India carries a quarter of the global TB burden, yet patients delay presentation until symptoms become severe and irreversible.
No specialised hardware. Trained on real Indian OPD conditions, not a laboratory.
The problem
Acoustic biomarkers in a cough carry clinically significant diagnostic signal. Yet no screening model has been built for the real conditions of clinical deployment.

55M+
Indians live with chronic obstructive airway disease, overwhelmingly undiagnosed until permanent lung damage has occurred.
Lab ≠ Field
Prior acoustic models trained in clean laboratory settings collapse when exposed to ambient OPD noise, consumer microphones and network audio compression.
How it works
Designed for point-of-first-contact triage through low-bandwidth voice messaging, with zero app installation required.
A short voluntary recording sent via standard mobile voice messaging. No new software to install.
Log-Mel spectrogram features are extracted and evaluated against models trained on molecularly and objectively confirmed clinical ground truth.
Elevated-risk individuals are prioritised for confirmatory diagnostics (GeneXpert or spirometry) earlier in their disease trajectory. Pre-screening only; diagnosis remains strictly with clinicians.
Zero new infrastructure
Designed to deploy at national scale without creating a single procurement or operational barrier.
The vision
A single national acoustic dataset and multimodal AI architecture engineered to generalise across clinical phenotypes and geographies.
India's highest-burden infectious respiratory disease. Our initial disease-specific model targets presumptive TB triage anchored to molecular ground truth.
Simultaneous risk stratification for COPD, asthma and acute lower respiratory conditions from the same audio capture.
Recruited across six distinct epidemiological zones to ensure models perform robustly across regional acoustic and demographic variance.
We are not building a screening tool for a single clinic. We are building the acoustic respiratory intelligence layer for India.
Work with us
Chest and pulmonary OPDs as research sites. We fund and staff everything, you get named co-authorship and priority model access.
Warm introductions to hospital CMOs, medical directors or health department decision-makers move faster than cold outreach.
Medical institutions interested in clinical validation partnerships, co-authorship or joint grant applications in respiratory AI.
Investors who understand the Indian healthcare market and bring clinical relationships alongside capital. Pre-seed round open.
Whether you lead a chest OPD, oversee a hospital department, invest in clinical deep-tech, or want to explore research collaboration, connect with us.
