TruBrain is developing wearable technology designed to help people manage anxiety and stress without medication.
Its wrist-worn device uses gentle vibrations — or "microsonic waves" — intended to stimulate nerves and influence activity in the brain. The technology is based on vibrotherapy already used in healthcare, with TruBrain aiming to turn it into an easy-to-use consumer wearable for improving mental well-being.
Founded in 2012, the company has spent years developing brain-health products and studying brain activity using neurotechnology.
It's generated $25 million in lifetime sales and raised millions from investors including 500 Startups, Sherpa Ventures, and Brightstone Venture Capital. It's using that experience to make the leap from nutritional products into the larger wearable-neurotech market.
