Tele-ICU services and AI solutions for hospitals, remote critical care with computer vision and clinical decision support.
Cloudphysician is an India-based healthcare technology company that provides tele-ICU services and artificial intelligence-powered clinical decision support tools to hospitals globally. The organization utilizes remote intensivists and proprietary computer vision software to deliver critical care support to hundreds of medical facilities, particularly in under-resourced and rural areas. To support its ongoing operations and technology development, the enterprise has successfully raised $4 million in Pre-Series A funding. This early investment round was backed by venture capital firm Elevar Equity, enabling the expansion of a corporate leadership team that currently includes President Mandar Vaidya and Chief AI Officer Dhruv Sud. Over the past decade, the platform has aggregated extensive inpatient datasets encompassing video, patient vitals, and clinical context to train its remote monitoring algorithms. Cloudphysician was founded in 2015 by critical-care doctors Dhruv Joshi and Dileep Raman.
Cloudphysician has raised $15.0M across 2 funding rounds.
Cloudphysician has raised $15.0M in total across 2 funding rounds.

Cloudphysician is a health-tech company building Smart-ICU solutions that combine AI, computer vision, machine learning, and remote clinical expertise to deliver critical care, primarily to hospitals in tier-2 and tier-3 cities in India.[1][2][4] It serves smaller hospitals lacking on-site intensivists by providing remote monitoring, advisory services, and the RADAR platform, which analyzes live video, vitals, and EMRs to guide care teams in real-time, addressing high ICU mortality rates due to specialist shortages.[2][3][4][5] The company solves the crisis of limited critical care access—India projected 300,000 ICU beds by 2021 but only 4,500 trained doctors—through technology-enabled interventions that have supported 280 hospitals, 2,000 beds, 130,000 patients, and 2.3 million interventions.[2][5] Growth momentum includes $10.5M funding in 2024 led by Peak XV Partners (plus earlier $4M pre-Series A), partnerships like Peak XV in 2024, and expansion into AI platforms and international markets.[1][6]
Cloudphysician was founded in 2017 by Dr. Dhruv Joshi (Co-founder and Global CEO) and Dr. Dileep Raman (Co-founder and Chief of Healthcare), both intensivists who identified India's acute shortage of critical care specialists amid rapid ICU bed growth.[1][2][5] The idea emerged from resource-constrained environments in emerging markets, particularly smaller Indian hospitals facing high mortality without emergency ICU expertise; by 2019, as a four-year-old startup, it had proven its remote monitoring model with over a dozen paying customers.[4][5] Early traction came with the June 2019 launch of the RADAR platform for ICU management, building on in-house tech like AI and analytics; pivotal moments include scaling proof-of-concept, $4M pre-Series A funding, and 2024's $10.5M round for AI and global push.[1][4][5][6]
Cloudphysician rides the AI-healthcare convergence trend, amplifying human expertise in critical care amid global clinician shortages, with timing perfected by post-2019 tech maturity (AI/ML, remote monitoring) and India's ICU boom.[4][5] Market forces like rising demand in emerging economies—where 90% of ICU needs lack specialists—favor its model, reducing mortality via tech-human collaboration while navigating regulatory uncertainties.[1][4][6] It influences the ecosystem by democratizing critical care, enabling smaller hospitals to compete, fostering HealthTech adoption in developing regions, and paving the way for AI-driven inpatient safety globally.[2][3][7]
Cloudphysician is poised to dominate Smart-ICU with AI enhancements and international expansion using recent $10.5M funding, targeting new countries and deeper tech like predictive analytics.[1][6] Trends like ambient AI, tele-ICU proliferation, and value-based care will accelerate growth, potentially tripling hospital partnerships amid aging populations and shortages. Its influence may evolve from India-focused innovator to global standard-setter, reimagining critical care access as AI matures—building on its mission to reach every patient, wherever they are.[2]
Cloudphysician has raised $15.0M across 2 funding rounds. Most recently, it raised $11.0M Series A in June 2024.
