Driving a seizure free future

Arki has chosen OpenAI’s Whisper as the conversational voice agent for its AI-powered seizure management platform, enhancing multimodal user interaction and accessibility. Whisper, a cutting-edge automatic speech recognition (ASR) model, enables seamless, real-time voice communication, allowing users to interact with Arki’s AI assistant (AA) through natural speech commands.

The integration of Whisper into Arki’s system enhances voice-based health monitoring, emergency response, and personalized seizure management. This ensures hands-free interaction, crucial for users experiencing seizures or those with physical impairments. Whisper’s advanced speech recognition capabilities support over 300 languages, making Arki an inclusive, globally scalable solution for seizure care.

Whisper’s neural network-based speech processing enables accurate voice transcription and comprehension, even in noisy environments. This is critical for ensuring timely and effective communication between users, caregivers, and medical professionals. With Whisper’s robust AI-driven contextual understanding, Arki’s voice agent can interpret complex medical queries, provide personalized seizure insights, and guide users through critical response protocols in an emergency.

Additionally, Whisper’s on-device processing enhances data security and privacy compliance with HIPAA and GDPR regulations. Arki users can trust that sensitive health information remains secure while benefiting from real-time AI assistance.

By selecting Whisper, Arki strengthens its voice-first AI ecosystem, offering users an intuitive, speech-driven interface for seizure prevention, detection, and management. This strategic decision aligns with Arki’s commitment to accessibility, innovation, and proactive healthcare solutions, making AI-driven neurological care more efficient, responsive, and personalized than ever before.

Seizures impose a substantial financial, healthcare, and societal burden, affecting individuals, families, and entire economies. Arki’s research estimates that seizures cost the UK £14.9 billion annually, including £9 billion in indirect costs such as loss of productivity, long-term care, and mental health treatment. Despite 25% of seizures being preventable, emergency medical responses remain high, with 6 million ambulance calls, 3.8 million hospital bed occupancies, and 5.4 million neurological consultations annually.

Beyond healthcare costs, the economic and social impact is profound. People with seizures are twice as likely to be unemployed, leading to 602,000 lost working hours per year. Additionally, 70% of adults with epilepsy experience mental health conditions, while 40% of children with recurrent seizures develop learning difficulties. This results in long-term educational and employment challenges, further increasing reliance on healthcare and social services. Furthermore, 65% of parents of children with seizures develop a mental health condition requiring medical support, compounding the economic and emotional impact.

Arki aims to reduce the societal cost of seizures by implementing a preventative, AI-driven solution that enhances seizure management. Through real-time monitoring of risk factors via wearables and machine learning, Arki predicts potential seizures and prompts users to take proactive measures. By offering personalized interventions, medication reminders, and lifestyle recommendations, Arki can help prevent avoidable seizures, reducing emergency medical visits and hospitalizations.

By reducing seizures by 25%, Arki’s Prevent, Detect, Manage, and Connect framework has the potential to save billions in healthcare costs, increase employment opportunities, and improve mental well-being for individuals and families affected by seizures. Through technological innovation and AI-driven care, Arki is poised to transform seizure management, offering a scalable, cost-effective, and life-changing solution to millions worldwide.
