Imagine how many lives could be saved if an app could detect a heart attack within seconds. Prayers of millions have now come to fruition, thanks to 14-year-old NRI student, Siddharth Nandyala. A young AI enthusiast from Dallas, Nandyala has developed an application which, he claims to have an accuracy of more than 96 per cent.
Recently, Nandyala came to India, and met Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu. During the meeting, the CM appreciated Siddhartha’s work at such a young age, and wished luck for his future.

How Does The App Work?

The Circadian AI helps in recognising early cardiovascular disease detection by using smartphone-based heart sound recordings. It has been tested on over 15,000 patients in the U.S. and 700 patients in India, including at GGH Guntur. The technology is more than 96 per cent accurate in results, said the Andhra CM in his post on X, formerly Twitter.
“This 14-year-old has made detecting heart-related problems easier! I am delighted to meet Siddharth Nandyala, a young AI enthusiast from Dallas and the world’s youngest AI-certified professional, holding certifications from both Oracle and ARM. Siddharth’s app, Circadian AI, is a medical breakthrough that can detect heart-related issues within seconds,” he wrote.
According to Siddhart’s LinkedIn profile, he is the CEO and Founder of Stem-It Tech, a company that exists in Texas, United States. “Welcome to my world of STEM innovation! As the 13-year-old CEO and Founder of STEM IT, I am on a mission to redefine STEM education, making it accessible, engaging, and transformative for young minds,” read his bio.
Mahesh, Siddhart's father is originally from Anantapur, who moved to the US in 2010.
