Cent, a preventive health intelligence company, has raised $15 million in its Series A round, including equity and debt, led by Blume Ventures and existing investor South Park Commons.
The round also saw participation from individual investors such as Arun Sarin, former CEO of Vodafone; Srinivas Narayanan, former CTO (B2B) of OpenAI; Sharath Narayana, Krishna Sridhar and Aprameya Radhakrishna.
The funding will go into this R&D and into growing Cent’s AI, engineering and clinical teams.
Founded in 2025 by Shashank ND, founder of Practo & OneFlow Holdings, Anshu lKhandelwal and Arpit Garg to build a vertically integrated preventive health platform that combines purpose-built hardware, AI-driven radiology and diagnostics, and bioinformatics.
Together, these allow Cent to find disease years before symptoms appear and to track eac hmember’s health over time, building towards a future where healthcare is preventive, continuous and personalised.
“We are believers in the Cent’s vision to extend this from India to the world over time and it is in line with our conviction around health tech for a decade now” said Karthik Reddy, Cofounder and Managing Partner, Blume Ventures.
“India’s healthcare system is still built to treat illness, not to find it early. We believe the next shift is preventive care that is precise and accessible at scale. Our first 10,000 scans have shown us how much that shift is needed. This investment lets us go deeper into AI, medical imaging and clinical research, and build preventive health infrastructure in India that can serve the world,” said Anshul Khandelwal, Co-Founder, Cent.
Cent has also acquired the Medsee platform, founded by Chitra Singh, an AI-powered radiology reporting workflow built for qualified medical professionals. The platform drafts structured reports and highlights findings for radiologist review, enabling Cent to deliver faster, more consistent reporting as scan volumes grow
