Founded in 2014 by Glen Coppersmith and Tony Wood, Qntfy operated as a predictive analytics platform with a mission to bridge the gap between data science and human behavior. The Arlington, Virginia-based company focused on making complex psychological and behavioral data accessible and actionable, particularly for understanding mental health outside traditional healthcare settings. Coppersmith, who served as CEO, brought a unique background to the company, with a dual degree in computer science and cognitive psychology and a doctorate in neuroscience, aiming to apply machine learning to quantify mental well-being. This approach was born from the observation that mental health lacked the objective, quantifiable data common in physical health.
Qntfy developed a scalable analytics platform that analyzed digital life data from sources like wearables and social media with user consent, providing continuous insights into mental health conditions. The company's business model was primarily based on business-to-business contracts, working with clients such as the George W. Bush Presidential Center to gain a deeper understanding of mental health issues like post-traumatic stress disorder. Its product suite included a Cohort Analytics Platform for customer intelligence, a personal wellness AI called Quinn, and OurDataHelps, a data donation platform for mental health research. One of Qntfy's key milestones was winning the Eastern Foundry 2015 Foundry Cup.
In October 2021, SonderMind, a company dedicated to redesigning behavioral health by improving access and outcomes, acquired Qntfy for an undisclosed amount. The acquisition was a strategic fit, as Qntfy was building the technological systems to analyze behavioral data, while SonderMind was creating the human systems to deliver care. Following the acquisition, Qntfy's team and technology were integrated into SonderMind to form its Data Science division, with Glen Coppersmith joining SonderMind's executive team as Chief Data Officer. The integration aimed to enhance SonderMind's ability to provide data-driven, personalized mental healthcare, ultimately helping providers deliver more effective treatment.
