About
Clinikk's unique full-stack model combines health insurance, teleconsultation and a network of physical centers to deliver primary healthcare at an unbeatable price and quality.
Primary healthcare in urban India is broken, and insurance coverage is still virtually non-existent due to limited government resources and high premiums relative to income levels.
Clinikk's technology connects the dots for patients, providers (doctors) and payors (insurers) to enable unlimited consulations and insurance coverage at Rs. 500 (less than $10) per month for a family.
From the Founder…
Working with Nitin and Cathy has been a phenomenal experience. They were quick to understand the power of the unique full-stack model we are building across insurance and primary healthcare. Every conversation with them - including sharp, constructive feedback - has been a very positive experience.
Nitin has been a firm believer and a most vocal evangelist for us, and as founders, this has given us a lot of confidence. He has great connections and immense respect in the VC ecosystem, with every introduction from him getting us warm responses. Nitin is very generous with his time despite all he has on his plate, and we have never heard a "no" whenever we need his help.
Nitin's ability to crystalize and articulate complex thoughts in a crisp manner is unmatched. At the same time, given his hands-on experience helping build companies at Lightbox, all inputs come with a solid understanding of operational implications.
Over dozens of hours spent with him, this has really helped us articulate our positioning not only to potential investors but also internally as we refine our subscription model.
