Niramai (short for Non-Invasive Risk Assessment with Machine Intelligence) is an Indian health-tech AI startup that focuses on early detection of breast cancer using advanced artificial intelligence and thermal imaging technology.

👉 Founded in 2016 and based in Bengaluru, Niramai aims to make cancer screening accessible, affordable, and non-invasive for women across the world.

🧠 What Niramai Does

Niramai develops AI-powered diagnostic solutions that analyze thermal (heat) images of the human body to detect abnormalities such as tumors.

• Uses AI + Machine Learning
• Detects breast cancer at an early stage
• Provides automated diagnostic reports
• Works without physical contact or radiation

👉 It acts as a smart screening tool for doctors and healthcare providers.

🚀 Key Technology: Thermalytix

🔥 What is Thermalytix?

• Niramai’s flagship product
• AI-based breast cancer screening system
• Uses thermal imaging (heat patterns) instead of X-rays

👉 It combines:

• High-resolution thermal sensors
• AI algorithms
• Cloud-based analytics

📊 Result:

• Early and accurate detection of abnormalities
• Generates a breast health score and report automatically

⚙️ How It Works

1. Capture thermal images (no touch required)
2. AI analyzes temperature patterns
3. Detects abnormal heat signatures (possible tumors)
4. Generates diagnostic report
5. Doctor reviews results

👉 Entire process is safe, quick, and painless
