According to BGR , although he is still at an age when many of his friends are absorbed in books, 14-year-old Siddarth Nandyala, from Anantapur city (India) and currently living in the US, has created a potential medical breakthrough with the 'Circadian AI' application.
The app is capable of detecting early signs of cardiovascular disease in just seconds using a smartphone. The innovation promises to be a powerful tool for early intervention, especially in areas with limited healthcare.

Cardiovascular disease is the world's leading cause of death, but early symptoms are often missed because diagnosis requires invasive, expensive tests that are not always readily available.
Recognizing this problem, Nandyala developed Circadian AI as a low-cost, non-invasive screening solution. According to Smithsonian magazine , the app uses a smartphone’s microphone to record the user’s heartbeat. The audio is then processed using advanced noise-canceling technology and analyzed in the cloud by a machine learning model.

In just seconds, Circadian AI can identify abnormalities related to arrhythmia, heart valve problems, early-stage heart failure, or coronary artery disease. The results are presented in a summary format, highlighting any suspicious areas and recommending the user to undergo further testing if necessary.
Nandyala's groundbreaking technology has been tested on over 15,000 patients in the US and India, including trials at Guntur Government General Hospital, where Siddharth personally demonstrated the app's efficacy.
Certified by Oracle and Arm as the world's youngest AI certified professional, Nandyala's achievements have caught the attention of leaders.
Andhra Pradesh CM Chandrababu Naidu recently met Siddharth, applauded his innovation and assured the government's full support for his continued journey in the field of AI and healthcare technology.
Deputy CM Pawan Kalyan also extended his congratulations, recognizing Siddharth as a shining example of how young minds can harness technology for the common good.
As AI reshapes the way we diagnose and treat heart disease, Siddharth Nandyala's innovation is not just a breakthrough but a life-saving feat.
While it cannot completely replace specialized medical devices such as electrocardiograms (ECGs), Circadian AI is considered an extremely effective early screening tool. Currently, the app is undergoing regulatory review and clinical validation, and is temporarily only available to medical professionals.
Not stopping there, Nandyala is also planning to expand Circadian AI to detect lung diseases such as pneumonia and pulmonary embolism, also based on audio analysis. The achievement of this 14-year-old boy once again affirms the role and great potential of artificial intelligence (AI) in the medical field, making disease diagnosis easier.
