A new signal for your clinical toolkit
Audiograms measure detection thresholds in silence. Samioo measures comprehension in real life - capturing what happens when your patient is actually trying to hear.
The gap audiograms don’t close
Patients frequently report that their hearing aids help in the clinic but not at home, at dinner, or in the car. That’s not a fitting problem - it’s a measurement problem.
Samioo runs on recordings of real conversations: the same restaurant, the same family members, the same background noise the patient actually lives with. The detections are grounded in what actually broke down - not a synthetic sentence list.
What the report captures
- Full conversation transcript with speaker labels
- Timeline of all detected comprehension events
- Acoustic summary: noise floor, SNR estimate, speech level
- Social noise confidence scoring (not all "What?"s are hearing failures)
- Detection context: what was said, what was missed, how long after
What Samioo detects
Two classes of comprehension failure, each with distinct clinical relevance.
Explicit hearing failure markers - "What?", "Huh?", "Sorry, could you repeat that?" - flagged with timing, speaker, and acoustic context.
Clinical relevance
Correlates with speech intelligibility in noise. Frequency and pattern help distinguish aided vs. unaided performance gaps.
Semantic re-asking: when a speaker asks a question whose answer was already provided earlier in the same conversation.
Clinical relevance
Captures covert hearing loss - moments where the patient appeared to follow the conversation but demonstrably didn't retain what was said.
