Published purpose

8 Bit Cortex has leveraged bootstrapping and non-dilutive funding to develop an MVP gamified learning management system (LMS) to enhance engagement and tracking of wellness data. 8 Bit Cortex has validated the market need for an LMS to host addiction recovery programs, enabling automated measurement and reporting of Addiction Recovery Capital consistent with the Alberta Recovery Model for stakeholders, such as government and insurers. Building on partnerships in youth support, employment services, and entrepreneur mental health, the project will integrate engagement metrics and outcome data to train an Agentic AI that recommends personalized recovery pathways, accelerating client healing, and enabling outcome-driven service delivery.
