Jiva.ai is a UK-based artificial intelligence company founded in 2019 that builds multimodal AI systems for healthcare providers. The platform allows clinicians to upload medical imaging data and generate diagnostic AI models without deep technical expertise, targeting use cases such as prostate cancer detection from MRI scans and liver disease diagnostics from CT scans. The company also develops its own proprietary diagnostic products alongside the general-purpose platform.
As of November 2021, Jiva.ai had closed a £1,300,000 seed round at a £4,000,000 post-money valuation and had won £400,000 in non-dilutive UK government grant funding. The company had not yet converted any customers to paid contracts, though three conversions were expected within the following month. Manish Patel, a co-founder and CEO, leads a team of six full-time staff and six part-time consultants, with approximately 13 months of runway remaining.

Founder / CEO
Manish Patel
CEO
Manish Patel is a co-founder and CEO of Jiva.ai, a role he described as one he was reluctant to take, saying his chairman and fellow founders pushed him into it. Patel holds a background in genetics, bioinformatics, and systems biology from his doctoral work, during which he wrote his first lines of code and developed early ideas about merging models to represent complex biological systems. He subsequently spent years working on algorithmic trading teams at investment banks and hedge funds, including Lehman Brothers.
Patel began stepping back from his banking roles around 2014 to explore entrepreneurship, going part-time at that point before committing fully to Jiva.ai in 2019. He was 42 years old at the time of the November 2021 interview. Before Jiva.ai, he co-founded a hospitality software business and held serial CTO roles. Jiva.ai has three co-founders in total. Patel and a university friend of 25 years initially split equity 50-50, and a third co-founder serving as COO was subsequently brought in, receiving an equity stake estimated at 10 to 20 percent. Net worth was not discussed in the interview.

Customers
As of November 2021, Jiva.ai had zero paying customers. Patel stated that approximately a dozen prospects were in pilot or pipeline stages, with three expected to convert to paid contracts within the following month. The conversion criterion is demonstrated value: pilots must show measurable cost savings or operational efficiencies before a healthcare provider commits to a subscription.
Patel indicated that average contract values for the platform would be in the range of £3,000 to £4,000 per month for corporate customers, with academic and research and development clients paying in the hundreds of pounds per month. He acknowledged those figures were forward-looking estimates based on anticipated pricing rather than realized contracts, given the company's pre-revenue status at the time of the interview.
Jiva.ai Business Model
Jiva.ai operates a subscription model with two revenue streams: subscriptions to the general-purpose machine learning platform and subscriptions to its proprietary diagnostic products. Platform pricing is tiered by customer type, with academic and research and development users paying in the hundreds of pounds per month and corporate clients targeted at £3,000 to £4,000 per month.
As of November 2021, the company was pre-revenue with zero paying customers. Monthly net burn was approximately £50,000, with total expenses capped at no more than £100,000 per month, the higher figure driven by sporadic regulatory work. With £1,300,000 raised in the May 2021 seed round, the company had approximately 13 months of runway remaining at the time of the interview. Profitability, gross margin, churn, LTV, CAC, and retention metrics were not discussed, as the company had not yet generated revenue.

WatchJiva.ai Employees & Team Size
Jiva.ai had six full-time staff as of November 2021, supplemented by six part-time workers described as a mix of consultants and board members. Patel said the decision to bring in experienced advisors rather than junior hires early in the company's life was deliberate, and he credited that choice with helping the company survive and secure funding through the COVID-19 period.
Jiva.ai employs approximately 22 people as of 2026, up from 21 in 2023.
