Funny; we've been working on the same thing at iCouch for a while now: real time predictive analytics during a video therapy session.
Funny; we've been working on the same thing at iCouch for a while now: real time predictive analytics during a video therapy session. Even funnier is that the investor community has nearly zero interest in what we're doing. I bet if we built a real-time, gluten free, organic food ordering service, we could raise $500k in about ten minutes. Our problem is determining market size; what's the market size for technology hat can predict severe mental illness situations potentially weeks before they happen? What's the market size for tech that can prevent suicides? Since nothing else like that exists, there's no way to predict how much that would be worth in terms of an investment deck. It's frustrating. The revenue generating side of the business (our SAAS for therapists,) is doing wel enough, but certainly not well enough to be able to subsidize moon shot technology that would actually disrupt mental health diagnosis and treatment. But alas, good to see NPR is giving the issue some coverage. It is insanely frustrating when fundraising worthiness is so tied to how good you can make 10 keynote slides. Changing the world doesn't always fit into bullet points.

There's also simply no good solution for people with mental health issues.
Cravings can be an incredibly helpful indicator that you have an unmet need.
