Founded by visionary neuroscientists at Princeton University, BlinkLab has carved a niche in advancing mental healthcare through the development of smartphone-based AI-powered solutions for the early diagnosis of autism, ADHD, and other neurodevelopmental conditions.
This strategic listing coincides with a period of heightened awareness and advocacy for autism, amplifying the significance of BlinkLab’s mission.

Our innovative approach leverages the power of smartphones, AI and machine learning to deliver autism screening tests specifically designed for children as young as 18 months old. This will aid healthcare providers to identify these children at a much younger age than presently available providing a pathway to effective treatment and better outcomes for the child and their families. This cutting-edge digital technology is poised to capture the imagination of major industry players, eager to embrace transformative solutions in healthcare."
BlinkLab’s proprietary testing platform utilises smartphones to deliver and analyze stimuli with unprecedented precision. This approach has yielded promising results in clinical trials, demonstrating a high degree of accuracy in diagnosing autism.
