Brain-to-Text 2025 Competition Now Open – $9,000 Prize!

The Brain-to-Text 2025 competition is officially open, with a $9,000 prize up for grabs!

Participants receive intracranial electrode recordings and are challenged to develop algorithms that can decode text from brain activity. To help you get started, a baseline algorithm is provided for data loading and preprocessing—so you can focus on the real science.

The competition is organized by Blackrock Neurotech, the largest VC-backed player in our field.
