Future of Prevention: Living Longer, Living Better

Introduction: the Problem

Worldwide, more and more people are being diagnosed as neuroAtypical. Due to lack of specialists, the diagnostic process is long, expensive and consists of lengthy repetitive interviews. Furthermore, because standardised procedures are missing, it is highly subjective.

We are developing diagnostic assistance software designed to support psychological specialists throughout the diagnostic process.


The system consists of three core modules:
– A videobot module interviewing the patient in order to gather data.
– A statistical dashboard presenting the results to the specialist making the diagnosis
– An analytical module evaluating the results using AI

The project is currently in the concept phase, we are actively researching the market in order to identify the exact needs.
After successful evaluation, the next steps will be assessing the regulatory requirements of our product and start working on the MVP.

In the first year, we are going to develop the MVP, and in the following year our milestone is to deliver the first fully functioning version of the product.

Collaboration Offer

At this stage, we are actively seeking experts who share our vision of making neuroAtypical diagnostics faster, more accessible, and more objective.

We invite medical entities, research-scientific centres, and neurodiversity diagnostic specialists to support our research phase by sharing their expertise, participating in interviews, and helping us define clinical and practical requirements. We are also looking to partner with universities and research institutions to strengthen our scientific foundation and co-develop rigorous validation methods.

In addition, we seek legal counsel to assess the regulatory feasibility of the proposed solution.

Once we move on to the MVP phase, we will also need cybersecurity and cloud experts, as well as software engineers, to help us ensure a secure, scalable, and reliable implementation.

In return, we offer expertise in neurodiversity diagnostics, an established professional network, and access to industry specialists and clients. Our team brings over 8 years of therapeutic, coaching, and project management experience within the medical sector, along with collaboration links to NGOs and public institutions.

We have over 10 years of experience in IT, including AI development and technical leadership, and we operate fluently in English, French, and German.

We offer the opportunity to collaborate with a dedicated team driven by a clear mission and actionable plan — combining clinical insight, technological innovation, and a shared commitment to improving mental health diagnostics.
