Brief company description: Clinical copilot Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platform for autism outcomes.

What are some major milestones in the company’s history? So far, NonBinary Solutions has received its first patent, and has trademarked the Knowetic name for its software. In its first year of operation, NBS has been able to secure $150,000 in revenue from two paying clients. ... NonBinary Solutions has developed alpha models for these early clients, and data from these models can be used to answer questions and give real-time feedback about how to build out their scalable SaaS product. NBS has also secured permission from University of Kentucky’s Center of Innovation and Population Health to use their open source assessment, the Child and Adolescent Needs and Strengths tool. With a finalized contract from this managed care organization, NBS has achieved a monthly recurring revenue of $14,000. In total, this partnership will bring in $50,000 in revenue this year, with continuation into 2024.

What is your company working on right now? Currently the team is working hard to get Knowetic built and released to practitioners. Getting this software deployed will allow practitioners to ask questions, further driving its development.

Why grow your company in/from Kentucky? Living in Kentucky allows NBS to live locally but think globally. Kentucky’s community and cost of living optimizes operations while so much can be completed virtually or with visiting travel to larger national and international innovation hubs.

Give us one bold prediction in 2024 for startups, technology or venture capital/fundraising. 2024 will be known as the year where large language models, often referred to as AI, will change the way humanity runs their operations. The ability to process vast amounts of information in seconds will change many professions entirely. Startups that understand this will be able to shape this new world in positive ways.
