We intend to leverage AI-driven analytics to uncover health risk patterns: Vineet Mehta, Co-founder & CTO, Alyve Health
Alyve Health was founded with a clear goal in mind, to make healthcare more accessible, personalised, and easy to use. Vineet Mehta, Co-founder and CTO, played a key role in turning this vision into reality. The idea was to move away from the complex and disconnected healthcare experience that many people face, and instead create a platform where everything, from preventive care to payments, could be managed in one place. Over the years, Alyve Health has grown into a strong and trusted ecosystem, now serving over 1.5 million members. In this exclusive interview, Mehta talks about what inspired the journey, how the platform uses behavioural science to keep users engaged, and how AI and data are helping predict health risks and guide better care. He also shares how Alyve Health is making the entire experience cashless and seamless, while ensuring top-level data security and compliance.
What motivated you to start Alyve Health, and how has your mission evolved from launch to now?
The motivation was simple, yet profound: bring healthcare to people’s fingertips—make it accessible, outcome-driven, and real. From day one, the vision has been to simplify how individuals engage with their health, moving away from fragmented experiences to a single, seamless platform.
What made this possible was a founding team that struck the perfect balance—shared vision, diverse expertise, and mutual respect. That dynamic continues to fuel our progress.
Over the past five years, our journey has seen new business models emerge, user needs evolve, and industry expectations shift. Through it all, we’ve built a team of high-performing, self-motivated individuals who’ve helped shape the Alyve family. Today, we’re proud to serve over 1.5 million members with a strong retention rate and a robust partner network that spans the healthcare ecosystem.
Your platform is described as built with behavioural science in mind — can you explain how behavioural insights are embedded into the user experience?
At Alyve Health, behavioural science is not an optional layer—it is foundational to our entire product philosophy. We draw on psychology, behavioural economics, and data science to subtly and effectively guide users toward healthier decisions. This includes nudges and micro-interventions like timely prompts to “Take a stretch break” or “Drink a glass of water,” which help shift habits in a gentle yet impactful way. Our platform also incorporates personalisation and smart feedback loops, tailoring the user experience based on individual data to deliver insights and recommended actions aligned with each person’s unique goals. We’ve embedded gamification elements such as points, badges, challenges, and leaderboards to introduce a sense of fun and progression, maintaining high engagement levels. Additionally, we apply habit formation techniques by breaking down long-term goals into manageable steps through structured habit coaching programs that promote consistent, small daily wins.
What kind of data analytics or AI capabilities does Alyve Health use to personalise health plans and predict employee health risks?
We intend to leverage AI-driven analytics to uncover health risk patterns, predict future conditions, and personalise care journeys. By analysing medical, behavioural, and engagement data, we will be able to proactively identify risk conditions and recommend targeted interventions—ranging from lifestyle coaching and preventive screenings to specialist consultations. This approach drives timely, data-backed care that’s relevant, personalised, and effective.
How does your technology enable a completely cashless experience for users across preventive and curative care?
We’ve built one of the largest integrated networks across health services—doctors, diagnostics, mental health, wellness, and more. At the core of this system is Alyve Pay, our proprietary health payments layer that ensures users can access care without the burden of out-of-pocket expenses. From preventive screenings to curative consultations, it’s all cashless, connected, and convenient.
What steps have you taken to ensure data privacy, interoperability, and compliance in your healthtech ecosystem?
Trust is non-negotiable in healthcare. That’s why we’ve prioritised robust data protection practices from the outset. Alyve Health is committed to the highest standards of compliance—adhering to frameworks like HIPAA and ISO, and moving towards SOC2 certification.
We conduct regular independent audits and have built systems with interoperability in mind—ensuring seamless, secure integration across stakeholders while giving users full control over their data.
