We’re Builders at heart
Driven by IMPACT.
Ajinkya and Jonathan met in the Evolution Innovation Lab at the National University of Singapore during their PhDs.
They clicked instantly.
Between them, they created 6 patents.
Wearable Tech, haptics, soft actuators.
Seamless XR initially spun of to commercialize this for XR training.
But in 2024, we pivoted.
Speaking to occupational therapists, we found an enormous practice gap in sensory assessments in data quality and consistently.
First, in stroke.
Then spinal cord injury, nerve entrapment, surgery, and diabetes.
Then, a workflow issue- assessments and documentation is manual.
We found this across public, private, and wellness. In Singapore, Vietnam, India, Australia and the US.
Basically everywhere.
Artemis was born out of this need. Achilles, for the foot will follow. Pythia is our proprietary model, developed on top of this first-of-its-kind objective data, that will enable better prognosis and risk-stratification, saving billions in global healthcare costs due to complications
WE're building the new global standard of care for Sensory assessments.
Mission and Vision
Our Mission
To create a positive impact on human lives and elevate patient outcomes through cutting-edge soft robotic technology designed with seamless user experience at its core
Our Vision
Enabling a future where technology is a healthcare leveler.
Our technology gives everyone access to best quality diagnostics and/or therapeutic tools that simplify care and improve patient outcome
Our Core Values
Risk Taking and ownership
We believe great ideas can come from anyone, regardless of title.
We encourage calculated risk-taking, when coupled with ownership.
Internal Drive
We love crazy, ambitious misfits that don’t need to be told what to do.
Self-driven individuals who think they can change the world.
Skills can be learnt, attitude less so.
We love people who are comfortable being uncomfortable.
Learning requires facing and walking in the direction of discomfort.
Learner's Mindset
