As per the company’s statement, the combination of new funds will speed up product development, build up the analytics and machine learning team and scale up the product and growth teams of the company in Bengaluru.
Established by IIT Kanpur/ISB alumnus Prashant Trivedi and Mayo Clinic-trained Critical Care Physician Dr. Lokendra Thakur in early 2023, The vision of Aarogya Tech is to democratize healthcare by developing an accessible, smart health companion that offers affordable, data-driven, clinician-led personalized health services at the convenience of the user’s doorstep.
Highlighting the company’s vision Lokendra Thakur, Co-Founder, Aarogya Tech states, “No one wants to see a doctor when they are feeling good. When we get sick, most of the time, it is too late to alter the course of the disease. This vicious cycle needs to end. Our solution is to provide clinician-led, data-based personalized health management at home and in the community to diagnose disease early. 21st-century healthcare should be centered 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 centers. Aarogya promise is that of “The doctor will follow the patients, not the other way around.”
Similraly, Investor Hasu P Shah says, “Investing in Aarogya Tech, co-founded by a Mayo-trained physician and an IIT engineer, 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. This approach is not only revolutionary but essential for the future of health care around the world.”
