Prana was founded in 2025 by Sanjit Menon, Meer Patel, and Vishvam Rawal and is part of the Y Combinator Winter 2026 batch. Prana is a full-stack medical provider whose AI acts as an always-on physician that watches patient data, explains labs, and manages prescriptions.
Prana automates 90% of healthcare grunt work, allowing the company to offer under 60 minute access to a physician, 24/7, for a fraction of traditional care costs. The platform connects to medical records and wearables to watch for clinical drift, catching subtle health declines that human doctors miss between visits.
