WinterLight Labs

Seed Round in 2017
WinterLight Labs Inc. is a Toronto-based company founded in 2015 that specializes in developing a speech-based platform for the detection and monitoring of cognitive and mental diseases, including dementia and Alzheimer's disease. The company's innovative AI technology analyzes natural speech samples to quantify various speech and language patterns, enabling the accurate assessment of cognitive health. By utilizing a brief one-minute speech sample, WinterLight's platform can characterize aspects such as lexical diversity, syntactic complexity, semantic content, and articulation, effectively capturing the speaker's cognitive state. This diagnostic tool has significant applications across clinical trials, long-term care, primary care, and speech-language pathology, facilitating the early detection of cognitive impairment and tracking disease progression.
