Meet Karin Andrea Stephan – a serial entrepreneur, community leader, and startup coach. She has deep domain expertise in tracking mental health and in 2021, Karin Andrea co-founded Earkick to build the world’s first data-driven mental health tracker via multimodal sentiment analysis of physiological biomarkers.

We at LDV Capital are excited to partner and invest in the brilliant Earkick team in helping proactively prevent mental health problems with the first real-time data-driven mental health tracker. Their deep tech artificial intelligence platform will analyze health markers, vital signs, voice and sentiment analysis to detect early signs of anxiety, depression and other mental health problems. We see a tremendous value in tracking mental health in real-time and believe that Earkick will improve the quality of life for billions of people.
