Our "Why"
In January 2023, we lost a dear friend to depression.
We were left with painful questions. What went wrong? Why do current interventions fail so many?
That experience pushed us to look closely at how broken and outdated most solutions still are. What started as personal loss turned into a long-term commitment to understanding the brain better and building something meaningfully different.
Modern life is moving faster than the brain can adapt. We're living with a prehistoric brain in a digital age, and it's being pushed to operate continuously beyond the conditions it evolved for.
Jobs have become cognitively demanding, and not physical.
Human beings spend less time outdoors than ever before.
Personalised, algorithm-driven feeds keep us distracted all the time.
Time spent with family and friends has been dropping over the last decades.
The usual solutions - another coffee, another holiday, another app - stop working. Old systems and institutions are slow to change.
So we built Mave.
a tribute to a friend whose story inspired us.
Mave is a wearable technology for your brain, built on 25 years of clinical studies and rooted in the neuroscience of resilience. It's an effortless shift to put you back in control of what matters most: Mood, Focus, and Sleep.
Take control, wherever and whenever you need it.
