Axite · Brain monitoring software
Axite builds software that turns consumer-grade EEG headsets and smartphones into reliable cognitive measures. Research teams use our platform NeuroJournal today. The same measurement is being certified for neurological care, starting with epilepsy.

Why Axite exists
Consumer EEG headsets are affordable and good enough to record the brain in daily life. What has been missing is the software that makes their signal reliable outside a controlled lab: noise handling, a way to time-lock brain activity without a task, and algorithms that turn raw EEG into measures a study can use.
That is what Axite builds. Our processing engine cleans consumer-grade EEG, aligns it to real events, and produces cognitive scores such as attention and cognitive load. It is the foundation under every product we ship.
Products
Available now · Research use
A remote EEG research platform. Participants record at home with a consumer-grade headset and their phone. Research teams manage the cohort and receive raw EEG, session data and cognitive scores in open formats.

Available now · For integration
Send recorded EEG to our processing engine and receive cognitive scores back in your own application, dashboard or research pipeline. For teams that already have a recording setup and want validated measures without building the signal processing.

In development · Medical
The same measurement, certified as a medical device for people with neurological conditions and the clinics that treat them. Epilepsy is our first indication.
Read about the medical trackNeuroJournal for research teams
NeuroJournal is for any team that wants to measure cognition over time without bringing people into a booth. Attention and cognitive load are in production. Drowsiness is in validation. Every recording also gives you the underlying brain rhythms, event-related potentials and ERD/ERS.
A short EEG check-up with a consumer-grade headset, guided by the NeuroJournal app. Muse is fully integrated; the platform is hardware agnostic.
Phone taps time-lock the EEG in the background, so participants do nothing extra. Your own events and tasks can be logged alongside.
Noise checks, artifact handling and multimodal analysis run on every session. You receive scores that are comparable across participants and weeks.
Follow the cohort in the research dashboard, export CSV and EDF, work with a BIDS-compatible structure, or pull scores through the API.
Used across research settings
Longitudinal cognition, attention and fatigue in natural contexts. Pre and post measurements around an intervention.
Objective attention and cognitive load during real product use, time-stamped to screens and tasks.
Frequent, at-home cognitive measurement as an exploratory endpoint, delivered as a managed pilot. Research use only.
Cognitive changes in patient populations between visits, with participants recording in their own environment.
Where we are heading
Over 40% of people with epilepsy experience cognitive impairment, and cognitive side effects are one of the main reasons anti-seizure medication gets changed. Today those effects are judged from what a patient recalls in a 15-minute consultation.
Axite is developing NeuroJournal as a certified medical device under the EU Medical Device Regulation (Class IIa) for measuring and displaying cognitive activity. That certification opens the same measurement to people with neurological conditions and to the clinics that treat them, with epilepsy as the first indication.
Built on Leiden University research
Our algorithms are trained on multimodal EEG recorded outside the lab, compared against a normative dataset of healthy participants, and developed with the scientists who published the underlying methods.

Dr. Arko Ghosh
Scientific Advisor. Assistant Professor at Leiden University and the researcher behind the smartphone-tap method Axite builds on.
Dr. Roland Thijs

Data protection is designed into the product rather than bolted on. Your organisation retains ownership of its data, and participants can be pseudonymised at the source.
Axite makes software. Muse is fully integrated today and further consumer-grade headsets are on the roadmap, so studies are never tied to one manufacturer.
Raw EEG in EDF, scores and metadata in CSV, a BIDS-compatible structure and API access. Your analysis stays in your own tools.
