Life Whisperer uses artificial intelligence to identify healthy embryos in IVF to improve pregnancy outcomes for couples wanting to have children. Clinicians can access Life Whisperer on-demand, where they can ‘drag-and-drop’ images of embryos onto a web browser and receive an instant viability report. Clinical trials showed Life Whisperer outperformed highly-skilled clinicians by over 30% in identifying viable embryos, and was also able to identify the Down Syndrome genetic disorder. Life Whisperer has won multiple awards including Top 5 in TechCrunch Battlefield Australia and TalentUnleashed ‘Global Winner One to Watch,’ which was judged by Sir Richard Branson and Steve Wozniak.
