Mightier is an American company which produces a bioresponsive video game platform, also called Mightier, that creates an emotional playground for children.[1][2]
History
Mightier was spun out of Boston Children’s Hospital in November 2016 by a Boston Massachusetts-based company that also goes by the same name.[3] It began as a research program at Boston Children’s Hospital in 2009 and became the independent entity Neuromotion Labs in 2014. The Mighteor product became available in 2017, which was renamed Mightier in 2018.[3] It is highly regarded by parents for children with autism and adhd.[4]
Funding
The Mightier company raised a $1.1M seed financing round led by Founder Collective and Project 11. In June 2018 Mightier announced the closing of another round of seed funding totaling $2.4 million.[5]
Services
Mightier offers biofeedback video games paired with family-coaching services that build the skill of emotional regulation in children 6–14 years old.[6][7]
