Canary Speech earns recognition on TIME and Statista’s World’s Top HealthTech Companies 2025 for pioneering AI-powered voice biomarkers that transform healthcare through early detection and continuous monitoring.
Provo, Utah — September 30, 2025
Canary Speech, an AI-powered voice biomarker health tech company headquartered in Provo, Utah, has been named to the inaugural World’s Top HealthTech Companies 2025 list, presented by TIME and Statista Inc., a leading global statistics and industry ranking provider.
The list, announced early this month on TIME.com, recognizes 400 companies worldwide that are transforming healthcare through technology. Selections were based on three primary criteria: financial performance, reputation analysis, and online engagement. Out of thousands of contenders, Canary Speech stood out for its innovation and impact in advancing digital health.
“Canary Speech is ecstatic to be recognized on TIME’s list of the World’s Top HealthTech Companies 2025,” said Henry O'Connell, CEO and cofounder of Canary Speech. “This recognition reflects the dedication of our team and the growing impact of voice biomarkers in reshaping the future of healthcare.”
Canary Speech’s proprietary platform analyzes vocal biomarkers in real time to help healthcare providers, researchers, and organizations detect signs of stress, fatigue, depression, and cognitive impairment—all in a passive, unobtrusive way. By embedding the technology into everyday environments, Canary enables early intervention and continuous monitoring without requiring patients to change their behavior or adopt new tools.
At a 2025 health innovation conference, O’Connell explained: “Voice is the most complex motor function we produce in the body. It’s very rich in information. If there is a defect of some kind—whether it’s a cold or a progressive neurological disease—all of them affect the central nervous system’s ability to control and create language.”
