Rewin Health, a Chennai-based digital therapeutics company, has launched JADHU, an AI-powered daily life-skills platform designed to help differently abled children, teenagers and adults build the skills needed to live more independently.

 

Combining artificial intelligence (AI), virtual reality (VR) and real-time physiological monitoring, JADHU aims to address a critical gap in disability care: the difficulty of translating skills learnt during therapy into everyday life.

 

Clinically validated in collaboration with eight medical institutions, special schools and care organisations, the platform offers personalised daily programmes, simulated real-world experiences and data-driven progress tracking for learners, caregivers and therapists.

 

The launch comes against the backdrop of significant gaps in access to care highlighted by Rewin Health’s statewide study, Mapping the Gap: Differently Abled Care in Tamil Nadu 2026. 

 

Based on responses from 2,027 participants and 27 government interviews, the study found that 61% of families wait more than a year for a diagnosis, 74% face severe financial pressure, 72% lack access to structured therapy, and 83% say gains made during therapy do not carry over into everyday life.

 

Rewin Health says JADHU is designed to tackle these barriers by bringing structured skills practice into the home while giving therapists objective data on a learner’s progress between sessions.

 

"JADHU exists because too many families in Tamil Nadu are told to wait — for a diagnosis, for a therapy slot, for a professional to have the time to see their child," said Vijay Karunakaran, Founder & Chief Executive Officer, Rewin Health. 

 

"Our own study found that 83% of parents say what their child learns in therapy does not carry into daily life, and that 72% of families are not in structured therapy at all. That is not a failure of therapists; it is a failure to give families a structured way to practise. JADHU puts 60 minutes of guided, personalised practice into the home every day, in the situations where independence is actually needed, and gives the therapist objective data on what happened in between. It does not replace clinical diagnosis or professional therapy — it makes both go further."

 

In a major community outreach initiative, Rewin Health announced that 500 differently abled families across Tamil Nadu will receive free access to JADHU, along with support and therapy sessions. The company said the initiative represents a total community investment of ₹3 crore, funded entirely by Rewin Health.

 

The platform is designed for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD) and other learning differences.

 

Rewin Health is also working with healthcare institutions, special schools and government bodies to integrate digital therapeutics into mainstream support systems. Its model seeks to bridge clinic-based care for institutions and professionals with a scalable, home-based offering for families.

 

JADHU combines personalised programmes with a library of more than 200 therapeutic games. Following an initial assessment, the platform generates a daily programme comprising two 30-minute sessions.

 

Its foundational programme targets nine skill domains: cognition, communication, activities of daily living, social participation, visual perception, motor development, focus and attention, sensory regulation, and learning and academics.

 

Beyond foundational skills, the platform allows learners to practise everyday situations through activities of daily living (ADL) modules. These include grocery shopping, travelling by bus, dining out and managing classroom routines, alongside more than 40 additional scenarios. 

 

The simulated environments allow users to rehearse tasks and learn from mistakes without the immediate pressures of real-world situations.

 

The platform supports multiple modes of delivery, from interactive scenarios on smartphones and tablets to 360-degree experiences using the low-cost JADHU Viewer. More immersive VR sessions using Meta Quest headsets are available at partner clinics, hospitals and schools when recommended by a therapist.

 

JADHU also incorporates a wearable sensor that tracks physiological signals in real time to identify signs of rising anxiety. When stress levels peak, the platform adjusts the pace of a session and guides learners through calming and breathing exercises intended to build emotional self-regulation.

 

The platform’s caregiver and therapist dashboards are designed to make progress easier to monitor across home, school and clinical settings.

 

Parents receive updates after individual sessions, weekly summaries covering session activity and anxiety trends, monthly reports across all nine skill domains in shareable PDF format, and six-month before-and-after comparisons.
