About Brain in Hand
Brain in Hand is a neurodiversity support platform that combines an intelligent planning app, one-to-one specialist coaching and 24/7 on-demand human support in a single service.
Founded in 2009 and built on clinical research, Brain in Hand helps autistic and ADHD people, along with anyone who experiences overwhelm, anxiety or executive-functioning challenges, to plan their day, navigate difficult moments as they happen, and build lasting independence at work, in education and in everyday life.
It supports neurodivergent people and, more broadly, anyone who struggles with prioritising, planning or overwhelm. Employers use it as whole-workforce support, not only for staff with a formal diagnosis. No diagnosis is needed to benefit.
Three parts work together: a planning and self-management app; scheduled one-to-one coaching with UK-based specialists; and 24/7 on-demand human support for the moments between sessions.
No. Brain in Hand pairs digital tools with real, qualified human coaches and responders. The human relationship is central to how it works, not an automated chatbot.
Yes. Brain in Hand was founded by clinical and academic experts, including CEO Dr Louise Morpeth and co-founders Andrew Stamp and Dr Tony Brown, and the platform is backed by ongoing independent research. See our impact report page for the latest findings
Employers provide Brain in Hand through an organisational licence, and education providers can do the same for students. Individuals can also access it directly through Access to Work, Disabled Students' Allowance or private subscription. See our funding page for full details.
Brain in Hand supports autistic and ADHD people, along with anyone who experiences anxiety, overwhelm or executive-functioning challenges such as planning, prioritising, starting tasks, remembering things and managing change. You do not need a diagnosis to benefit. Rather than focusing on a label, Brain in Hand helps with the everyday challenges people actually face, which is why employers use it as whole-workforce support.
Many solutions treat neurodiversity as an add-on – a single app, a one-off assessment or a training course layered onto generic support. Brain in Hand is built around autistic and ADHD people from the ground up, shaped by 14 years of co-production with the neurodivergent community. It combines sustained one-to-one coaching with 24/7 on-demand support for the moments between sessions, so people get practical help exactly when they need it, not just when a session is booked. That ongoing combination, grounded in clinical research and lived experience, is what sets it apart
