Indian Teen Creates AI App to Detect Heart Disease

Indian Teen

Gofrixty [31 August 2025] – 14-year-old Indian-origin student Siddharth Nandyala has built an artificial intelligence app to help diagnose heart disease in just seven seconds, the media has reported. Based in Dallas, Siddharth is certified by Oracle and ARM, who certifies him as not only the worlds youngest AI-certified professional. He created the app to help make early detection of cardiovascular problems fast, affordable and widely available — particularly where conventional medical tools may be in short supply.

Users put their phone on their chest. The app captures heart sounds, drowns out ambient noise and sends information to a cloud-based AI system. The app assesses the pattern of heartbeats in seconds, and signals out any irregularities. In clinical trials, the app was more than 96 percent accurate. It tested more than 15,000 patients in the United States and 700 to 3,500 patients in India. Validation screenings in hospitals as Guntur General Hospital, confirmed its potential as a diagnosis.

Siddharth’s innovation reached the ears of Andhra Pradesh’s Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu and the state’s Deputy Chief minister Pawan Kalyan, who also lauded his creativity and promised their support. Even if it lives up to its potential, Circadian AI is not intended to replace ECGs or echocardiograms, Siddharth points out.

Apart from healthcare he is the founder of STEM IT – a tech startup in the field of STEM education. He would like the app to evolve into a tool to identify lung diseases down the road. He is passionate about leveraging AI and innovation to save lives — a testament to the fact that a teenager’s vision can result in real, meaningful, global impact.
