CEO & MESSAGE

Picture of Maro Machizawa

Xiberlinc was founded to bridge the gap between the brain and society, creating a future where human emotions and sensibilities truly connect.
For over 20 years, I have dedicated my career to neuroscience — conducting research across universities and institutes around the world. Through this journey, I realized a key challenge: scientific discoveries often remain distant from everyday life.


Take brainwave technology, for example. Although it holds great potential for use in fields like medicine, education, and business, it has long remained confined to specialists and laboratories. For most people, it’s still something abstract and out of reach.


At Xiberlinc, we are working to close that distance.
By transforming brainwave and emotional data into accessible tools, we aim to build a society where people’s feelings, intentions, and thoughts can be shared and understood more accurately. For instance, brainwave analysis can capture subtle emotions, such as excitement or inspiration that traditional surveys cannot. This helps companies and creators design products and services that resonate more deeply with people. In this way, neuroscience opens new doors to insight, not just for businesses, but for society as a whole.


Our mission is to combine scientific reliability with real-world impact.
We are committed to turning the complex field of neuroscience into practical, trustworthy technology that anyone can use. Of course, challenges remain, from accessibility and cost to ethics, but we believe that delivering “usable neuroscience” to society is our purpose.
As researchers, as innovators, and as members of society, we continue to pursue research and real-world applications with people at the heart of everything we do.


By respecting each individual’s emotions and thoughts, we strive to create a world where everyone can live authentically and connect meaningfully with others.

WHERE WE STARTED

The Foundation

Our journey started from a university lab, which developed the novel EEG-based innovation that quantitatively evaluates anticipatory excitement*. This brain-emotion interface technology employed a three-axis framework capable of detecting the complex interplay between emotional response and anticipatory cognition in real time.

This breakthrough addressed a persistent challenge in research and development: in surveys, focus groups, and product testing, people struggle to articulate unconscious thoughts or find that words simply cannot capture what they truly feel. Even well-intentioned participants may provide answers that don't align with their genuine reactions, whether due to social desirability bias, limited self-awareness, or the inherent difficulty of translating internal experiences into language. By directly measuring neural activity as it happens, this approach revealed true emotional states with far greater accuracy than conventional self-report methods, opening new possibilities across product development, mental health assessment, and social welfare applications.

From Lab to Company

In 2022, our founder established the company to bridge academic neuroscience and practical application. Our goal is to make EEG technology accessible beyond research labs, bringing its insights into industries where understanding human emotion creates real value.

From that foundation, we've grown steadily. We've built our own laboratory, expanded our team, and developed applications spanning consumer wellness, academic research, and performance optimization. 

Today, we're continuing to work toward a future where neurotechnology is woven into everyday life, informing better products and unlocking human potential. This is an ongoing story of turning scientific insight into accessible, impactful technology.
