In the fast-changing world of Artificial Intelligence, few young minds stand out like Om Avchar, the founder of HeartEcho — India's first AI-powered emotional companionship platform. Born and raised in Nagpur, Om began his journey as a passionate Computer Science student with a dream to build something that connects emotions and technology.
During his college years, he mastered the MERN Stack, explored AI integrations with OpenAI and Gemini APIs, and soon realized that technology could do more than automate — it could feel. This led to the creation of HeartEcho, a digital platform where users can chat with emotionally intelligent AI companions designed to provide comfort, connection, and friendship.
What started as a side project quickly turned into a viral startup with $1500+ in revenue and thousands of users across India. HeartEcho's unique vision — combining emotional intelligence with conversational AI — positioned it as a pioneer in the AI relationship space.
Before HeartEcho, Om gained experience as an intern at Bluestock Fintech, Next24Tech, and Internship Studio, where he honed his skills in software engineering, front-end design, and data structures. These experiences built the technical foundation that would later power his startup success.
Today, Om Avchar continues to evolve HeartEcho, pushing boundaries in emotional AI and creating experiences that make users feel seen, heard, and valued. His journey reflects the future of India's young innovators — merging technology with emotion to build something truly human.
