With Axite, they developed innovative software for home monitoring of brain health. By linking an EEG headband to smartphone interactions, Axite can measure cognitive functions and detect changes over time. The startup is now launching its product specifically for people with epilepsy, with plans to expand to other brain diseases in the future.   <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8541266 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"8541266\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/plnt.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/foto-charlotte-axite-1024x682.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-30307\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/plnt.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/foto-charlotte-axite-1024x682.png 1024w, https:\/\/plnt.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/foto-charlotte-axite-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/plnt.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/foto-charlotte-axite-768x512.png 768w, https:\/\/plnt.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/foto-charlotte-axite-1536x1024.png 1536w, https:\/\/plnt.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/foto-charlotte-axite.png 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-667dd0c elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"667dd0c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">BNR podcast PITCH! <\/h4>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-40f325d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"40f325d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-62cbd044 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent e-lazyloaded\" data-id=\"62cbd044\" data-element_type=\"container\"><div class=\"e-con-inner\"><div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4523a0ba elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4523a0ba\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\"><div class=\"elementor-widget-container\"><p>In this podcast, startups are given one minute to pitch the problem or opportunity they are addressing.
