Shruti Basu โ Co-Founder
Iโm ๐ฆ๐ต๐ฟ๐๐๐ถ ๐๐ฎ๐๐ โ a technologist by training, a mental health advocate by purpose, and the co-founder of Souloxy, a platform dedicated to emotional and mental well-being. With over two decades of experience in the tech industry, Iโve led and contributed to building scalable, user-centric solutions that solve real-world problems.

But even as I grew in my career, I was always driven by one question: How can we use technology to truly improve peopleโs lives? This question became deeply personal when I experienced firsthand the emotional challenges of motherhood and realized how overlooked mental health still is โ especially for women during life transitions. Thatโs what led me to start Souloxy โ a platform where innovation meets empathy. To build something truly meaningful in this space, I knew I had to go beyond tech and understand the science of the mind. So, I pursued: ๐๐ถ๐ฝ๐น๐ผ๐บ๐ฎ ๐ถ๐ป ๐๐ผ๐๐ป๐๐ฒ๐น๐น๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐ฆ๐ธ๐ถ๐น๐น๐ โ ๐๐ฎ๐ป๐ท๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ฎ ๐๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ฑ๐ฒ๐บ๐ ๐ฃ๐ฟ๐ผ๐ณ๐ฒ๐๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป๐ฎ๐น ๐๐ถ๐ฝ๐น๐ผ๐บ๐ฎ ๐ณ๐ฟ๐ผ๐บ ๐๐บ๐ผ๐บ๐ฎ๐๐ฟ๐ถ๐ , ๐ฐ๐ผ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ถ๐ป๐ด: ย ย โข Counselling & Guidance ย ย โข Child and Parent Coaching ย ย โข Relationship & Marriage ย ย โข Psychotherapy ย ย โข Positive Psychology ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐๐ถ๐ณ๐ถ๐ฐ๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป๐ ๐ถ๐ป ๐๐๐ง (๐๐ผ๐ด๐ป๐ถ๐๐ถ๐๐ฒ ๐๐ฒ๐ต๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐๐ฟ๐ฎ๐น ๐ง๐ต๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฎ๐ฝ๐) ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐ก๐๐ฃ (๐ก๐ฒ๐๐ฟ๐ผ-๐๐ถ๐ป๐ด๐๐ถ๐๐๐ถ๐ฐ ๐ฃ๐ฟ๐ผ๐ด๐ฟ๐ฎ๐บ๐บ๐ถ๐ป๐ด) These learnings shaped the way we are designing Souloxy โ not just as a product, but as a compassionate ecosystem offering therapy, self-care tools, AI companions, and expert-led support groups. Today, I build at the intersection of technology, psychology, and purpose โ crafting solutions that help people feel seen, supported, and strong at every stage of their life. If youโre passionate about human-first innovation, Iโd love to connect.
