REASONS TO INVEST

Reasons Icon

The patented proprietary tech behind Reflex Pro is what’s known as Software as a Medical Device (SaaMD, the company also has a standing license for all of its direct competitor's pupillometer patents). What makes the tool unique is that it doesn’t require any peripheral hardware to obtain valuable neurological vital metrics. ​​Medical personnel can download the software, create an account, and administer testing quickly, using only their smartphone.

Reasons Icon

Reflex and the company’s associated services will leverage momentum and a growing marketplace. Currently the digital health sector is expected to reach $551B by 2027, with a double-digit CAGR of 16.5%.* We are also providing a new rapid scale solution within the market for neurological biomarkers, which was valued at over $6B in 2020, and growing at a rate of 12.9%.*

Reasons Icon

In just a few short years, the Reflex team has quickly established viability, growing the company’s gross revenue by 180+% annually. A major third-party publication with a population over 20,000 proves Reflex as a biomarker of concussion, while also obtaining third-party validation in clinical studies backed by the National Institutes of Health* and the Department of Defense.*

overview


Leveraging Machine Learning and Mobile Tech to Support The Clinical Diagnostic Process


Offering cutting-edge patented technology in an accessible and cost-effective format, Reflex’s testing suite can be used to easily capture neurological vitals. This is critical to diagnosing concussions and a multitude of other medical conditions. Reflex Pro works by integrating with mobile phone or tablet processors to measure the pupillary light reflex and provide actionable metrics that support the diagnostic process. To the best of our knowledge, Reflex Pro is the only clinically validated tool of its kind, collecting anonymized data en masse for a common database, and using it to continually optimize product capabilities.

the problem & our solution


Providing Real-Time Diagnostic Data for Modern Medical Professionals



Within the medical community, functional neurologists are collectively tasked with 71M patient visits each year – encompassing a $360B industry – but they are largely operating without access to objective neurological vitals (source). These clinicians are often the first to diagnose and treat concussions among other neurological disorders, but the lack of rapid testing and quantitative data makes it difficult to give patients accurate assessments of their injury and recovery status. 



To solve this systemic need, Reflex has developed a patented 5-second neurological vital testing suite that allows practitioners to instantly access meaningful neurological metrics. Reflex Pro is easy to implement within any medical practice via a simple tiered subscription model for unlimited testing. In independent clinical studies our system has been proven effective as a biomarker of concussion (source), scoring higher than all other adjacent technologies evaluated (source). Meanwhile, additional research demonstrates that it may be a valuable asset in other diagnostic capacities, such as assessing opiate withdrawal, autism, and Parkinson's.

the market & our traction 


A Proven Business Model Supported By Sound Concussion Science 


According to a recent FDA survey, the average cost to bring a middle-regulated, pre-revenue product to market is $31M (source), yet the Reflex team has been able to build, launch, and scale Reflex through its early adoption phase, as a medical device, with a starting investment of just over $900K.  



Milestones reached within our first two years as a company includes over 210 clinics and 30K patients served, with a customer retention rate of 96% and 90% gross revenue growth in 2021. The company has been able to secure patent protection for its ability to carry out testing on all mobile devices. Additionally, our company has a standing license for all of our direct competitor's pupillometer patents. Reflex's model includes proprietary machine learning technology for efficient, low-error processing.



Most excitingly, Reflex Pro has achieved proof-positive status through third-party clinical studies. The technology was featured in the largest neuro-pupillometric study ever conducted in 2021, with a patient population of over 20K (source), and was selected for a Department of Defense study in a 2-year concussion management study after receiving the institution's highest evaluation score (source).

why invest


Enlightening Medical Professionals On a Global Scale 




For centuries, doctors have understood the connection between the pupils and neurological health (source), yet it’s taken hundreds of years for innovation to catch up and provide the proper support tools. Having developed a tech-enhanced solution that we hope will serve over 5 million physicians, nurses, athletic trainers, physical therapists, and chiropractors worldwide, Reflex is seeking to lead the way and ready to embark on our path to expansion. Our ten-year vision entails scaling our sales and staff, finalizing Class II clinical clearance with an indication for concussion, and positioning the technology as an industry standard.

What Your Investment Really Buys: A Letter From the CEO 📬

Dear Investor,

First, thank you for your consideration and taking the time to read this brief note. Our team greatly appreciates the community we've been able to build on StartEngine whether you're a watcher, interested party, browser, or current investor, we're glad you're here. 

Reflex over the years has become something much more than a clinical tool. It's sending a message to the market that digital medical devices can break the mold of dermatological mole checkers or heart rate monitors. We've made, tested, sold, and grown something that pushes the limits of what we thought a medical device "is". Reflex truly sets the precedence for what a software as a medical device (SaaMD) should aim to be. Thankfully, we have more work to do in exercising this precedence and to help more people. 

"What does my investment buy me?", is one of my favorite questions I've been asked. Some say objectives (e.g. 1,000 number of users). Some say runway (e.g. two years). And many don't really even have an answer. Hell, some even blurt out "Shares!", but I digress. 

My preference is to be explicit when addressing this line of questioning. Users, runway, shares, etc. are all things that come with investment but it isn't what your investment buys.

Your investment buys action. 

It purchases accessible neuro-healthcare for many that would ultimately struggle to obtain. 

Investment in Reflex buys progress towards better outcomes for at least one patient that truly needs it

These are the most important tenants of how and why we operate. If this attitude aligns with your interests then we would love to have you along for the ride. Invest today to help make a difference tomorrow. 


Cheers,

Kurtis Sluss, CEO

Only 5 Days Left. Can I answer your questions about Reflex? 🙋‍♀️🙋🙋‍♂️

Any questions I can answer regarding investing in Reflex in these last five days?

We've been active in the chat on StartEngine and strive to answer questions within just a couple of hours. Drop us any questions you may have over the next 5 days and we'll be sure to answer them! Here are some common questions we typically get?

  1. Q: How accurate is Reflex? A: Since Reflex is a regressive tool we tend to think about it as an error rate. Reflex touts a less than 3% mean absolute error as compared to real annotated datasets our team has rigorously vetted.
  2. Q: Who can use Reflex? A: All medical professionals who see value in obtaining neurological data for patient vitals and monitoring. It's clear that nearly all medical professionals can benefit from Reflex even though we target a few key audiences as part of our go-to-market strategy.
  3. Q: How much does it cost? We're a fraction of the cost of our direct competitors that use capital equipment to service the market. Priced at $400/yr starting, all users can feel economic relief using Reflex. P.S. that's for unlimited testing AND there's no single use plastics!

"Brightlamp’s Reflex app is a clinical decision support tool for helping manage concussions and vision rehabilitation, among other things. Using an iPad’s or iPhone’s camera, the mobile app measures how a person’s pupils react to changes in light. Through machine learning analysis, the imagery gives practitioners data points for evaluating patients. Brightlamp sells directly to health care providers and is being used in more than 230 clinics. Clinicians pay a $400 standard annual fee per account, which is currently not covered by insurance. The Department of Defense has an ongoing clinical trial using Reflex."

Richard, Thank you for your question; we get this one often. At the moment we are iOS only for product quality and quality control reasons. Apple's products are fairly standardized which makes compliance and revisions easier to manage for our organization. Additionally, just under 80% of doctors own an iPhone with most all clinics having iPads available. So, we made the business decision to focus on iPhone and iPad as we scale in the clinical market. Finally, and apologies for burying the lead, we do expect to release an Android version of Reflex in the coming years. The DoD will require an Android deployment which we're considering as part of work with their funded study once it goes to the procurement phase. Long story short, it's in our product roadmap but not urgent for our sales goals this year and next, but we'll need it for international and government markets. Our estimates show it should only take about 4 months to roll out Reflex for Android. Hope that helps and please let me know if I can offer any further clarifications. Cheers, Kurtis Sluss, CEO Reflex

Richard, You read our minds! In fact, one of the first use cases we deliberated was a "breathalyzer" for your phone. We ended up not pursuing this avenue for liability reasons. However, we are actively working on a version of this for Law Enforcement. Did you know that less than 1% of Law Enforcement have Advanced Impairment Detection Training? This elite group is commonly referred to Drug Recognition Experts (DREs) and one of our goals over the next two years is to support the expansion of advanced recognition techniques. Thank you for your comment and please let me know if you have any other questions! - Kurtis Sluss, CEO

Latoya, Thank you for your question. The Reflex product suite is a Class I 510(k) Exempt medical device under 21 CFR 886.1700. This means that we don't need FDA Approval or Clearance to sell our current product. However, part of the fundraise is for seeking an "indication for use" with the FDA for mTBI (concussion). An indication for use is a labeled use case reviewed by the FDA. We have an established predicate device for this indication which means we only need 510(k) Clearance. This is a much faster and easier way to label our product for an indication as compared to a De Novo application. Please let me know if I need to offer any further clarification or if you have any other questions. Thank you, Kurtis Sluss

Ajith, thank you for your comment. Here are my responses: 1) We use parameters extracted from the pupil's waveform to correlate to different disease states and assign risk factors. These are driven by the autonomic portion of the nervous system which is a reliable source of gauging neurological activity. You can even deduce stroke location in the brain by logically comparing both eye's results. This is a great review from the Journal of Biomedical Informatics last year (2021) that assigns pathology for 46 conditions: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1532046421000861 2) We have pricing options that range from $400/yr to $1,200/yr (mostly available as well) with varying features and add-ons (even including Telehealth testing!). This includes unlimited testing for all customers. We have a clear reimbursement path with this raise which will shift our revenue model to a more traditional pay-per-test medical device model. 3) Exit options lean to acquisition in this space with clear paths to both mobile and med-device manufacturers. We're expecting a ~5 year play with example acquirers being Medtronic, GE Health, Canon, etc. 4) Yes, we're very aware of HitCheck and they have a great combination product. There are many technologies that use combination qualitative assessments to determine concussion scores. We're very different as we're a reflexive biomechanical response that can be used for so much more than concussion. In fact, we scored higher than HitCheck (and all other technologies) when being evaluated for the DoD funded study because we're a faster, easier, and more quantitative tool. Let me know if I need to follow up or address any of these topics with more detail. Thank you, Kurtis Sluss, CEO

FAQS

With Regulation A+, a non-accredited investor can only invest a maximum of 10% of their annual income or 10% of their net worth per year, whichever is greater. There are no restrictions for accredited investors.

With Regulation Crowdfunding, non-accredited investors with an annual income or net worth less than $124,000 are limited to invest a maximum of 5% of the greater of those two amounts. For those with an annual income and net worth greater than $124,000, they are limited to investing 10% of the greater of the two amounts.

At the close of an offering, all investors whose funds have “cleared” by this time will be included in the disbursement. At this time, each investor will receive an email from StartEngine with their Countersigned Subscription Agreement, which will serve as their proof of purchase moving forward.

Please keep in mind that a company can conduct a series of “closes” or withdrawals of funds throughout the duration of the campaign. If you are included in that withdrawal period, you will be emailed your countersigned subscription agreement and proof of purchase immediately following that withdrawal.

StartEngine assists companies in raising capital, and once the offering is closed, we are no longer involved with whether the company chooses to list shares on a secondary market or what occurs thereafter. Therefore, StartEngine has no control or insight into your investment after the close of the live offering. In addition, we are not permitted to provide financial advice. You may want to contact a financial professional to discuss possible investment outcomes.

For Regulation Crowdfunding, investors are able to cancel their investment at any point throughout the campaign up until 48 hours before the closing of the offering. Note: If the company does a rolling close, they will post an update to their current investors, giving them the opportunity to cancel during this timeframe. If you do not cancel within this 5-day timeframe, your funds will be invested in the company, and you will no longer be able to cancel the investment. If your funds show as ‘Invested’ on your account dashboard, your investment can no longer be canceled.

For Regulation A+, StartEngine allows for a four-hour cancellation period. Once the four-hour window has passed, it is up to each company to set their own cancellation policy. You may find the company’s cancellation policy in the company’s offering circular.

Once your investment is canceled, there is a 10-day clearing period (from the date your investment was submitted). After your funds have cleared the bank, you will receive your refund within 10 business days.

Refunds that are made through ACH payments can take up to 10 business days to clear. Unfortunately, we are at the mercy of the bank, but we will do everything we can to get you your refund as soon as possible. However, every investment needs to go through the clearing process in order to be sent back to the account associated with the investment.

Both Title III (Regulation Crowdfunding) and Title IV (Reg A+) help entrepreneurs crowdfund capital investments from unaccredited and accredited investors. The differences between these regulations are related to the investor limitations, the differing amounts of money companies are permitted to raise, and differing disclosure and filing requirements.

SE Secondary facilitates the trading of securities by matching orders between buyers and sellers and facilitating executions of trades on the platform. By contrast, under SE BB, SE Primary assists with the facilitation of a potential resulting trade off platform including, by among other things, approaching the issuer and other necessary parties in relation to the potential transaction. The term “Extended”, when used in relation to transactions on SE Marketplace denotes that these transactions are conducted via SE BB, and that these transactions may involve longer processing times compared to SE Secondary for the above-stated reasons.

Even if a security is qualified to be displayed on SE Marketplace, there is no guarantee an active trading market for the securities will ever develop, or if developed, be maintained. You should assume that you may not be able to liquidate your investment for some time or be able to pledge these shares as collateral.
