The Problem

More than 80% of soccer-related injuries in the U.S occur in those under the age of 25.

8.9%  to   12.6% of sports-related injuries in the youth population are concussions.

Out of 3.8 million concussions annually in the US, 50% go unreported.

Millions suffer head injuries yearly without knowing their severity. Many avoid doctors due to cost or stigma, leaving symptoms untracked and recovery unsupported. Youth athletes, parents, and active adults lack accessible and continuous guidance for concussion prevention, detection, and recovery.

No existing solution can reliably detect concussions using only symptom narratives because current tools rely on simple checklists and static rules rather than intelligence. Most competitors provide generic surveys that ignore individual context, while internet advice remains inconsistent and unsafe. HeadCheck is different because it is powered by a specifically trained AI model built on large-scale concussion data and symptom patterns. This model analyzes subtle combinations of symptoms, severity, timing, and user history to supply them with user-specific concussion knowledge in under a minute. Beyond detection, HeadCheck supports the full concussion cycle, prevention, early identification, recovery guidance, and community. As concussion awareness rises and pressure for safer youth sports increases, HeadCheck offers an intelligent, scalable solution the market has lacked.

HeadCheck provides an indicator of potential concussions but does not offer medical advice. To obtain medical certification, we would have to involve health professionals in design, comply with regulations, and conduct clinical trials. Certification would provide greater credibility and foster trust, making our app even more valuable and is something we intend to do in the future.
