It does not prescribe, assess or diagnose
RVer AI ranks the library and shows the evidence behind each suggestion. The choice is always the team's.
What is registered,
and what is not yet.
The question any service asks before buying. Answered on its own page, not in small print at the end of another one.
01What the registration covers

02What RVer does not do
Worth writing out in full, rather than inferring it from what goes unsaid.
It does not replace clinical assessment or judgement
It is a non-pharmacological complement, used under the supervision of the healthcare team.
It is not for self-administration
The intended users are healthcare professionals and trained carers. The patient is always supervised.
It does not collect clinical patient data
No personal or clinical data leaves the headset. Only per-device usage statistics, which identify no one.

Most are by independent, peer-reviewed authors; the texts marked as RVer Study are written by our team. None of them is a performance claim for the product, nor a substitute for clinical assessment. The Class I medical device registration (EUDAMED and INFARMED) covers the base product.
