BENGALURU, 12 November 2026: Happiest Health has officially launched its fifth business unit, Happiest Digital Health, unveiling a strategic roadmap of 11 digital applications designed to extend patient care beyond traditional clinical settings. By integrating continuous digital support into its ecosystem, the organization aims to deliver a holistic, end-to-end approach to personal healthcare.
Ashok Soota, Chairman & Chief Strategy Officer, Happiest Health, highlighted the scale of the opportunity: “Digital health is the fastest-growing segment in healthcare, projected to reach USD 1.8 trillion globally by 2033 at a 25% CAGR. Currently, the market is highly fragmented, with individual providers addressing only isolated needs, leaving the Atithi (guest/patient) to piece together their own care journey. Our approach is fully integrated. By covering every segment of digital health, we aim to become the leading digital health player in India.”
To power this expansion, the company is backing the initiative with substantial capital. Davis Karedan, Co-Chairman & Chief Operating Officer, Happiest Health, stated: “Having already invested several hundred crores into physical infrastructure across Diagnostics, Healthcare Services, and Wellness, we recognize that digital transformation demands equally robust technological backing. We are committing ₹500 Crore exclusively to technology and infrastructure over the next five years, with approximately 50% dedicated directly to Happiest Digital Health.”
Ravi Joshi, President & CEO, Digital Health, Happiest Health, detailed the immediate product rollout: “We have curated a portfolio of 11 applications set to launch over the next 18 months. A core priority is our Diabetes Management Solution, addressing a critical need in India, where 100 million people live with diabetes. Our flagship app, DiaBeater, combines doctor-led care, AI assistance, and advanced glucose monitoring. Additionally, starting today, we are making ColonE, our comprehensive gut microbiome test, accessible to Atithis nationwide.”
The human gut houses trillions of microbes that influence digestion, immunity, and daily vitality. Utilizing Next-Generation Sequencing, ColonE analyzes microbial DNA from a simple stool sample, generating roughly 5 GB of raw data. Happiest Health translates this complex dataset into an actionable, easy-to-read wellness report, followed by a guided consultation with a dedicated nutritionist to tailor dietary and lifestyle adjustments. While not a clinical diagnostic tool, ColonE serves as a foundational preventive wellness initiative.
Digital technologies are propelling healthcare into a new era defined by precision, speed, and personalization. By pairing data-driven insights with compassion and strong ethical standards, Happiest Health empowers individuals to make informed health decisions and achieve superior outcomes without unnecessary testing.
