// 01 — The Problem

Bionic hands exist.
Almost no one can use them.

The technology is real. The access isn't. Four walls stand between half a million Indians and a functional hand.

01
Price
Current myoelectric hands cost lakhs — often years of household income. The gap between a cosmetic hand and a functional one is enormous. Nobody has closed it.
02
Comfort
Sockets designed for Western climates fail in Indian heat and humidity. Poor fit is the number one reason people abandon prosthetics entirely — not malfunction.
03
Serviceability
When something breaks, the nearest service centre might be hundreds of kilometres away. Weeks without a hand. No real solution in rural India.
04
Intelligence
Existing devices don't learn. Every user starts from zero. Making a hand truly feel like yours has never been seriously addressed.

// 02 — What We're Building

One product.
Four fronts.

NiVi attacks the problem simultaneously — not just on price, but on every dimension that makes existing solutions fail real people.

◈
Price
A fully functional myoelectric hand at a fraction of existing market prices. Accessible to the people who actually need it.
Disrupted
⬡
Comfort
Socket architecture engineered from scratch for Indian climate conditions. Research-backed. Designed to be worn all day.
Engineered
⟳
Serviceability
Modular. Repairable anywhere. Designed so that a breakdown doesn't mean weeks without a hand.
Solved
◎
Intelligence
A hand that learns you. EMG-driven personalisation that improves over time. The more you use it, the more it feels like yours.
Pioneered

// 03 — The Horizon

Prosthetics is
where it starts.

NiVi is building more than a hand. The foundation being laid today is infrastructure for something much larger.

● Now
Accessible Bionics
Functional myoelectric hands for the Indian market. Affordable. Durable. Intelligent. Getting hands to the people who need them.
Human-Machine Interface
The data and models built through real-world prosthetic use become the foundation for a broader human-machine interface platform. ████████████████████████████████
◌ Further
Beyond the Hand
The boundary between human capability and machine capability, redefined. ████████████████████████████████████████████████

// 04 — About

Built by someone
who can't stop.

NiVi is a founder-led early-stage MedTech startup building the next generation of accessible upper-limb prosthetics for India — and laying the groundwork for the future of human-machine interfaces.

We believe the technology to give people their hands back already exists. It's just never been built for the people who need it most. NiVi is fixing that.

Currently in prototype development. Research-backed. India-first. Built to last.
