Landmark Study Demonstrates Clinical Validation of Aiberry Powered Mental Health Assessments. Read the release HERE.

A Dedicated Pursuit to Improving Mental Healthcare

Aiberry was born from the understanding that current mental health screening practices are tedious, subjective, and error-prone, cutting into valuable time that healthcare providers could be spending on treatment and critical patient care. Based on two decades of research and innovative technology, Aiberry is increasing access to care, enhancing early detection, and enabling healthcare providers to make sound clinical decisions and achieve better treatment outcomes for their patients in real-time.

THE BEGINNING

Our Origin Story

Two decades of research bundled into one powerful solution that helps providers better serve their patients. 15 years ago, a group of professors and students at Oxford University and University of Paris hypothesized that depression could be detected by analyzing the unique muscles in our face. The hypothesis evolved to consider the insights available from voice and word context analysis. Newton Howard, Soujanya Poria, and Navonil Majumder have spent the better part of the 2000s perfecting this science into a proven methodology for detecting mental illnesses. This methodology is the basis for Aiberry’s patented AI and our inspiration for putting an impactful 21st century tool into the hands of healthcare providers.
