Lifechart

Lifechart operates as a Gurugram-based health-tech company focused on Ayurvedic solutions for gut health, positioning itself as a full-stack digital wellness platform. Established in 2021 by Mukul Shah, Mansi Sharma, and K Sandeep, the company aims to address the underserved alternate healthcare market in India, particularly in Tier 2 and 3 cities. The inspiration for Lifechart came from CEO Mukul Shah's personal experience of seeking effective Ayurvedic treatment for his mother's diabetes and recognizing a gap in accessing qualified practitioners digitally.

The co-founding team combines diverse expertise. Mukul Shah, a BITS Pilani graduate and serial entrepreneur, previously founded the successfully acquired YoloBus and brings experience from companies like Nestaway and DLF. He is responsible for Lifechart's growth, finance, and marketing. Mansi Sharma, the COO who also worked at YoloBus, manages operations, customer experience, and product development. CTO K Sandeep contributes his technical expertise from the e-commerce, fintech, and healthcare sectors to develop the company's scalable technology stack.

Lifechart's business model is centered on digitally connecting patients with a network of over 500 BAMS-certified Ayurvedic doctors for consultations, which are often offered for free to build trust. Revenue is primarily generated through the sale of its in-house formulated herbal products and wellness kits that address common gut ailments like constipation, fatty liver, piles, and acidity. The company uses a B2C approach, offering consultations and doorstep delivery of its products. The platform leverages a proprietary AI engine to connect patients with doctors in under 60 seconds, analyze customer data to predict demand, and inform the development of new products. Looking forward, Lifechart plans to introduce at-home DIY gut health diagnostic kits, expand into 150 offline wellness clinics, and launch a new product line targeting Tier 1 cities.

Since its inception, the company has secured approximately $700,000 in funding over multiple rounds. A pre-seed round in 2022 raised $200,000, and a subsequent seed round in 2024 brought in an additional $500,000. Key investors include Prajay Advisors, Expert Dojo, Agility Ventures, and notable angel investors like Nitish Mittersain (founder of Nazara Technologies). The capital is being used to enhance AI capabilities, launch proprietary diagnostic solutions, and expand its team and services.
