BCI startup Neurable looks to license its ‘mind-reading’ tech for consumer wearables
Neurable, a brain-computer interface (BCI) startup, is seeking to license its non-invasive 'mind-reading' technology to consumer wearable companies, aiming to integrate its AI-powered brain-sensing system into products like headphones and headbands. The company, which uses EEG sensors and AI to analyze cognitive performance, recently raised $35 million to scale its commercialization efforts. Unlike invasive BCI firms such as Neuralink, Neurable's approach does not require surgery and emphasizes data privacy through encryption and anonymization. It has already partnered with firms like HyperX and iMotions to test applications in gaming and human behavior research.

BCI (brain-computer interface) technology — in which neural signals are routed from a person’s head to a computer — was once the stuff of science fiction, but these days the technology represents a competitive corner of the tech industry. One of the companies racing to commercialize BCI is Neurable, which this week announced that it’s looking to license its “mind-reading” technology to consumer wearables. Neurable specializes in “non-invasive” BCI, which distinguishes itself from firms like Neuralink—the Elon Musk-founded startup known for inserting computer chips directly into people’s skulls—in that its product doesn’t require users to undergo brain surgery to enjoy its benefits.
