Mental health is no longer an afterthought for India’s young generation.

Gen Zs and millennials are taking their emotional well-being as seriously as their physical health, and rightly so. In a world where work-life boundaries are blurring, social media drives constant comparison, and conversations around burnout, JOMO, and boundaries dominate daily life, people are finally pausing to ask: “How am I really doing?”

The numbers speak for themselves. India’s mental health app market, valued at nearly US $497.9 million in 2024, is projected to reach US $1.4 billion by 2030, growing at 18.5% CAGR. Yet, despite rising awareness, stigma and lack of access continue to block progress.
That’s the gap Tranquil AI aims to bridge.

Founded in 2024 by four engineering students turned startup founders, from VIT Vellore: Shreyas Tiwary (Co-founder & CFO), Arihant Bharadwaj (Co-founder & CEO), Ritwik Tripathi (Co-founder & CTO), and Ashutosh Kala (Co-founder & COO), Tranquil AI was born out of their shared experiences with academic stress, isolation, and anxiety during COVID. What started as a college hackathon project has now evolved into one of India’s most promising AI-driven mental-wellness platforms.

To help users understand and manage their emotions in real time, Tranquil blends:

1. AI-powered conversations
2. Mood tracking
3. Journaling
4. Personalised analytics

Since launch, it has facilitated over 25,000 conversations, recorded 12,000+ sessions, completed 1,000+ journals, and achieved a 95% user satisfaction rate with five-star ratings on both iOS and Android.

Its premium plan, priced at just ₹199 per month, ensures mental health stays accessible, not exclusive.
With growing adoption among colleges, corporates, and institutions, Tranquil AI is redefining how India approaches emotional well-being, empathetic, affordable, and powered by technology that listens.

I fortunately did and the energy and vibe of building together in college is incredible. It starts with hackathons, personal projects and then evolves into something much bigger.

The result was @tranquil_labs

The future of India is being quietly compromised — not by a lack of talent, but by a lack of support.

Every day, we meet students filled with brilliance, ideas, and ambition.

But behind that spark, there’s often silent suffering — stress, anxiety, burnout, and isolation that rarely makes it to the spotlight.

And when the system fails to catch these cries for help, the consequences can be heartbreaking.

We’ve seen it too many times.

If we are serious about becoming a global leader, we must protect our greatest strength — our youth.

Their mental health is not a luxury. It’s a non-negotiable foundation for any sustainable progress.

In the last few months, our team has been working closely with mental health professionals, educators, and young users.

What we’ve learned is clear:

What students need is non-judgmental, accessible, and consistent support — something that listens when they can’t speak, that reaches them before things spiral.

It’s no longer enough to talk about mental health in slogans.

We need integrated systems, compassionate tech, supportive institutions, and bold policy shifts.

It’s time to move from awareness to action.

That’s why I’m inviting:

🧠 Counselors & psychologists

��� Educators & school leaders

💼 Mental health innovators & researchers

⚖️ Policymakers & changemakers

To come together.

To share, collaborate, co-create.

And to rethink how we support students — from the inside out.
