Platform for clean urine-based diagnostics across genders, ages, and care settings
Arundhati Healthcare Pvt. Ltd. is building body-aligned urine collection systems to improve the accuracy of urine-based diagnosis. Its flagship product, Clevercup, is the world's first automatic urine collection device that separates the urine stream into first, mid, and late in a single use without user intervention. This ensures diagnostic accuracy in STIs and UTIs. The company is also developing a modular platform with pediatric and geriatric adapters, as well as point-of-care testing (POCT)-compatible formats for at-home screening and low-mobility patients. Arundhati Healthcare aims to enhance clinical decision-making, reduce repeat testing, and support antimicrobial stewardship globally by solving the foundational challenge of sample quality.
The startup has received ~₹1.15 crore in funding through prestigious fellowships and programs, including the Biodesign Fellowship (2023–25) at BRIC-THSTI, BIRAC BIG 2024 grant (incubated at Venture Centre Pune and RCB-BBB NCR Biotech Science Cluster), and the BFI Interconnect Fellowship 2025 by BFI (Sandeep Nailwal). It has also been selected for the Healthier India Program by Novo Nordisk & FITT, IIT Delhi and the Health Access Catalyst program by IKP Knowledge Park, along with associated cash prizes.
