Summary
Dr. Presso is a Seoul-based mentaltech startup founded in March 2022 that builds EMA-based AI precision diagnostic software for mood disorders and a consumer-facing app called 'Ma-eum Convenience Store' for personalized mental care. The team, led by CEO Dr. Jeong Hwanbo and co-founder CMO Shin Da-woon, combines clinical psychiatrists and digital health specialists and developed text- and voice-based depression algorithms that the company says now exceed 90% accuracy. The app offers CBT-based personalized journaling with psychiatrist comments and the company has run pilots with local health centers and senior welfare organizations. Dr. Presso raised seed TIPs investment from Infobank in 2023, was selected for Chung-Ang University Campus Town, and is preparing follow-on funding and further R&D collaborations.
