# Arctop

> Arctop is a cognition company building software that decodes the human brain. Its AI platform translates electrical brain-activity signals from everyday wearables - headbands, earbuds, and VR/AR headsets - into real-time, actionable insight about focus, emotion, intention, and memory. Founded in 2016 by neuroscientist Dan Furman and engineer Eitan Kay, Arctop licenses its non-invasive brain-decoding software to developers and enterprises across health, entertainment, education, and government, positioning itself as the intelligence layer between brain-sensing hardware and the applications that use it.

- **Founded:** 2016
- **Headquarters:** Los Angeles, California, United States
- **Founders:** Dan Furman (Co-Founder & CEO), Eitan Kay (Co-Founder & CTO)
- **Team size:** ~15 employees
- **Products:** Neuos, Neuos Eureka, Brain-decoding API / SDK
- **Notable:** Closed a $10M Series A in October 2023 co-led by Fifth Growth Fund and Supermoon Capital., Founders' lineage includes prior work on Stephen Hawking's BCI communication technology., CEO Dan Furman was first in the world to demonstrate EEG-based decoding of imagined individual finger movements from scalp sensors during his PhD at the Technion.

## Products & services

- **Neuos** — A real-time software platform that decodes electrical brain activity into high-resolution maps of feelings, reactions, and intentions. Neuos sits as an intelligence layer between brain-sensing hardware (EEG headbands, earbuds, VR/AR headsets) and applications, exposing mental states like focus, stress, learning, and confusion via software.
- **Neuos Eureka** — An on-demand web platform that applies Arctop's brain-decoding technology to give professionals in entertainment and media research-grade analytics about how audiences feel and respond - moment by moment.
- **Brain-decoding API / SDK** — Licensed software that lets enterprise developers build user-centric applications such as personalized skill training, assistive communication, and emotion-adaptive experiences, while keeping users in control of their data permissions.
