US and Bengaluru-based healthtech startup Aarogya Tech has raised $1.8 Mn (around INR 15 Cr) in its seed funding round led by Hersha Group owner Hasu P Shah.
The startup plans to use the fresh funds to boost its product development and help scale up product and growth headcount to more than 20 in Bengaluru.
Founded by Prashant Trivedi and Lokendra Thakur last year, Aarogya Tech provides clinician-led, data-based personalised health management at home and community to aid in disease prevention and early diagnosis of disease.
Currently, Aarogya Tech has launched its digital healthtech platform in Bengaluru, which will be gradually scaled across India. The platform can profile the whole family being at home, and this data can be managed by a physician, monitoring BP, heart rate, weight, body composition, SPO2, and sleep.
It claims to have made remarkable strides within just a year of its operation, including the development of a disease-specific patient monitoring system to decrease chronic heart failure readmission rates.
Thakur said that the startup’s solution is to provide clinician-led, data-based personalised health management at home and in the community to diagnose disease early.
“21st-century healthcare should be centred at home with advanced and cutting-edge technology. Hospitals should be visited only for acute care; rest of health care can meet a person where they are and can be accessible from home or community centres. Aarogya promise is that of ‘The doctor will follow the patients, not the other way around’,” said Thakur.
The startup competes with the likes of Practo and HealthifyMe.
Speaking on his fund infusion in the startup, investor Shah said. “Investing in Aarogya Tech is driven by my belief in their unique, data-driven approach to health management, blending home and community care. This innovative model transforms how we view doctor interactions, paving the way for more positive, healthful experiences in healthcare.”
As per a report, the global digital health market size is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 18.3% between 2024 and 2030.
