Digital mental health platform MindTalk raises $7.3 Mn from Cadabams Group

The Cadabams Group, a leading mental healthcare institution, has invested $7.3 million (Rs 65 crore) in MindTalk, its recently launched digital mental health platform aimed at becoming a deep-tech agent for mental wellness.

With this move, Cadabams is combining over three decades of clinical expertise with advanced deep-tech, marking one of the most significant technology-led expansions in India’s mental health space.

The funds will be deployed over the next 12 to 18 months to enhance MindTalk’s deep learning capabilities, strengthen its AI infrastructure, and accelerate clinical research integration, the company said in a press release.

MindTalk’s deep agent model integrates large language models (LLMs), conversational AI, and adaptive learning systems trained under the supervision of experienced clinicians. Unlike generic AI wellness tools or self-help chatbots, it delivers clinically grounded, evidence-based guidance aligned with professional mental healthcare protocols.

“With MindTalk, we are building a clinically intelligent digital companion that can bring structured mental healthcare to anyone with a smartphone, without losing the rigor and empathy of real-world therapy,” said Sandesh Cadabam, Executive Director, Cadabams Group.

Cadabams Hospitals provides psychiatric, psychological, and rehabilitative care through a network of 42 centres across India and the Maldives. The group claims to have treated over 275,000 patients to date and plans to scale up to 150–160 centres with 3,500 beds in the coming years. This expansion will be complemented by technology-driven platforms like MindTalk to broaden access to mental healthcare.
