The Ministry of Ayush is advancing the use of Artificial Intelligence across Ayurveda and other Ayush systems through the Ayush Grid digital platform, according to information issued on 19 September 2026. The Ministry said it is exploring AI applications in healthcare, research, education, information services and investment facilitation.
AI services under development
The Ministry said an emerging ecosystem includes specialised AI applications and wider collaborations with national AI initiatives. AI-based chatbots and tools being developed include MAISP, eLMS, e-CHARAK and the ARP Research Assistant.
According to the Ministry, these services are intended for different user groups and activities. The listed applications cover citizens, researchers, students, medicinal-plant trade, yoga and investment. The article does not provide details on the development stage, technical design or public availability of each service.
Yoga and investment tools
The Ministry highlighted Yoga Saarthi as a yoga recommendation AI chatbot. It also described Nivesh Saarthi as an AI assistant for investment in the Ayush sector.
The Ministry said the chatbots demonstrate the expansion of Ayush Grid from digital portals towards interactive, intelligent and user-oriented AI services. It did not provide performance findings or user data for the tools.
Language access
The Ministry is also working with IndiaAI and Bhashini. It said Ayush Grid portals are being made available in 22 scheduled Indian languages.
The material identifies the language expansion as part of the Ministry’s wider work on AI across Ayush systems. It does not specify which portals have been covered or when the language rollout will be completed.
Why it matters
The Ministry’s stated approach combines AI applications for several Ayush-related functions with language access through the Ayush Grid. The available information describes initiatives under development and does not establish their effectiveness or impact.
