What is Kintsugi?
Depression is the leading cause of disability, with 2 out of 5 adults struggling with depression each year in the U.S. Yet, there is still no scalable or universally objective way to identify depression.
Introducing Kintsugi: Kintsugi Voice does not require any specific questions or text and detects signs of depression based on how a patient speaks, not what they say. The result is a scalable, quantifiable and non-invasive tool that accurately screens and stratifies every patient in a telehealth setting for signs and severity of Major Depressive Disorder.
Beam Health and Kintsugi are uniquely positioned to offer a seamless telehealth solution powered by AI that can help clinicians more quickly screen for depression and track impact of treatments. With depression stratification scores produced in under a minute and automatically saved and stored in the Beam platform, we help you spend more time with your patients and less time on administrative work.
