CIONIC Inc. is a neurotechnology company in Scotts Valley, California, founded in 2018 by Jeremiah Robison, that builds "bionic clothing" for people with neurological conditions that affect walking. Its flagship product, the FDA-cleared Cionic Neural Sleeve, combines inertial and surface-EMG sensing with functional electrical stimulation to analyze gait and assist dorsiflexion in conditions such as foot drop, multiple sclerosis, stroke and cerebral palsy. Alongside the consumer device CIONIC operates a research platform — the Cionic Research Kit — offering on-body hardware, iOS and Android collection apps, a web research portal for study and protocol management, a hosted JupyterLab analysis environment, and HIPAA-compliant participant data infrastructure. The company publishes an open-source Python client and command-line tooling for that platform's REST APIs, but the API reference and machine-readable contract itself sit behind a researcher account.
