Founder, MyNewsBuddy

Surya Manivannan is a driven entrepreneur from the US who moved back to India, dedicated to harmonizing tradition with forward-thinking solutions. His endeavor, NambaDoctor, addressed the conventional reliance of Indian doctors on handwritten notes. By offering a platform to digitize these notes and prescriptions, he effectively streamlined a significant facet of the Indian healthcare system.

Another brainchild of his, PePoll, was designed to capture public opinions in real-time, demonstrating his versatility and proactive approach to genuine feedback.

Now, with Yem, Surya Manivannan's vision expands further. Yem isn't just another news aggregator; it's an AI-powered personal news assistant, seeking to tailor the news-consumption experience for each individual. By conversing about one's interests and crafting updates from handpicked information, Yem stands at the intersection of technology and personalized content.

Consistently throughout his journey, Surya Manivannan has shown a keen emphasis on user feedback, ensuring his solutions resonate deeply with their intended audiences.
