Paradromics is building the brain-data foundation for the next generation of AI models, with regulatory approval (IDE) for human trials imminent—making it one of only two companies worldwide cleared for direct brain interface testing alongside Neuralink.

Founded by Noor Siddiqui, Orchid Health is unlocking a new era of reproductive intelligence through whole-genome embryo screening. By sequencing over 99% of the human genome and applying advanced AI to interpret genetic risk, Orchid enables parents and clinicians to make proactive, data-driven decisions long before birth.

This fusion of genomics and artificial intelligence represents a profound shift—from reactive healthcare to predictive optimization. Orchid stands at the frontier of life sciences, where the code of life itself becomes programmable for healthier generations to come.

Neuma builds sub-20g earbuds that decode silent speech via electromyography (EMG). Their proprietary system, Impulse-1, enables imperceptible, hands-free AI interaction using biological triggers (tongue-tap), offering a private, continuous input channel to LLMs where voice assistants fail.

Oriane is built for brands, media, and creators who need to find videos based on the content. Not just metadata.
