We a neurotechnology company building the world's first software brain-computer interface. Our cognitive fitness tracker leverages voice as a biosignal to continuously measure cognitive changes: think Strava for your brain.
Founded by Jiali Zhang, a neuroscientist with a PhD from Oxford who previously decoded memories from neural data, Soma sits at the unique intersection of consumer health, neurotech, and voice AI: three of the hottest categories in technology today. The platform surfaces trends and insights on mental clarity, cognitive load, stress, and more, all through a purely software-based approach that requires no hardware devices.
Soma's mission is simple and ambitious: to make brain health accessible, measurable, and actionable.
We are backed by investors who backed Oura, Canva, Coinbase, and SpaceX at similar stages. Soma is a first mover in this space, building proprietary voice biomarker technology that detects cognitive and neurological changes from speech patterns.
The team is small, deeply technical, and design-forward: currently four people including the founder, operating out of their new office at Levi's Plaza near the Embarcadero in San Francisco.
