Voice-Based Stress Monitoring
Stress is everywhere in modern life, but no two people experience it the same way. Sonde’s Stress Biomarker transforms everyday speech into a real-time measure of your body’s stress response. By analyzing subtle shifts in tone, strain, and speech flow, Sonde helps you stay aware of stress levels before they take a toll on your well-being or performance
Why Stress and Mental Fitness Matter
Unchecked stress affects more than just mood — it can disrupt focus, reduce productivity, and impact long-term health. Sonde fills the gap left by traditional health trackers by providing “above-the-neck” insights that reveal how stress shows up in everyday life.
How The Stress Biomarker Works
Sonde’s Stress biomarker uses advanced vocal analysis to detect subtle changes in tone, strain, and speech flow. By interpreting these patterns, it generates a Stress Score that reflects how closely your voice resembles someone experiencing stress. Voice samples can be captured passively during everyday speech or through short, cued recordings — enabling seamless user engagement.
Inside The Stress Score
Stress works much like a pressure cooker. As heat builds, steam begins to rise inside, signaling growing pressure. In the same way, your voice carries signs of mounting tension when stress increases. With Sonde’s Stress Biomarker, individuals and organizations can detect these early signals, release pressure in healthy ways, and better support well-being and performance.
When a user receives a score in the ‘low’ range, they might continue with their current activities, maintain healthy routines, or simply note that they’re in a balanced state.
When a user receives a score in the ‘moderate’ range, they might benefit from short pauses, light movement, or mindful breathing to stay steady while managing daily demands.
When a user receives a score in the ‘high’ range, they might consider stepping away for recovery, practicing stress-relief techniques, or seeking additional support if needed.
