BRYGE AI Wins Silver Stevie Award for ADHD Communication Tool

BRYGE AI, an ADHD communication assistant designed to help neurotypicals communicate more clearly and compassionately with people who have ADHD, has been awarded the Silver Stevie Award for Best Health Tech Product for Women at the 2025 Stevie Awards for Women in Business. The tool, developed by Rebecca Koniahgari, uses artificial intelligence to transform overwhelming or unclear messages into ADHD-aware, emotionally intelligent communication that reduces anxiety, confusion, and miscommunication in relationships, classrooms, and workplaces.

Unlike productivity apps or therapy tools, BRYGE AI focuses specifically on communication health by helping neurotypicals rewrite messages that are easier for ADHD minds to process. The platform includes an ADHD-aware rewrite engine for tone and clarity, cognitive load and pressure analysis, personalized educational feedback, and voice cloning for accessible message delivery. Judges praised the innovation for its empathy-driven design, with one describing it as an amazing health tech solution that represents not just tech with impact, but a caring, feasible, and radical change in the right direction.

Another judge noted that putting empathy at the center of AI is particularly appreciated, emphasizing that the tool goes beyond bridging communication gaps to rewrite the emotional script for countless relationships. Additional feedback from judges described BRYGE AI as a thoughtful, much-needed tool with real promise and a user-friendly, intuitive technology that gives those living and working with ADHD an authentic voice. The recognition in the Best Health Tech Product for Women category highlights the growing need for tools that support the mental wellness and communication challenges that women with ADHD often navigate both at home and in their careers.

Rebecca Koniahgari, Founder of BRYGE AI, explained that the tool was inspired by the experiences of women with ADHD and aims to empower neurotypicals to communicate with empathy, clarity, and understanding for everyone with ADHD. She stated that receiving this Stevie Award serves as powerful validation of their mission and reinforces that technology can and should be built to foster deeper human connection and support neurodiversity. Early users including educators, professionals, and partners seeking better communication with ADHD individuals have reported measurable reductions in anxiety and improvements in clarity, trust, and emotional understanding.

The Stevie Awards for Women in Business, now in its 22nd year, received its most varied and diverse body of nominations ever according to Maggie Miller, president of the Stevie Awards. She noted that the caliber of winning nominations reflects this diversity and emphasized how meaningful winning a Stevie Award can be for women's careers and organizations.
