What does Mightier do?

Mightier is a Boston-based behavioral health company founded in 2016. It offers a clinically validated, bio-responsive video game platform designed to help children ages 6-12 develop emotional regulation skills and manage outbursts. The platform originated from research at Boston Children’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School and has evolved significantly since its inception. Mightier combines engaging video games with heart rate monitoring through a wearable device, encouraging children to remain calm as they play. The core offering is a subscription-based app featuring over 25 biofeedback games available on various platforms, including Google, Apple, and Amazon. The program is particularly beneficial for children facing challenges such as ADHD, autism spectrum disorder, and anxiety. Mightier emphasizes family involvement, integrating offline activities to reinforce skills learned through gameplay. The company has reached over 100,000 children and has received positive feedback from families, with plans for future expansion into school systems and partnerships with mainstream game developers.
