Posit Science Corporation

Posit Science Corp is a San Francisco-based corporate entity specializing in brain training and cognitive health technologies, focusing on developing digital therapeutics and computerized cognitive training programs. The company provides evidence-based software platforms designed to enhance cognitive performance, memory, and brain plasticity across various populations, including military personnel, older adults, and individuals with specific cognitive challenges. Their primary offerings include digital brain training software, cognitive assessment tools, and neuroplasticity-based intervention programs that aim to improve cognitive function and extend functional independence.

Through federal contract awards, Posit Science Corp has primarily worked with military and federal agencies, delivering specialized cognitive training solutions. The U.S. Special Operations Command awarded the company multiple contracts, including a $550,000 delivery order for 10,000 software licenses to enhance cognitive performance for special operations personnel. The U.S. Coast Guard contracted a $7,940.47 turnkey cognitive training program for 28 trainees, focusing on response inhibition and decision-making under pressure. The U.S. Army's Training and Doctrine Command awarded a $153,500 purchase order for a BrainHQ group enterprise license, demonstrating the company's ability to provide cognitive training across different military branches. These contracts were consistently non-set-aside and focused on improving cognitive capabilities through digital platforms.

Posit Science Corp has been a significant recipient of federal grant awards, primarily from the National Institute on Aging, targeting various cognitive health interventions. Their grant portfolio includes projects like the INHANCE-MCI program to enhance cholinergic neurotransmission and mitigate cognitive decline, a Remote State Training program for addressing insomnia in older adults, and a Community-Based Brain Health Program to address dementia risk. These grants support developing and evaluating computerized cognitive training programs designed to extend functional independence, improve cognitive performance, and potentially reduce the risk of neurodegenerative diseases. The company has collaborated with academic institutions like the University of Iowa, University of Alabama at Birmingham, and the University of Minnesota through sub-grant awards to support research and development of cognitive assessment and intervention technologies.

The company holds an indefinite delivery contract with the United States Special Operations Command valued at $6 million, effective through May 31, 2025. This single-award, non-set-aside contract allows for the procurement of software licenses supporting training and readiness programs. The contract enables USSOCOM to access Posit Science's evidence-based digital therapeutics at scale, providing special operations forces with cognitive enhancement tools. The initial delivery order of $550,000 for 10,000 software licenses demonstrates the practical implementation of this contract, enabling personnel to access brain plasticity-based tools designed to improve focus, memory, and decision-making in high-stress environments.
