Frequently asked questions

CogniStride is a web application for practising and documenting cognitive rehabilitation exercises. It has six exercise modules (working memory, inhibition, visual scanning, everyday executive tasks, word finding, and clock drawing and time) that record results automatically, plus mental-effort pacing, progress charts and documentation tools.

Occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists, neuropsychologists and other rehabilitation clinicians working with people after stroke or traumatic brain injury, and individuals or caregivers who want structured practice at home.

No. CogniStride does not diagnose, screen for, treat or monitor any condition, and its scores are not validated clinical measures. It is a practice and documentation tool to be used alongside professional judgement.

No. You can record scores from assessments you have already given, and CogniStride shows their usual severity bands. The instruments themselves are not included.

Each module follows a published task format, such as the n-back, Stroop, Flanker, star cancellation, semantic feature analysis and clock drawing. The original references are listed on the Methods & references page. CogniStride itself has not been tested in clinical studies.

In the browser on the device you use, separately for each CogniStride account. Patient profiles, results and drawings are not stored on CogniStride servers. Our servers store your account and subscription details.

Your account works on any device, but patient records do not sync between devices or browsers. Use the same browser for a patient’s sessions. Clinician Pro can move records with a backup file.

Clearing site data or cookies for cognistride.app deletes the patient records stored in that browser, and they cannot be recovered. Clinician Pro users should download regular backups.

A session cookie keeps you signed in. The website may use Plausible, a cookieless analytics service that does not identify visitors. In the studio, analytics events never include patient information.

Individual is $9.99/month, Clinician Basic $29/month (up to 15 patients) and Clinician Pro $59/month (unlimited patients, SOAP drafts, goals and backups). Yearly billing gives two months free.

Every plan starts with a 14-day free trial. A card is required at checkout, but nothing is charged until the trial ends, and you can cancel from your account before then. One trial per account.

Go to Account → Manage billing. You can switch plans or billing interval, update your card, download invoices or cancel. After cancelling, access continues to the end of the paid period.

Clinician accounts include three demo patients with sample history so you can try every module. They are read-only: results are shown but not saved, they cannot be edited, exported or used for notes, and they do not count toward your plan’s patient limit. You can hide them once you have added your own patients.

Not at the moment. Each clinician needs their own account, and patient records are not shared between accounts.

A current version of Chrome, Edge, Firefox or Safari on a computer, laptop or tablet, and an internet connection to sign in. Speakers help with spoken cues; voice answers in the word-finding module need a microphone and Chrome or Edge.

The studio can open on a phone, but the exercises are designed for larger screens. A tablet or computer is recommended, especially for star cancellation and clock drawing.

Zoom to 200%, Atkinson Hyperlegible and OpenDyslexic fonts, light, dark and high-contrast themes, read-aloud for any text, and switch control with manual or automatic scanning.

Not yet. The interface, exercises and word lists are in English.
