Tulu Health, a pioneering healthtech and fintech startup founded by experts from AIIMS, IIT, and Stanford, has launched India’s first AI Agent Platform aimed at transforming patient experiences and streamlining hospital operations. Officially unveiled on April 12 at Pullman Aerocity, Delhi, the platform integrates modular AI agents with WhatsApp and hospital websites—making digital health services more accessible, personalised, and user-friendly.
“Tailored for Hospitals, Built for Patients,” the platform is designed to eliminate friction in the healthcare journey. With support for multiple languages and mobile optimisation, it ensures that even users with low digital literacy can access AI-powered assistance without needing to download new apps.
Dr. Adil, Founder of Tulu Health, said, “We built Tulu to meet patients where they are—on WhatsApp, in their language, with zero friction. This isn’t just a tool; it’s a transformation in how India experiences healthcare.”
A former AIIMS doctor and Stanford India Biodesign fellow, Dr. Adil emphasised how Tulu addresses challenges like lack of care continuity, high out-of-pocket costs, and post-discharge gaps. This is his second healthtech venture, following a BIRAC-funded startup incubated at IIT Delhi.
Tulu’s platform supports hospitals by expanding patient reach, enhancing care flow, and automating workflows through white-labeled AI agents that plug into systems like EHR, CRM, ERP, and WhatsApp.
Patients benefit from AI-assisted decision-making, cashless support for pre- and post-hospitalisation (up to 180 days), and real-time access to financial options. Advanced tech—such as generative AI, NLP, and deep learning—powers the solution, developed in-house with support from global partners like OpenAI and Anthropic.
Dr. Vijay Agarwal, President of the Consortium of Accredited Healthcare Organisations, praised Tulu’s AI-driven pre-surgery consent and education tools, saying, “Tulu represents a great hope for the future of healthcare: collaborative, compassionate, and innovative.”
Akif, Advisor to Tulu Health and ex-Innovaccer leader, added, “Tulu’s AI agents offer human-centered design at scale. The monetisation model through hospital-linked marketplaces is a breakthrough.”
Tulu Health is onboarding hospital networks, state governments, and NBFCs for pilot projects. It’s also in discussions with leading public health bodies like AIIMS, GTB Hospital, and LNJP for broader rollout.
With a B2B2C model, SaaS subscriptions, and transaction-linked revenue streams, Tulu aims to become a global AI agent marketplace. The startup is well-positioned to lead India’s push into Agentic AI, with Deloitte reporting that 80 per cent of businesses are exploring autonomous agent solutions.
