Synchron

Synchron is a clinical-stage neurotechnology company developing an implantable brain-computer interface (BCI). Its flagship device, the Stentrode, is placed in a blood vessel near the motor cortex through a minimally invasive endovascular procedure (via the jugular vein) rather than open brain surgery, letting people with paralysis control digital devices with their thoughts. Synchron has co-developed a Bluetooth-based interface aligned with Apple's BCI-HID protocol, connecting brain signals to iPhone, iPad, and Vision Pro through Switch Control, and runs a Cognitive AI division decoding neural data in real time. The Stentrode is an investigational device under FDA and TGA clinical trials and is not yet commercially approved. Synchron publishes no public developer API, SDK, or documentation surface; this profile captures its corporate identity and probed domain-security posture.

Synchron is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Brain-Computer Interface, Neurotechnology, Medical Devices, and Implantable Devices.

Synchron’s developer surface includes engineering blog and 4 more developer resources.
