Boltt - Amongst 10 of the world’s hottest start-ups

Boltt Sports Technologies makes wearable technology that combines the power of fitness tracking with artificial intelligence. It helps users get health and fitness coaching so they can make the most out of their workouts, recovery periods and nutrition choices.

The wearables, which can be worn together, include connected shoes that capture accurate biomechanical data on running, activity and training; a fitness tracker that records steps, distance, heart rate and other fitness metrics; and a stride sensor, which helps accurately calculate distance and intensity of exercises. The A.I. technology grabs the data and hunts for hidden patterns, which provide actionable insights — meaning the user will receive real-time coaching and personalized guidance on health and fitness choices. The gear is developed in partnership with Garmin.

The company was co-founded by a brother-sister team from Delhi, India. CEO Arnav Kishore was a young, international tennis player before founding two start-ups with CMO Aayushi Kishore, who has a masters in economics from Sri Ram College of Commerce.
