Perkant Tech holds a granted Indian patent (Application: 526020) and a pending U.S. patent (Application: 18/033,887) for an advanced apparatus designed to measure and acquire distress data from the human body, encompassing both psychological and physiological indicators. Aligned with the government’s National Digital Health Mission (NDHM), Perkant Tech’s integrated platform of measures, tracks and analyzes essential health vitals, redefining primary and preventive care delivery across rural and urban deployments. At the heart of this suite is Perkant Tech’s flagship invention, Abhay Parimiti—patented in India and the US—which provides automated health assessments in under 60 seconds, making healthcare insights accessible, rapid and impactful.
Perkant Tech’s system serves as a digital doctor for India, powered by patented AI-driven multi-disease prognostic technology, bridging healthcare gaps in underserved regions where medical infrastructure and personnel are scarce. The key focus areas include advancing product research and development to maximise the capabilities of its health monitoring systems. The startup aims to expand beyond core metrics such as cardiac and respiratory health, delving into specific disease detection, early onset identification and recovery tracking. Its vision is to develop technology that serves as an early-stage indicator for conditions traditionally requiring invasive testing, pushing the boundaries of non-invasive health monitoring.
