Nervio is an Israeli-American digital health company building AIM, an AI-powered intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) system that turns raw surgical signal data into real-time alerts and recommendations. Founded in 2020 by brothers Dr. Omer Zarchi and Nir Zarchi, the company aims to prevent avoidable paralysis and nerve injury during spine and neurosurgery at a time when the number of surgeries is climbing and the pool of expert neurophysiologists is shrinking. Nervio operates from Nashville, Tennessee with an R&D center in Israel, and its technology has been developed with input from dozens of neurophysiologists across more than 1,000 surgical cases.
