Soterya Inc

Soterya Inc. develops AI-powered, robotic medical technologies designed to improve sleep health and nighttime safety. The company's flagship product, Korus, is an autonomous, self-positioning bed system that uses a combination of pressure-sensing surfaces, shapeable parametric cells, and machine learning to detect and adjust body positions in real time. By integrating digital twin simulation and advanced sensors, the technology is built to provide personalized positioning care, which helps support mobility, improve comfort, and address specific medical needs such as sleep apnea or chronic pain without interrupting sleep. The system differentiates itself by performing complex, labor-intensive repositioning tasks autonomously, acting as a responsive tool to enhance rest for individuals with limited mobility.

This technology is particularly critical for vulnerable populations, including elderly individuals and those with serious neurological conditions. A primary focus for Soterya is the prevention of Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy (SUDEP) by identifying when a patient is in a dangerous prone (face-down) position following a seizure and repositioning them into a safe, recovery-oriented posture within a critical three-minute window. Through ongoing clinical partnerships, such as those with Brigham and Women’s Hospital, the company is validating the efficacy and safety of its robotic mattress for both clinical and home-care settings. By combining clinical validation with a user-centered design, Soterya aims to restore independence to patients while reducing the physical and administrative burden on caregivers.
