Our goal at Neuralink is to restore abilities that were thought to be lost forever due to injury, accident, or disease. See how Audrey, who is paralyzed due to spinal cord injury, uses her brain-computer interface to play video games with her mind. Neuralink devices are investigational and not FDA approved. This video features voluntary clinical trial participants sharing their personal experiences, which may not reflect all participants or future outcomes.

Neuralink is developing ultra-high bandwidth brain-machine interfaces to connect humans and computers.
About us
Neuralink is a neurotechnology company building a generalized input/output platform for the brain. Our work has the potential to restore autonomy to those with unmet medical needs and fundamentally transform how humans interact with the world. Our core technology is an implantable brain-computer interface with ultra-thin, flexible electrode threads placed precisely by a surgical robot, enabling high-bandwidth, bidirectional interaction with neural signals. We’ve received multiple FDA Breakthrough Device designations and are conducting clinical trials around the world. Trial participants are exploring how our implant could enhance their daily lives — controlling digital devices like computers and smartphones, operating physical devices like robotic arms and wheelchairs, and translating thought directly into speech and text. Developing brain-computer interfaces is an interdisciplinary challenge, and we’re looking for exceptional talent across engineering, science, and operations.

“That first signature resembled my actual, physical handwriting.” Audrey became fully paralyzed in 2005 after a devastating car accident. 20 years later, she found herself signing her name again… using her mind. See how our brain-computer interface technology helped restore what Audrey felt was lost forever. Neuralink devices are investigational and not FDA approved.

After a car accident left her paralyzed from the neck down, Audrey didn’t think she would be able to draw or paint again. 20 years later, she became the first female participant in our clinical trials. Now, she uses her brain-computer interface to create art with her mind. Neuralink devices are investigational and not FDA approved.

Information about everything you can experience — from movement, to speech, to vision — can be found by recording electrical signals in different areas of the brain. Many conditions such as paralysis, aphasia, and blindness are caused by disruptions in these signals. Neuralink is building a surgical robot capable of reaching any brain region. The goal: a generalized neural interface to help solve any condition that originates in the brain. Neuralink devices are investigational and not FDA approved.

Kenneth was diagnosed with ALS in 2024 and is losing his ability to speak. Through Neuralink’s brain-computer interface technology, he is working towards regaining not just the ability to speak, but to speak in his own, original voice. See how this is made possible. Note: Neuralink devices are investigational and are not commercially available or FDA approved. This video features voluntary participants in clinical trials who chose to share their personal experiences. Their statements reflect individual perspectives and experiences, which may not be representative of all participants or future outcomes.
