About A4i

We make health data useful.

A4i is a platform for supporting people with complex behavioural and mental health conditions. Currently, A4i is being used to target the recovery processes in psychosis and schizophrenia, and newly in opioid use disorders

The mental health landscape is in the middle of an awakening. With a focus on inclusion, support and healing, A4i has tremendous possibilities to improve the lives of millions of people living with complex mental health challenges while reducing their strain on the healthcare system.
