FAQ.
The honest version.

A daily companion that uses 3,000 years of Ayurvedic wisdom to build a personal lifestyle plan for your dosha. Quiz, food guide, meditations, programmes, and Vaidya (the AI companion) — all in one app.

Both, on purpose. The framework is classical Ayurveda — dosha, season, agni. The companion is an LLM that has been narrowly trained on these sources and your own data. The AI never invents protocols; it reads them from the canon and applies them to you.

A small team of engineers and designers, led by founder Ganesh Kompella. Vaidya's guidance is independently reviewed for classical accuracy and safety by Dr. Sheetal Rajput, BAMS — an Ayurvedic Medical Officer with four years of clinical practice.

The quiz produces a dosha blend, not a single label — most people are 60/30/10 across two doshas, and the recommendations work from the full ratio, not a tag. About 17 questions plus a short safety check, three minutes. No signup until you save your result.

No. You can browse essays, the 300-food guide, and the meditation library without it. The quiz unlocks personalisation.

Anytime. Your body shifts with age, season, and stress — we recommend retaking every six months, or whenever something feels off.

Your AI companion — three layers of memory, the 48-hour rule, plain-English articles. Every protocol Vaidya gives is reviewed for classical accuracy and safety by Dr. Sheetal Rajput, BAMS — an Ayurvedic Medical Officer with four years of clinical practice. Vaidya itself is an AI companion and offers wellness guidance, not medical diagnosis.

Yes — three layers: session memory (this thread), profile memory (dosha, allergies, preferences), and event log (everything you have tried in the last six months).

If you go quiet for 48 hours, Vaidya pauses outreach. No streak guilt, no notification pile-up. When you come back, it picks up exactly where you left off.

The quiz, the library essays, and the 300-food guide are free to browse. Personalised arcs, Vaidya chat with memory, and meal plans are part of the membership — there's no permanent free plan, but every membership starts with a 7-day free trial you can cancel anytime.

$19.99/month or $199.00/year. About $16.58 / month, billed once a year. Same features either way; the annual plan saves ~17%, and every plan starts with a 7-day free trial. In India, membership is ₹999/month or ₹9,999/year via the App Store or Play Store. Store prices can vary by country.

Yes. Students, healthcare workers, and chronic-illness patients can apply for full membership at no cost.

No, and we would be worried if any app told you otherwise. InnerVeda is a daily companion for lifestyle, food, and practice. For diagnosis or medication, see a qualified practitioner. Vaidya will tell you the same.

Many practices are safe in pregnancy. Many are not. We flag every protocol that needs practitioner approval and Vaidya will not recommend without checking. Always discuss with your OB-GYN first.

No. Your data is used only to personalise your own experience. We never sell, share, or train external models with your conversations.
