About
Ksana Health is a pioneering digital health company that harnesses the power of mobile sensing, AI, and evidence-based behavioral science to modernize mental health care. Built on rigorous academic research and trusted by leading institutions across the US, UK, Australia, and Europe, Ksana offers two flagship products. EARS (Effortless Assessment Research System) is the most advanced continuous behavioral health and Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA) platform available, designed for researchers and clinical trial teams. It supports passive data collection via smartphone apps, secure cloud storage, participant survey management, a web-accessible data monitoring dashboard, and expert data science services. Vira is a clinical behavior change platform for healthcare practitioners that brings therapy into everyday life. It provides objective behavioral measurement between sessions, automated just-in-time nudges, adherence monitoring, and a shared insight interface for both practitioners and clients. Vira integrates evidence-based behavioral therapies into a continuous, digitally enhanced care model. Ksana Health serves individual clients, practitioners, healthcare systems, and researchers — reducing cost of care, improving outcomes, saving clinician time, and increasing accessibility to quality mental health support. Its approach is grounded in validated behavioral health frameworks and designed to scale across enterprise healthcare environments.
