RightLife rolls out wearable-free AI platform for preventive health
MUMBAI: RightLife, part of JetSynthesys, has launched what it claims is India’s first unified, AI-driven, wearable-free preventive healthcare platform, positioning the smartphone as the centrepiece of everyday health management. Unveiled in Mumbai on 20 January, the platform aims to bridge the gap between rising health awareness and sustained adoption of preventive care in a market weighed down by high costs, fragmented apps and reliance on expensive wearables.
Built as a digital health co-pilot, RightLife integrates sleep, nutrition, movement and mental wellbeing into a single interface, offering personalised guidance through weekly and quarterly health intelligence reports. Using proprietary facial scan technology, AI-powered food scanning and advanced data correlation models, the platform delivers actionable insights without hardware dependency, targeting lifestyle-linked conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, sleep disorders and chronic stress.
RightLife founder Nilanjan Mukherjee, said preventive healthcare in India has faltered not for lack of intent but because solutions have failed to fit daily life. Adit Mukherjee, co-founder, said the wearable-free, smartphone-first approach enables realistic habit formation rather than surface-level tracking. The company stressed that the platform supports decision-making and behaviour change, not diagnosis, and is designed to complement clinical care while remaining scalable across individual and workplace wellness ecosystems.

Piyush Thakur steps down as Inshorts’ chief revenue officer
Former vice president and cro says exit marks a new chapter after close to a decade of building revenue and partnerships at Inshorts Group.
NOIDA: Piyush Thakur has stepped away from Inshorts Group after nearly 10 years with the company, marking the end of a long tenure that culminated in his role as chief revenue officer.
In a farewell note, Thakur said he was “turning a new page” after almost a decade at Inshorts, calling it one of the hardest professional decisions he has made. He added that his exit was not driven by uncertainty about the future, but by reflection on a long association with the company.
Thakur joined Inshorts in October 2016 as vice president and spent around seven years in the role before being elevated to chief revenue officer in April 2024, a position he held until April 2026.
He said his tenure was defined by “thousands of mornings, late nights, product debates and breakthrough moments”, as the company evolved into a large-scale digital news platform used by millions.
In his note, Thakur emphasised that Inshorts’ growth was a collective effort across teams, adding that engineers, designers, sales teams and customer support staff all contributed to building the platform. He said the company’s success was not the result of individuals but of “everyone who stayed, passed through, and left their mark”.
Before Inshorts, Thakur worked across several digital media and business development roles. At ESPN, he served as senior regional manager from October 2015 to October 2016, focusing on growth initiatives, strategic opportunities and video distribution.
At Times Internet, he worked for nearly three years, including as head of business development from April 2015 to September 2015 and chief manager from January 2013 to March 2015. His responsibilities included monetisation of mobile platforms, managing media and developer partnerships, and driving revenue across digital properties such as The Times of India and The Economic Times.
Earlier, he worked at Brandmovers as head of business development from June 2012 to June 2013, handling digital, mobile and social media marketing solutions, client development and strategic consulting. During this period, he also worked on advertising revenue, brand strategy and CRM-based solutions.
At Inshorts, Thakur’s role focused on revenue strategy, mobile and media partnerships, and growth initiatives across platforms. His profile highlights experience in mobile product management, digital business models, partner ecosystems and revenue expansion in high-growth environments.
