About Synchron
We started the company with a deep belief that brain computer interfaces (BCIs) have the potential to serve humanity with massive positive impact. But we saw that the traditional need for open brain surgery in the OR was going to be an impediment to scale. So we focused on technical breakthroughs that enable electronics to be delivered into the brain that use catheters. Our inspiration was the recent growth in the cardiac field, who now serve over a million stents and a million pacemakers annually, all delivered in the cath lab.
Our vision is to restore, extend and protect human agency.
Release motor models that improve agency for 15 million people with motor impairment.
Release general cognition models that improve agency for 500 million people with cognitive decline.
We believe in the protection of human agency, in disease and in health. This is increasingly relevant as intelligence accelerates around us. This singular focus will enable humans to continue to flourish.
Ethical principles for humanity that guide how we build:
- Agency
- — self-determination
- Freedom
- — cognitive sovereignty and mental privacy
- Flourishing
- — a life worth living
