Modasta.com launches Kannada version of multi-lingual health content platform

India Blooms News Service | | 28 Sep 2016, 07:50 pm
Bangalore, Sept 28 (IBNS): Modasta.com, a multi-lingual health content portal, on Wednesday announced the launch of a Kannada version of the website and app.


The Bangalore based health-tech start-up seeks to fill the gap in the health content space with credible information especially curated by Indian doctors.

Data by Modasta reveals that a record number of 40 percent of Kannada speaking health-seekers access online health content as a first point of reference. Insights also showcase a preference for Kannada health content on topics that include, pregnancy & child care, women’s health, diet & nutrition and skin health.

Modasta boasts of 1000 plus health articles and videos on a wide range of subjects ranging from women’s health to men’s health, wellness, lifestyle diseases, taboo diseases and pediatrics amongst others.

The health-conscious can also monitor their health on the Modasta platform through various health tools that include a BMI calculator, a pregnancy due date calculator and an ovulation calculator.

Bikram Barman, Co-Founder & CEO, Modasta said: “Four months since the immensely successful launch of Modasta.com, which has already started getting 1.5  million plus monthly visitors, I am pleased to announce that we are extending our offering to include Kannada. Our foray into Kannada is going to be beneficial to Karnataka residents who will finally have a platform to access health related content in their own language. Plans are on the anvil to expand into other South Indian languages after the successful launch of Kannada.’’

The Modasta app is available for Android users as well as I phone users under the name ‘Modasta Health’.
