# Arctop

> Arctop is brain-computer interface (BCI) software: it decodes focus, cognitive load and attention in real time from the EEG in everyday headphones, so apps and AI can respond to the person wearing them. Founded 2016, San Francisco.

- **What Arctop is:** brain-computer interface software. It decodes cognitive state (cognitive load, visual attention, auditory attention, enjoyment, sleep, memory and identity) in real time from the EEG sensors in everyday headphones and other wearables, so apps and AI can respond to the person wearing them. Arctop does not make hardware.
- **Custom classifiers:** beyond the seven ready-made outputs, Arctop builds custom classifiers for partners: any state a study can define and measure, served through the same API.
- **Founded:** 2016, San Francisco, by Dan Furman, Ph.D. (CEO) and Eitan Kay (CTO).
- **Investors:** In-Q-Tel, Supermoon Capital, FGF (Fifth Growth Fund) and Script Capital.
- **Patents:** 13 granted patents (U.S. 6, Europe 2, Japan 2, Israel 3), listed at https://arctop.com/data/patents.json.
- **U.S. Air Force:** a 1.25M USD AFWERX Direct-to-Phase II SBIR contract for cognition-adaptive training simulations, with MetaTeq and BigBear.ai.
- **Shipping:** the Arctop app runs on Master & Dynamic's MW75 Neuro EEG headphones (12 channels at 500 Hz) and measures cognitive load live.
- **Developers:** a public API with self-serve keys (https://docs.arctop.com): apps on any connected device read the decoded scores in real time.
- **AI:** Reinforcement Learning from Brain Feedback (RLbF, preprint, August 2026, https://doi.org/10.20944/preprints202608.1274.v1) turns decoded EEG into a reward signal that adapts a language model to the person using it; Isaac, an EEG-adaptive conversation agent, ships in the Arctop app.
- **Privacy architecture:** EEG is encrypted on the device and decoded in Arctop's cloud; language models see derived scores, never raw EEG.

This file points language models at Arctop's primary public content: long-form research posts on BCI, EEG, and brain-decoding methods, plus core company pages. The home page is a WebGL film; the facts above cover what it presents, with public details it leaves out, and the deep dives below carry the substantive material.
