About Prana
Summary
Prana delivers AI-powered primary care, pairing a continuously available AI physician with licensed human doctors. The AI monitors connected medical records and wearable data to catch gradual health changes between visits, handling intake, triage, and lab explanations. Human doctors step in for high-stakes decisions, prescription management, and telehealth visits, replacing the traditional episodic care model.
Business model
Free AI doctor chat plus a flat $39 per telehealth doctor visit, no subscription required.
Go-to-market
Patients access care directly with no account required to start, making it fully self-serve; they can pick specific conditions or needs from a menu and escalate to a licensed physician visit on demand.

An AI primary care doctor in your pocket
Prana replaces the reactive, 15-minute annual physical with continuous, proactive care. We connect to your medical records and wearables to watch for "clinical drift," catching subtle declines in health that human doctors miss between visits. Most AI health apps are just chatbots. Prana is a full-stack medical provider. Our AI acts as a always-on physician that watches your data, explains your labs, and manages your prescriptions. Safety & Scale: We automate 90% of the "grunt work" (history taking, logistics, triage) so our human doctors can focus purely on high-leverage decisions. This allows us to offer 24/7 physician care for a fraction of the cost of traditional care. The Team: - Meer Patel (CEO): JHU BME. Deferred Brown Medical School to build Prana because code scales better than appointments. - Vishvam Rawal (CTO): Ex-Quant. Building high-frequency data infrastructure for health signals. - Sanjit Menon (CHO): Graduating MD Candidate. Deep clinical expertise to ensure our models practice good medicine. Traction: Live in beta with early users.
