Problem
Many older adults experience cognitive decline, impacting their attention, memory, and problem-solving abilities, which can reduce their independence and quality of life. Traditional cognitive training methods often require in-person sessions with a clinician, limiting accessibility and affordability for many individuals. Brain games, a popular alternative, lack scientific evidence to support broad cognitive improvement.
Solution
Cognishape provides a personalized, clinically-tested cognitive training program delivered through a user-friendly mobile app. The app presents users with three daily tasks, six days a week, designed to improve specific cognitive domains such as attention, memory, planning, and creativity. Tasks are presented in a chat format, making the experience intuitive and engaging, similar to interacting with a friend. By bridging the gap between clinical cognitive training and accessibility, Cognishape empowers older adults to maintain and enhance their cognitive function from the comfort of their own homes.
Target Audience
Cognishape primarily targets older adults who are looking to proactively maintain or improve their cognitive function, as well as individuals seeking accessible and affordable alternatives to traditional cognitive training methods.
