BRYGE AI Wins Silver Stevie Award for Women-Focused Health Technology Innovation
BRYGE AI's recognition at the 2025 Stevie Awards for Women in Business highlights the growing importance of technology solutions addressing communication challenges faced by women with ADHD in professional and personal settings.
BRYGE AI has been awarded the Silver Stevie Award for Best Health Tech Product for Women at the 2025 Stevie Awards for Women in Business. The ADHD communication assistant, developed by Rebecca Koniahgari, represents a significant advancement in neurodiversity-focused technology by helping neurotypical individuals communicate more effectively with people who have ADHD.
The tool's recognition comes at a time when workplace and educational accommodations for neurodiverse individuals are gaining increased attention. BRYGE AI distinguishes itself from traditional productivity apps or therapy tools by focusing specifically on communication health. The platform 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.
Judges praised BRYGE AI for its innovation and 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 doesn't just bridge communication gaps but rewrites the emotional script for countless relationships.
The award in the Best Health Tech Product for Women category underscores 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. Early users including educators, professionals, and partners have reported measurable reductions in anxiety and improvements in clarity, trust, and emotional understanding when using the platform.
Rebecca Koniahgari, Founder of BRYGE AI, stated that receiving this Stevie Award is a powerful validation of their mission to demonstrate that technology can and should be built to foster deeper human connection and support neurodiversity. The tool includes features such as an ADHD-aware rewrite engine for tone and clarity, cognitive load and pressure analysis, personalized educational feedback, and voice cloning for accessible message delivery.
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. Gold, Silver, and Bronze Stevie Award winners were determined by the average scores of more than 190 business professionals worldwide working on seven juries.

This recognition highlights the increasing market demand for technology solutions that address specific neurodiversity challenges, particularly those affecting women in professional environments. The tool's focus on helping neurotypical individuals adapt their communication style represents a shift toward mutual accommodation in neurodiverse relationships rather than placing the burden of adaptation solely on neurodivergent individuals.
