Kandu

BCI-powered stroke rehabilitation and telehealth

Overview

Kandu combines non-invasive brain-computer interface therapy with AI-powered telehealth to support stroke recovery at home. It integrates the FDA-cleared IpsiHand BCI with remote clinical support, enabling at-home rehabilitation guided by clinicians. The merger of Kandu Health and Neurolutions creates a continuum of care from hospital discharge to long-term recovery, linking hardware-enabled therapy with ongoing remote care. The goal is to scale a combined BCI-assisted therapy and telehealth program to set a standard for at-home stroke rehabilitation.

Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • August 2026 publication strengthened IpsiHand credibility with peer-reviewed randomized evidence.
  • The April 2025 merger and $30 million financing funded commercialization and market expansion.
  • Kandu's updated September 2026 site signals active product, clinical, and company momentum.

What critics are saying

  • Kandu depends on one stroke niche and one flagship device, IpsiHand.
  • Reimbursement expansion still stops at Medicare Part B and selective private plans.
  • If the 2026 trial momentum fades, competitors can copy the service wrapper quickly.

What makes Kandu unique

  • Kandu pairs FDA-cleared IpsiHand BCI with telehealth stroke navigation at home.
  • IpsiHand's 2026 randomized trial showed clinically meaningful gains over standard home exercise.
  • CMS reimbursement code plus Medicare Part B access make Kandu unusually commercialized.
