Who We Are

Khyontek AI Pvt Ltd is a research-first AI company based in Guwahati, Assam. We build biological intelligence and regulatory AI systems designed for South and Southeast Asian populations, beginning with the communities of Northeast India who are most underrepresented in global genomic and biomedical databases. Our work sits at the intersection of genomics, clinical AI, and population equity. We believe that AI which cannot recognise your biology cannot serve your health.

Our Mission

"To build foundational biological intelligence systems that are representative of, and accountable to, Asia's diverse populations, beginning with the most underrepresented communities of Northeast India."

Core Values

Scientific Rigour

Reproducibility, transparency, and peer-reviewed evidence are non-negotiable.

Population Equity

We prioritise data from populations omitted by global genomic databases.

Responsible Innovation

Biosafety, data sovereignty, and indigenous knowledge are ethical commitments, not afterthoughts.

Rootedness

Guwahati, Assam is our research context, our community, and our competitive advantage.

Our Focus Areas

We work across biological AI systems, population genomics, clinical data infrastructure, and regulatory AI frameworks specific to India's data governance landscape. Our disease focus includes conditions prevalent in Northeast India and underserved by current research, including vector-borne infections, haematological disorders, and metabolic conditions disproportionately affecting tribal and indigenous communities.
