health apps are built by software teams who hire a security consultant before launch. PANDAS Tracker was built by someone whose career was security. The application was independently penetration tested before public release. A Business Associate Agreement is in place with the cloud infrastructure provider. Server-side access controls prevent any family from accessing another family's data. Data is encrypted at rest and in transit. None of it is sold. None of it trains AI without explicit consent.
SPM Health Tech Mission
SPM Health Tech LLC is building a family-first health tracking platform for children with complex pediatric autoimmune and neuroimmune conditions. Over 150 families requested access before the app launched publicly. Families convert to paid plans at 20% with zero paid advertising — a metric that reflects genuine utility, not marketing spend.
