Profile
Esper Bionics is a New York-based human augmentation company founded in 2019, specializing in advanced bionic prosthetics and AI-powered wearable ecosystems. The company aims to create intuitive, durable, and life-enhancing devices that restore functionality and independence for people with limb differences while expanding into broader health and augmentation technologies. Led by founders Anna Believantseva and Dmytro (Dima) Gazda, Esper Bionics combines robotics, AI, machine learning, and human-centered design to produce prosthetics that feel and understand the human body.
The flagship product is the Esper Hand (including the latest Esper Hand 2), recognized as one of the world’s most advanced bionic hands. It is anatomically designed, lightweight, and military-tested for durability in extreme conditions. Key features include proportional motor control (modulating speed and force based on muscle input strength), AI-driven pattern recognition for intuitive grip selection (Smart GriP), and self-learning capabilities that adapt to user behavior over time with minimal training. The hand supports multiple grips and patterns, offers Bluetooth connectivity, and is IP-rated for water resistance. It has received PDAC approval for L6880 coding, FDA clearances, and prestigious awards including Red Dot “Best of the Best,” CES Innovation Award, and recognition in TIME Magazine’s 100 Best Inventions.
Supporting the prosthetic is the MARS (multisensory hub), an advanced EMG (electromyography) system that enables high-precision control, detects body parameters, and serves as a foundation for future wearables. The Esper+ mobile app allows users to customize grips, fine-tune sensors, back up settings, and organize commands, providing personalized control. The ecosystem emphasizes natural movement, reduced cognitive load, and real-world reliability for daily activities like typing, painting, driving, or military service.
Esper Bionics focuses on transformative impact, with user stories highlighting regained independence and improved quality of life. The company is building a broader bionic ecosystem of wearables for millions with disabilities and envisions AI-driven health insights for preventive medicine benefiting billions. With R&D offices in Kyiv (Ukraine) and Berlin (Germany), and manufacturing capabilities, Esper Bionics combines innovative engineering with clinical accessibility and has secured significant investments while collaborating internationally.
