AIRx is a research and innovation collaborative pioneering AI for human wellness. We conduct scientific research into AI methods and governance systems, and we develop AI tools that support research and collaboration at scales not achievable without AI.

Our work is inherently collaborative. We bring together individuals and organizations with diverse expertise and lived experience in shared inquiry, focusing on applied research that advances human well-being and examining its effects at the individual, community, and population levels.

We emphasize open dissemination, transparency, and rigorous methodology. Where research outcomes are best advanced through translation, AIRx pursues partnerships and commercialization as mechanisms to extend access, enable scale, and sustain long-term public benefit.
