For researchers & universities

Study real life, respectfully.

The hardest part of health research is real-world adherence: participants who actually log, every day, for months. Kata's daily conversation is built for exactly that, and its privacy model is built for ethics boards.

Why Kata

What it does for you.

Adherence, solved kindly

Participants keep logging because Kata feels like being cared for, not like a study protocol. Daily data, without daily reminders from your staff.

Rich everyday signals

Food, movement, sleep, habits and mood of real life: the everyday picture lab visits cannot see.

Built for consent

Participants own their data end to end: it lives on their device, and anything shared with a study is explicit, informed and revocable. Your ethics board will recognize the difference.

A partner, not a vendor

We are genuinely curious: collaborations shape Kata, and we bring engineering and design to the table, not just an app.

Together

What we can do together.

Study cohorts

Licenses and onboarding for your participants, with a setup that fits your protocol.

Consented data flows

Participants export or share exactly what they agreed to: nothing more exists on our side. Aggregated insights only where each person consents.

Methods support

Honest documentation of what Kata measures and how, for your design and your reviewers.

Published together

We love good science: co-authored findings and open methodology where it serves the work.

How it works

Three steps, no theater.

  1. Reach out

    A few honest lines in the form below: who your people are, roughly how many, what you have in mind.

  2. Shape it together

    We design the deal with you: licenses, scope, timeline. No decks required, decisions in days.

  3. Launch with support

    Setup, materials and a direct line to the people who build Kata: before, during and after the start.
