About ViveSpoon

Clinical insight, carried forward by a company.

ViveSpoon Inc. was established to address challenges observed in eating-disorder care through research, software, and responsible business development.

Our work originated in clinical practice and research at Kanazawa University. ViveSpoon Inc. now leads the business and works with healthcare institutions, universities, researchers, engineers, and business partners to develop systems that support care.

Verifiable information

Different facts require different evidence.

Company, people, registered-study, and software-development facts are presented with their separate sources and claim boundaries.

What we do

Connecting clinical practice, research, and implementation.

Our work extends beyond building an app. We study the wider system required for software to be used responsibly within healthcare.

Clinical workflow design

We examine where support is needed, then separate what software may assist with from what must remain a clinical decision.

Evidence generation

We work with healthcare and research partners on study design, evaluation, data governance, feasibility, and safe operation.

Implementation readiness

We prepare the quality, regulatory, security, and delivery foundations needed to translate research into clinical settings.

Research origin

Originating from research at Kanazawa University.

We study how changes outside the consulting room may be supported without displacing the relationship between clinician and patient.

Our approach keeps clinical care at the centre. The software is not intended to provide continuous clinician monitoring or emergency response, and its use is governed by the procedures of the relevant healthcare and research setting.

Product development

Implementation and public disclosure are separate questions.

A clinician- and research-operations console has been implemented. One version deployed to a production environment in July 2026 underwent authenticated technical smoke testing.

This is limited internal engineering evidence. It does not establish completion of user acceptance testing, participant enrolment, clinical use, study results, medical-device approval, or public availability. We also do not claim that every current safety-related revision has completed production verification.

Patient-facing and clinician-facing screens, treatment content, navigation, study procedures, and implementation logic are not publicly disclosed because they include confidential product-development information. Any broader disclosure will follow intellectual-property, jurisdiction-specific regulatory, research-ethics, and research-lead review.
