(OTC: INND) ("InnerScope"), an emerging and disruptive leader in the Direct-to-Consumer Hearing Device and Hearing Health Technology space, announces that it has signed a Letter of Intent Agreement (the "LOI Agreement") with Audio Cardio Inc. dba AudioCardio™("AudioCardio"), granting InnerScope a worldwide license (excluding Japan, Korea, and China) for full commercial rights to develop, market, and sell an InnerScope branded subscription-based mobile app (InnerScope's "Hearing Therapy App") utilizing AudioCardio™ proprietary software which has clinically proven Threshold Sound Conditioning technology, i.e., "Physical Therapy for Your Hearing."

InnerScope believes its subscription-based Hearing Therapy App can reach tens of millions of people worldwide suffering from hearing loss and/or tinnitus that either can't afford or may not have access to hearing health services but does own or has access to a smartphone.

AudioCardio™Proprietary Threshold Sound Conditioning - "Physical Therapy for Your Hearing."
Threshold Sound Conditioning Therapy technology detects the key frequencies that have lost sensitivity (commonly due to noise exposure and aging) and exercises them with personalized sound signals.
AudioCardio users assess their hearing to generate personalized barely audible sound therapies to maintain and strengthen their hearing.
AudioCardio's Threshold Sound Conditioning works by understanding an individual's lowest threshold of sound (minimum audible level) at several frequency ranges for each ear via their in-app hearing assessment. Once a baseline threshold has been established for each frequency range, the Threshold Sound Conditioning algorithm (sound therapy) targets the most damaged range of frequencies per ear by stimulating the cells responsible for transmitting the "noise" from our environment into electrical signals. These electrical signals are then transmitted to the brain through the auditory system to be interpreted and perceived as sound. The sound therapy is played at the barely audible or just inaudible level based on each hearing assessment. After consistent use, the inaudible sound therapy may become audible, indicating progress. AudioCardio's sound therapy is then adjusted through subsequent hearing assessments for new hearing thresholds as customers make progress using the app.
Clinically Proven Threshold Sound Conditioning – Back by Data and Science
AudioCardio's technology has been clinically proven in a double-blind randomized controlled trial conducted with Stanford University and Palo Alto Medical Foundation.
- AudioCardio's technology had recently published a randomized controlled clinical study with Stanford University*. *The study can be found at https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7314479/
