A4i at Plug and Play Silicon Valley

Happy 2025! 2024 was a milestone year for A4i and I thought I’d recap the trip to California in December of last year. The 3 weeks of travel through California was fulfilling, productive and mind-expanding! It all started with the Plug and Play Silicon Valley (SV) Immersion Program.

A4i Selected for Prestigious Startup Immersion Program with Plug and Play Canada and OCIF

A4i (The App4Independence) is proud to announce its selection to join the esteemed Startup Immersion Program, run by Plug and Play Canada in collaboration with the Opportunity Calgary  Investment Fund (OCIF). As part of this program, A4i’s CEO, Amos Adler, will head to Silicon Valley to pitch the company’s innovative solutions at the Plug and Play Tech Center Summit from November 19-21, 2024, followed by additional programming in the Bay Area the following week.

A4i & the impact on the IHI Triple Aim of Healthcare

With recent results coming out of our partnership with Riverside University Health System- Behavorial Health we are reminded of the impact that A4i has on the patient experience. Through the Help@Hand Innovation Project Riverside University Health System deployed A4i to their Schizophrenia patient population.

How A4i helps ease barriers associated with healthcare in Rural America

Our clinical validated features such as Hallucination Tracking, improve health literacy, by giving patients screening tools and preventive
services within the palm of their hand. With greater connected care and coordination A4i has helped achieve a 10% hospital diversion with Riverside University Health System, providing cost containment related to relapse and readmission.

Peer Support ROI

The Benefit-Cost Analysis demonstrated a return of $1.19 per dollar invested in the peer support program. Their analysis included an evaluation of peer support utilization which found that on average patients completed 77 individual hours of peer support services and an average of 4.8 hours of group peer support services.

A4i x Royal x EAHN Collaboration

A4i, a leading digital platform for supporting people with complex behavioural and mental health conditions, completed a one-year evaluation project with The Royal Ottawa Mental Health Centre (The Royal), one of Canada’s leading mental health care and research centres. With funding support from OBIO’s Early Adopter Health Network (EAHN™), A4i and The Royal worked together exploring  the feasibility of integrating the A4i app and clinical portal into clinical practice. The team at A4i along with The Royal’s managers, clinicians and clients supported the implementation of the technology platform within the Ozerdinc Grimes Family Regional Psychosis Clinic.

A4i and CAMH Piloting Digital Platform for Opiod Use Disorder

A4i, a leading digital platform for supporting people with complex behavioural and mental health conditions, has initiated beta testing of A4i-O, their digital platform to support the recovery process in opioid use disorder (OUD). Beta testing is happening in partnership with The Centre of Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH), Canada’s leading mental health and addictions hospital system.
