About our project

The problem we solve: More that 1M people in US Total Lifetime Costs of MS is $4.1M per person with MS Average Yearly Healthcare Costs for MS from $30K to $100K

About our solution: Our AI and enabling technology will dramatically change the way that clilnical care is delivered to MS patients in the future. Clinicians that may only see a MS patients once or twice a year, through the use of the mobile app, will be able to set up monthly check-in tele-medicine calls with the patients to check their progress. The AI enabled app completely replicates the gold standard in office test with a home based app solution. The AI enabled app can help a MS patient with improvement in their neuroplasticity. The AI enabled app can predict a patient that is progressing from Mild to Moderate to Severe MS. Clinicians can use this data to prescribe different medication and treatment regimens based on this data.

Progress to date:

$1.5M Raised to date
