Yet here is the troubling reality: fewer than 20% of these cases have been formally diagnosed. In some estimates, the underdiagnosis rate reaches as high as 95% in certain populations.

Ramesh, a 55-year-old factory supervisor in Pune, thought his persistent cough was just part of getting older. "I figured it was something seasonal," he recalls. "Everyone around me coughs in winter.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How does the 6-second test work?

A: Sonde Health’s 6-second vocal biomarker test uses artificial intelligence (AI) and advanced audio signal processing to analyze the acoustics of a voice sample for respiratory health indicators. It examines subtle vocal features like roughness, speed of speech, and pause duration. Machine learning algorithms then process thousands of vocal features from the 6-second recording to identify biomarkers for respiratory symptoms, such as shortness of breath, and pinpointing features that change with certain health conditions, like the time between expelling air and the start of audible sound. This analysis generates a relative risk level.

Q: Are you a registered non–profit?

A: Yes. Donations are tax-exempt under Section 80G of the Income Tax Act.

Q: Do you partner with hospitals?

A: Absolutely. We are always seeking clinical partners to provide care for the patients we refer.
