The voice as a signal of health
A non-profit foundation studying the human voice and building open AI methods that help detect disease earlier and more affordably.
Turning the voice into an accessible diagnostic tool
The human voice carries subtle signals about the brain, lungs, heart and nervous system. We build the science and technology to measure, understand and use these signals — voice biomarkers — reliably in patient care. We do it openly, ethically and in a way others can verify.

Respiratory health
Acoustic features of cough and breath for monitoring lung disease and respiratory infection.
Depression & anxiety
Prosody and vocal dynamics as objective indicators that support mental-health assessment.
Voice science should be open to everyone
We share datasets, models and results so researchers and clinicians worldwide can build on a common foundation.
