mental health and neurology space has a massive potential to transform lives, the ET Startup Awards 2024 jury said, as it zeroed in on BrainSight AI as the winner in the Top Innovator category. While space technology startup SatSure was in contention, the potential use of artificial intelligence in reading complex MRI scans and its eventual impact on humans tilted the jury towards BrainSight AI.
“The Top Innovator category gives you a sense about the moonshot ideas that entrepreneurs are chasing… It makes you feel that the world is going to be a better place,” said jury member and Caratlane founder Mithun Sacheti.
Founded in 2020, when the entire health sector was focused on fighting the pandemic, the startup had a tough time convincing hospitals to let it test its hypothesis and explaining the potential upsides of the software to top neurologists in the country.
“When we had started this firm, the idea was to put research around the human brain into practical use, but today that we have been recognised by The Economic Times, it shows that the idea has grown much bigger than the vision we had started with,” said BrainSight AI cofounder Laina Emmanuel. Things are changing, as more doctors are opening up to using these services, and specialised departments in large hospitals are keen to test the company’s systems, said Emmanuel.
