Episode Details

Mave Health, a San Francisco startup, introduces a $495 headset designed to enhance attention, mood, and stress management without FDA approval. The device, called a lifestyle tool, uses gentle electrical signals to stimulate the brain. Founded by Dhawal Jain, Jai Sharma, and Aman Kumar, the company shifted from medical trials to a consumer approach after a personal tragedy. The lightweight headset delivers low currents for 20-minute daily sessions, paired with an app tracking mood, focus, stress, and heart rate variability. Private beta results showed increased productivity and reduced stress in 80% of users. Mave raised $2.1 million in seed funding and plans to ship in the U.S. and India starting April 2023, with observational studies for potential publication this year.
