What Saatvy does

Saatvy is a transparent, personalized and natural wellness platform to manage chronic conditions such as gut/sleep disorder, diabetes, arthritis, and postpartum thyroiditis. We do this by personalizing the health plans which are created by experienced and authentic Ayurveda practitioners. Several people in the USA have trusted us with their natural wellness journeys. The biggest benefit our customers find in the first consultation is understanding the root causes of their health issues, where traditional medicine often falls short. Our Ayurvedic practitioners have decades of experience, with some serving on Ayurveda boards in the USA.

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We built a platform that connects people with authentic Ayurvedic practitioners who create personalized, natural health plans for chronic conditions like gut disorders, sleep issues, diabetes, arthritis, and postpartum thyroiditis. Our focus is on helping users understand the root cause of their health problems where conventional medicine often falls short.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live in San Jose, CA. The company is based there and would remain so after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Jose is where both founders live and where we developed Saatvy. We want to keep the company close to our base as we continue refining the product and building relationships with US-based Ayurvedic experts.
