Brain RX uses intense mental exercises to act on the brain's core cognitive skills: Long-term Memory, Processing Speed, Logic & Reasoning, Short-term Memory, Visual processing, Auditory processing (phonemic awareness) and Attention.
Brain RX is a research based one-on-one cognitive training addresses individual from 4 to 94 yrs. It is based on the idea of “neuroplasticity,” which is a relatively recent theory positing that the brain is malleable, and can be changed by experience (for better or for worse) at any age.
BrainRx brain training sharpens the brain skills we use in school, at work, and in everyday life. In other words, when brain skills are sharper, life is easier. BrainRx training results are lasting.

EndeavorRx was known as AKL-T01 or Project: EVO ADHD Treatment during its development.
On June 15, 2020 it became the first ever video game to be approved by the FDA.
