From an Idea to a Platform
What started as an idea has evolved into a learning system combining an app, a clinical application, and AI – with the goal of detecting strokes earlier and sustainably protecting lives. Together with partners from medicine, research, and technology, we are developing a scalable solution for use in everyday life as well as in clinical settings.

Recognize the Signs – Gain Time.

On the International Day of Stroke (October 25), we used our video “Recognize the Signs” to raise awareness of the importance of early symptoms. Early detection can be critical – time is brain.

Why Stroke Helper Was Created

Strokes are among the leading causes of long-term disability and death worldwide. Despite modern medicine, the first moment is often decisive – and in most cases, it does not occur in a hospital, but with those affected or their relatives.

This is exactly where Stroke Helper comes in: With the goal of making symptoms visible earlier, simplifying decisions, and gaining valuable time.

TIME IS BRAIN

More Than an App – A Learning System

Stroke Helper has evolved from an idea into a platform that connects three core areas:

  • App – for early detection in everyday life
  • Clinical Pro – for use in clinical settings
  • Intelligence Lab – for the continuous advancement of AI

Diese Verbindung ermöglicht ein System, das mit jeder Anwendung dazulernt und sich kontinuierlich verbessert.

Technology Meets Medical Expertise

The development of Stroke Helper takes place in close collaboration with medical professionals. Data is not only analyzed, but also reviewed and evaluated by physicians and experts.

This creates a system that combines artificial intelligence with human expertise – forming the foundation for trust, quality, and clinical validation.

Our Mission

Wir denken Stroke Helper nicht als einzelne Anwendung, sondern als Teil einer zukünftigen digitalen Gesundheitsinfrastruktur. Unser Ziel ist es, eine skalierbare Lösung zu schaffen, die:
  • im Alltag unterstützt
  • im klinischen Umfeld eingesetzt werden kann
  • und langfristig in bestehende Gesundheitssysteme integriert wird

Jahresrückblick 2025

2025 war für mich mehr als nur ein Jahr – es war der Moment, in dem Stroke Helper wirklich begonnen hat, real zu werden.

Ein medizinisches Thema wie den Schlaganfall anzugehen, ist herausfordernd. Genau das hat mich jedoch motiviert. Zwischen Schule, Recherchen und vielen Gesprächen drehte sich alles immer wieder um eine zentrale Frage: Wie kann man schneller helfen, wenn jede Minute zählt?

Dieser Jahresrückblick zeigt, was entstehen kann, wenn Neugier auf Verantwortung trifft, aus einer Idee ein Ziel wird und aus einem Traum ein echtes Projekt wächst.

How the Idea Came About

However, the human brain has always fascinated me:
  • How are signals transmitted?
  • How does our brain store information?

In July 2024, I attended the Long Night of Science at Saarland University Medical Center in Homburg, where I joined a lecture on strokes by Mr. Helwig (neurology specialist). That’s when I realized how fascinating and important this topic is – and that’s how the idea for my app, Stroke Helper, was born.
