70+ Centers. 1,600+ Experts. 19 Million+ Sessions: Pinnacle’s Journey to Becoming India’s Largest Autism Therapy Network


Hyderabad — What began as a modest center with a mission to help one child has now become India’s largest and most advanced autism therapy ecosystem. Pinnacle Blooms Network, founded less than a decade ago, now operates across 70+ cities, has served over 96,000 families, and has delivered an unprecedented 19 million+ one-on-one therapy sessions.
In a country where neurodevelopmental services were once fragmented, urban-centric, and unaffordable, Pinnacle stands today as India’s first scalable, systematized, and inclusive child development institution.
“We didn’t set out to build the biggest network. We set out to build the one children could trust. And then we scaled trust,” says Dr. Sreeja Reddy Saripalli, pediatrician and founder.
Centers: Pinnacle operates 70+ centers, surpassing the closest Indian peer (10–15 centers) and the global benchmark of 35–50 centers (US-based therapy chains).
Sessions Delivered: Pinnacle has conducted 19 million+ therapy sessions, significantly exceeding the closest Indian peer’s 2–3 million sessions and the global average of 6–8 million sessions.
Active Therapists: Pinnacle employs 1,600+ therapists, far surpassing the nearest Indian competitor’s 250–300 therapists and exceeding the international average of ~1,000 therapists.
Patented Systems: Pinnacle has developed 5+ proprietary therapy systems, while most Indian competitors have none, and global peers typically hold only 1–2 patents, primarily software-based.
Languages Served: Pinnacle offers services in 16 languages, significantly more than the 2–3 languages covered by Indian peers and the global average of 5 languages in multilingual therapy chains.
Pinnacle is not only India’s largest by volume but also Asia’s most technologically integrated child therapy platform.
