How Ex-BharatPe CPO’s AI Startup Is Set To Change The Face Of Indian Healthcare
- Ankush Jain, former CPO of BharatPe, has launched an AI conversational platform called Jivi in India to help patients diagnose their illnesses independently based on their symptoms.
- Jivi has partnered with TATA 1mg for telemedicine and lab testing and claims to provide a basic healthcare screening for diseases like diabetes, tuberculosis and migraine.
- Jivi also allows users to check their heart rates and emotional well-being, and can also assist radiologists in making faster and more accurate decisions.
- Founder Ankush Jain has experience in AI from his previous roles with Walmart Labs and his own travel tech startup, Instalocate.
- Jivi's proprietary AI model, called Jivi MedX, was built using existing open-source LLMs and trained using an extensive, exclusive medical dataset.
- Jivi aims to monetise by earning a commission for user referrals to online marketplaces, licensing Jivi AI software to hospitals and doctors, and building an LLM for insurance companies.
- Jivi's investor and third co-founder, Andrew Ng, an AI research pioneer, provides global insights necessary for a global-scale expansion.
- Jain believes Jivi has a big ace up its sleeve in the form of Andrew Ng, which sets it apart from direct competitors in the AI-led healthcare space.
- However, as healthcare is a tightly regulated space, it remains to be seen how Jivi will walk a tightrope between regulation and innovation.
- The Jivi AI model is expected to launch fully in early 2022, after further fine-tuning.
