Find answers to frequently asked questions about Mental Edge emotional analytics technology, data privacy, integration, pricing, and platform capabilities.
Mental Edge analyzes facial micro-expressions using a FACS-grounded computer-vision system to deliver real-time emotional insights. The platform identifies 44 discrete Action Units (AUs) that produce human facial expressions, tracking 7 core emotions with 95% detection accuracy in under 2 seconds.
Mental Edge serves athletics and sports coaching, healthcare and clinical training, business and enterprise teams, education, and security and law enforcement. Each industry has dedicated solution guides and industry-specific analytics.
Three plans are available: Essentials ($24.99/mo) for single-face analysis; Essentials MultiFace ($49.99/mo) for simultaneous multi-face analysis; and Pro + Analytics ($129.99/mo) for full organizational analytics with trend tracking, face registration, and cross-session comparison. All plans include a free trial — no credit card required.
Mental Edge is stateless by default — raw video is not retained after analysis. Only emotional vectors are stored. Edge/on-premises deployment is available for environments where data cannot leave the facility. All data handling complies with applicable privacy regulations.
Yes. Mental Edge is built around upper-face Action Units (brow and eye region) that remain visible behind surgical masks, sports helmets, and visors. The system degrades gracefully when lower-face features are occluded.
