Chikitsa is a free AI-powered healthcare platform offering symptom checks, medicine info, OCR-based food analysis, legal guidance & more—built for ethical, accessible Indian healthcare. No cost, no limits. Because health should be free.
What if getting instant wellness support didn’t mean breaking the bank… or waiting in fear?
That’s why I created Chikitsa – a free, AI-powered wellness platform built for moments when help feels out of reach. Not a replacement for professionals — but your first step when you don’t know where else to turn.
In a country where millions delay care due to cost, distance, or confusion, Chikitsa offers:
No sign-up needed:
• Personalized lifestyle tips
• Food ingredient & supplement analyzer
• Wellness Budget Buddy (generic alternatives)
• Natural wellness advisor
• Wellness Support Navigator (community + subsidized options)
For logged-in users:
• Private family health logs
• Personalized wellness dashboard
• Track health trends (BP, weight, mood, more)
• Legal wellness rights & AI-powered assessments
• Emergency wellness tools & guidance
• Document & report organizer
No cost. No ads. No judgment. Just wellness — the way it should be.
If this mission resonates with you, I’d love your support. Feedback, ideas, or just a simple upvote means the world. Let’s make everyday wellness free and accessible for everyone.
Looks really amazing . good idea and will really help people in making wise decisions for their wellness journey
@dixshant_kumar_jha Thank you so much for the kind words! That’s exactly what Chikitsa aims for — to empower people with clarity and confidence in their wellness journey, especially when access to trusted support feels distant. Your encouragement truly fuels the mission!
Can users save or export their consultation history for future reference?
@sophia_watson3Yes Sophia, users can save their consultation history through the health log dashboard. Once logged in, they can view, manage, and export their AI-powered consultations, symptom checks, and wellness insights — either for personal tracking or to share with a medical professional later. Chikitsa was designed with continuity and clarity in mind, so users don’t have to start over every time they seek help.
It took us months to find the right balance and I’m so glad it’s connecting with the community.
@avery_bolton Avery, this means a lot coming from someone who understands the effort it takes to build balance into a platform. It took months of iteration to ensure that Chikitsa feels both deep and accessible, and it’s so rewarding to see it resonate. Thank you for being part of this movement!
This initiative is so important providing free access to medical and legal guidance is a significant step forward. How does Chikitsa manage situations where symptom checks suggest seeing a doctor? Do you guide users to offline or online professionals?
@jackson_wells
Thank you so much, Jackson — I genuinely appreciate you highlighting the heart of Chikitsa’s mission.
To clarify:
Chikitsa is not a diagnostic or treatment tool, and we’re very careful to communicate that it’s not a replacement for doctors. Instead, it's designed as a first-response wellness companion, especially for those moments when professional care feels out of reach due to cost, distance, or fear.
When a symptom check suggests something potentially serious or unclear, Chikitsa does not attempt to give a conclusive answer. Instead, it clearly advises users to seek medical attention and explains why it may be necessary.
Here’s what happens next:
Hospital Recommendations by PIN Code: We provide users with a list of nearby hospitals (public and private), clinics, or wellness centers in their locality.
Legal & Rights Guidance: If the user is unsure about their rights (for example, in a government hospital or with insurance), Chikitsa gives easy-to-understand legal information to help them proceed confidently.
Budget-Friendly Pathways: For those concerned about cost, our Wellness Support Navigator connects them to subsidized healthcare services, NGOs, or alternative affordable options in their region.
Emergency Readiness: In case of critical symptoms, Chikitsa also shares checklists and actionable steps they can follow before they reach care — not as medical advice, but as empowerment.
In future updates, we’re working toward suggesting verified telemedicine platforms users can connect with instantly.
In essence, Chikitsa acts like a calm, informed friend, guiding people to make better choices in real time — especially when they feel overwhelmed or alone.
Your question touches exactly what we’re solving for — thank you again for giving this initiative your attention!
Amazing job. Does Chikitsa have plans to support regional Indian languages down the line?
@ruby_henry Thank you so much, Ruby! Yes, regional language support is absolutely on our roadmap—and not just as an afterthought. We’ve already built the settings infrastructure for language preferences, and we're now working to expand into Hindi, Tamil, Bengali, and more. Accessibility isn’t complete until it speaks everyone’s language, and we truly believe care should never be lost in translation.
How does the platform keep its medical or legal data up to date?
@samuel_kahlo Great question, Samuel!
We stay updated by regularly pulling information from reliable sources like government health portals, legal databases, and global organizations. Tools like web scraping and automated checks help us stay aligned with the latest public updates.
We’re not perfect — but we’re committed to staying current and transparent.
