Company overview

Khyaal is a digital super-app designed specifically for senior citizens (typically 55+ years) to help them engage, learn, transact, and stay socially active in the digital age. It was founded in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic to address rising loneliness and digital isolation among older adults. The platform builds a community ecosystem where seniors can participate in interactive games, live sessions (like yoga, music, workshops), educational content, and social activities to improve their physical, emotional, cognitive, and social well-being. Khyaal also provides practical digital tools and services: a Visa-powered Khyaal Card for secure online/offline payments with built-in cybersecurity safeguards, on-demand assistance (e.g., cab bookings, bill payments, medical or travel services), curated travel plans, and exclusive offers or discounts designed for senior needs.
