Software Defined Neurology

Quantifying brain function
at scale, from EEG.

Neurometers turns everyday EEG into clinically validated biomarkers of brain function — starting with consciousness in the ICU. Fifteen years of research from the Paris Brain Institute, now deployed at the bedside.

The problem

Neurology still can’t measure brain function at scale.

Molecular markers reflect pathology, not consciousness. Imaging is expensive and episodic. Behavioural tests need a cooperating patient. The result is uncertainty at exactly the moments that matter most — and it is expensive.

30–40%
diagnostic errors

of patients with disorders of consciousness are misclassified at the bedside — without quantified, repeatable measures of brain activity.

~6.2%
trial approval rate

for neurodegenerative-disease clinical trials — driven in large part by poor patient stratification and selection, which shrinks measured effect sizes.

$10B+
lost in failed CNS trials

in late-stage central-nervous-system trials over the last decade — capital erased for want of objective endpoints.

$5–10k
ICU cost per day

across 100k+ ICU beds in the US, where consciousness and prognosis decisions are made with incomplete information.

The platform

One signal infrastructure.
Many clinical outputs.

A SaaS layer on top of the EEG already installed in ~10,000 ICUs worldwide. We transform a low-margin imaging modality into a high-value, decision-driving asset — without adding staff or workflow friction.

01

EEG devices

Vendor-agnostic input, 8 to 256 channels — from ICU monitors to research high-density caps. No new hardware required.

02

Biomarker extraction

Automated extraction of spectral, complexity/entropy and connectivity biomarkers, plus validated cognitive protocols.

→
03

AI / ML core

Multivariate models trained on a proprietary 1,000+ patient EEG database — supervised, interpretable, indication-tunable.

04

Clinical outputs

Reliable, reproducible, actionable readouts of brain function — delivered in the cloud or on-site.

Trained on a proprietary database of 1,000+ patients, validated across centres, at TRL 6 — the first clinically deployed biomarker platform that measures consciousness directly from EEG.

Science & clinical evidence

Where scientific rigor becomes commercial potential.

Neurometers is not an AI claim in search of validation. Every layer of the platform traces back to landmark, peer-reviewed neuroscience — the same work that international guidelines now cite as standard of care. That foundation is the moat, and the map to each new market.

EEG evidence of compensatory mechanisms in preclinical Alzheimer’s disease & A machine learning approach to screen for preclinical Alzheimer’s disease

Gaubert S., Raimondo F., Houot M., et al. — Brain 142(7): 2096–2112 · Neurobiol. Aging 105: 205–216

The same EEG building blocks flagged neurodegeneration in cognitively normal adults from the INSIGHT-preAD cohort — with performance holding down to a 4-electrode setup. The bridge to Alzheimer’s.

Clinical guideline

The European Academy of Neurology guideline recommends EEG-based assessment alongside the clinical exam for disorders of consciousness — noting that bedside evaluation alone can misclassify a large share of non-communicating patients.

Expert consensus

An IFCN-endorsed expert group reviews quantitative-EEG and machine-learning classifiers as a scalable layer for the diagnostic and prognostic evaluation of disorders of consciousness — citing the Sitt (2014) and Engemann (2018) work at the core of the platform.

Applications

One validated core. A pipeline of indications.

Each new indication layers onto the same algorithmic core — expanding the market without multiplying R&D or deployment cost.

  1. Phase 1 · NowDeployed

    Disorders of consciousness

    Objective classification of coma, vegetative and minimally conscious states in the neuro- and general ICU. Deployed today at Pitié-Salpêtrière.

  2. Phase 2

    Alzheimer’s disease

    Screening and disease-progression monitoring from routine EEG — validated on preclinical cohorts down to a handful of electrodes.

  3. Phase 3

    Post-cardiac-arrest & ICU

    Recovery prediction after cardiac arrest and severe brain injury, layered onto the same validated algorithmic core.

  4. Later

    Anesthesia & stroke

    Real-time depth-of-anesthesia feedback and stroke recovery prediction — the platform’s long-tail of indications.

The opportunity

A large market, monetized through recurring software.

Neurometers sits at the intersection of brain monitoring, neuro-ICU care and CNS drug development — a market driven by ICU expansion, an aging population and pharma’s need for objective brain biomarkers.

Initial serviceable footprint

A B2B model built to compound.

  • Monetizes the existing EEG install base — no new hardware to sell in
  • Recurring, high-margin software revenue (target 75–85% gross margin)
  • One validated core; new indications upsell without multiplying R&D
  • For pharma: better patient stratification means smaller trials and larger measured effect sizes

Hospitals & clinics

Installation, optional hardware lease, and tiered annual SaaS or per-assessment fees across neuro-ICU, general ICU, neuro-rehab and neurology clinics.

Pharma & medtech

Objective EEG biomarkers to stratify and select patients at enrolment — reducing the sample size needed and increasing the measured effect size of a drug — plus quantified endpoints for treatment monitoring. Per-study or per-enrolled-patient contracts, with success fees on approval.

Defensibility

Protected by IP, de-risked by a phased path to market.

Defensible IP

  • 5 patent families covering the core EEG biomarker technology
  • Exclusive license to existing & future patents from the Paris Brain Institute
  • 15+ years of peer-reviewed research and publications

Phased regulatory path
