This Startup Created An Unique Hearing Test

Mimi – a startup from Berlin founded in 2014 – leverages digital tech to disrupt hearing healthcare. A team of hearing scientists, designers and technologists created an unique hearing test and music app that makes personalized sound possible across all audio devices, for people of all hearing ages.

– More than 650 million people have some sort of hearing impairment, but only one out of forty has any sort of treatment. While most of the thirty-nine out of forty have access to smartphones – and could immediately hear better. Starting with an intuitive and very accurate hearing test app was our first step to empower people to understand if they have a problem at all. And then offer better hearing with our new app Mimi Music – says Henrik Matthies, Co-Founder.

Mimi’s sound personalization technology was developed by a team of forty in-house specialists working in close cooperation with Charité – Berlin University of Medicine, one of the largest university hospitals in Europe. The Mimi Hearing Test is a medical product in Europe (CE, class 1).

Mimi Hearing Test (over 1.5 million downloads) enables people to check how they hear in everyday situation. It gives understandable results in about 6 minutes.

Features:

  • Modern testing paradigm – Easy-to-use and in-depth testing of a wide range of frequencies (125 Hz-12 kHz)
  • Get instant results – Tangible insights to help you reflect on your hearing health.
  • Track your hearing – See how your hearing has changed over time.
  • Export results – Print your results to share with friends or medical professionals.
  • Compatibility with HealthKit – Easily import your demographic data from the Health app and compare your hearing results.
