About Tetricus Labs

Tetricus Labs is a precision psychiatry company. The U.S. spends $225B annually on mental health care – yet 70% of patients don’t recover from their first treatment: driving adverse effects and frustration for patients, and wasteful spend for providers and payers. Our first product, Sigmund.AI, is a machine learning-based patient evaluator that uses novel diagnostic signals to triage and remotely monitor patients in a hospital context. Our platform’s unparalleled breadth and precision positions Tetricus well to become the front door to mental health, helping every patient navigate to the right care for them.
