OUR SOLUTION

Objective, medical-grade, continuous depression severity monitoring to accurately anticipate and validate daily mental health changes for better patient outcomes.
1

Captures Biosignals
Continuously

A medical-grade wearable
designed specifically for mental health.

There are 100+ objective biosignal-derived features connected to mental health, but clinicians do not have the medical-grade tools to make sense of the noise.

2

Analyzes Biosignals
Objectively

Proprietary, AI-powered algorithm
creates a unique patient-specific biosignature to provide patient-specific insights.

Each patient is impacted by each of the 100+ biosignals differently and needs personalized care.

3

PROVIDES MEDICAL-GRADE
INSIGHTS

Medical-grade intelligence reports that show clinicians how patients are really doing between medical appointments.

MYNDBLUE’s continuous monitoring platform allows clinicians to gain a deeper understanding of their patients’ daily depression severity scores (i.e., mental health)—even when they are not in the office; MYNDBLUE supports real-time clinical decision-making inside and outside the clinician’s office.
