Doxper, a health-tech startup that has built a mobile application allowing doctors to maintain patients’ medical records, has raised Rs 4.8 crore in a seed funding round.
The funding round was led by Vidal Healthcare, along with the participation from GrowX Ventures. Angel investment platform Capier Investments and VC firm Globevestor have also participated in this round.
Under this deal, Girish Rao, managing director of Vidal Healthcare, and Siddharth Dhondiyal, representing GrowX Ventures, have joined Doxper’s board of directors.
The newly infused capital will be used by the company to scale up operations and develop its technology platform by adding more layers such as machine learning, handwriting recognition and artificial intelligence.
Shailesh Prithani, CEO and Co-founder of Doxper said,
Capital raised will be deployed to scale up operations and to further enhance technology platform by improving or adding more layers on top of the current stack including machine learning, handwriting recognition and AI for better care outcomes. The vision is to make Doxper the de-facto choice for healthcare digitisation in India and other emerging markets.
In a joint statement, Girish Roa and Siddharth Dhondiyal said,
The problem of not recording healthcare data in digital format is an expensive one and when solved has benefits of exponential proportions. The simplicity of the solution is the biggest USP of Doxper.
Founded by Shailesh Prithani, Pawan Jain, and Randeep Singh, the company offers comprehensive recording of medical prescriptions as well as interactions between a clinician and a patient.
The company is currently offering its services to doctors in Delhi/NCR, Jaipur, Pune, Bangalore and Mumbai. It has also remotely started supporting a few doctors in other cities as well.
It claims to have more than 400 leading physicians and specialists using its platform, including AIIMS Breast Cancer Clinic, Prashanti Cancer Care Mission, Biocon Foundation, Jain Fertility & Mother Care Hospital, and others.
