We are Emotiv

We’re on a mission to empower individuals to understand their own brain and accelerate brain research globally.

Advancing Human Understanding of the Brain

Emotiv is a neurotechnology and bioinformatics company advancing understanding of the human brain through electroencephalography (EEG). Since 2011, Emotiv has helped move EEG brain measurement beyond the lab with wireless EEG devices, intelligent software, and real-world brain data platforms designed to make neuroscience more accessible, scalable, and useful.

Our mission is to empower individuals to better understand their own brain while accelerating brain research, discovery, and innovation globally.

Emotiv’s end-to-end neurotechnology platform transforms raw EEG signals into meaningful insight, supporting applications across neuroscience research, brain-computer interface development, accessibility, cognitive performance, product innovation, human-centered design, and next-generation human-computer interaction.

Building the Operating System for the Brain

Emotiv was founded by Tan Le and Dr. Geoff Mackellar with a vision to bring brain data into real-world settings. For more than a century, EEG was largely confined to highly controlled lab environments. Emotiv helped change that by creating wireless, mobile EEG systems that allow brain activity to be measured in context—during work, learning, interaction, gameplay, creative experiences, and everyday life.

Today, Emotiv is building the operating system for the brain: an integrated ecosystem of hardware, software, data, and intelligence designed to make brain data more accessible, interpretable, and useful across a wide range of applications.

Real-World Brain Data at Scale

100M+

Minutes of Data Recorded

100+

Countries

A core strength of Emotiv is the scale and diversity of its real-world brain data. Emotiv has built a global brain-data ecosystem spanning more than 100 countries and more than 100 million minutes of recorded EEG data, providing an important foundation for machine learning, signal interpretation, and future foundation-model development.

Combined with real-world context, that scale helps distinguish Emotiv’s approach from systems focused only on narrow or highly controlled settings. This expanding data and intelligence layer supports new advances in brain-state modeling, cognitive performance analysis, and large-scale EEG modeling, including work in EEG representation learning.

Responsible Innovation by Design

At Emotiv, progress in neurotechnology must be matched by responsibility. We place strong emphasis on privacy, consent, neuroethics, and user control of data. Emotiv’s approach is grounded in the principle that brain data is deeply personal, and that responsible stewardship is essential to the future of the field.

That includes explicit consent models, ethically sourced data practices, and a commitment to building tools that expand human understanding without compromising individual rights. Beyond product development, Emotiv and its leadership contribute to global discussions shaping the future of neurotechnology, including work with the World Economic Forum, the OECD, the U.S. Government Accountability Office, the Neurorights Foundation, UNESCO, and leading academic initiatives.

We believe responsible innovation requires more than compliance alone; it calls for active participation in the ethical, policy, and governance frameworks that will guide how neurotechnology is developed and used.

Looking Ahead

As neurotechnology, AI, and human-computer interaction continue to converge, Emotiv is focused on building the infrastructure that makes brain data more practical, interpretable, and impactful. From research-grade EEG and developer platforms to consumer brainwear and enterprise insight tools, Emotiv is helping shape a future in which technology can respond more intelligently to human cognition.
