DaVitri is an automated egg-freezing platform that enables fertility clinics to standardize one of the most technically demanding steps in IVF. It allows both small and large centralized laboratories to process significantly more procedures while supporting nation’s embryologists.
For the first time in India, couples seeking In Vitro Fertilisation (IVF) treatment for conception can rely on a globally preferred, automated egg-freezing technology to enable a successful pregnancy and the healthy birth of their child. Hana Health by DSS Imagetech, a market leader in Molecular Diagnostics, Life Sciences, and Biotechnology, has exclusively partnered with Overture Life, a leading developer of automated IVF technologies and the first company to achieve live births from both robotic fertilization and robotic egg freezing, to bring to India their pioneering automated egg-freezing technology — DaVitri.

Overture Life is the first company to achieve live births from both robotic fertilization and robotic egg freezing. The DaVitri platform is the first to receive regulatory clearance from major authorities in the US, UK and Europe that enables fertility clinics to standardise egg-freezing, one of the most technically demanding steps in IVF. This collaboration introduces automated vitrification platform, DaVitri, into routine clinical use in India, enabling clinics to standardize one of IVF’s most technically demanding steps, expand procedural capacity, and support embryologists amid the country’s rapidly growing fertility demand.
“DaVitri addresses a core bottleneck in embryology that has historically limited both scale and reproducibility. For patients, every IVF cycle represents hope, time, and an enormous emotional and financial investment. The tiniest variations during egg freezing can affect everything that follows. By standardising vitrification under controlled, data-driven protocols, automation improves predictability at the earliest stages of treatment, supporting higher overall embryo yield and reducing the likelihood of repeated cycles,” said Ashim Ghatak, Sr. Vice President, IVF Division, Hana Health by DSS.
Variability in egg freezing and warming remains a significant contributor to inconsistent results and repeated treatment cycles, resulting in an emotional and financial drain for couples undergoing treatment. DaVitri empowers clinics to expand capacity by automating vitrification through a regulated, microfluidic system, reducing variability at the critical egg-freezing stage, supporting a couple’s hope for a child with the most consistent technology available.
“India’s fertility clinics are serving a growing and diverse patient population under intense capacity pressure. DaVitri enables clinics to expand access and scale up while protecting consistency and clinical rigour, without sacrificing the highest standards that families deserve. The collaboration positions DaVitri as a forthcoming, service-supported system for Indian clinics that are seeking to modernize IVF workflow,” said Hans Gangeskar, Chief Executive Officer of Overture Life.
In clinical evaluations, DaVitri has demonstrated measurable improvements in post-thaw embryo development compared with manual methods, while enabling small and large centralised laboratories to process significantly more procedures without increasing staffing. By reducing infrastructure requirements from millions of dollars to a fraction of that cost, it enables smaller clinics and satellite locations to offer advanced services that were previously out of reach.
“Automation in general is the future of IVF procedures, and the microfluidics technology from Overture represents a decisive next step in advancing precision and efficiency in cryopreservation," added Dr. Hrishikesh Pai, Medical Director at Bloom IVF, CEO at WAGO.
