Tidewater

Pediatric dysregulation, in real data.

Research infrastructure for pediatric dysregulation studies. Ingests wearable and app data, computes dysregulation signatures, and gives clinical researchers the query surface they've been building in spreadsheets for years.

Better tools for the researchers who ask harder questions.

Dysregulation — the emotional volatility that often shows up alongside pediatric ADHD and ODD — is one of the hardest things to measure in child psychiatry. Rating scales sample it once a week. Classroom observation catches an hour a day. The real signal lives in between. Researchers know this, and have been stitching together wearable exports, app diaries, and parent reports in spreadsheets for years.

Tidewater is what those spreadsheets wanted to become. It ingests data from multiple sources, derives a library of dysregulation features, and gives researchers a cohort layer that respects IRB requirements. Queries that used to be impossible — spanning three data sources and four hundred participants — now take a few clicks.

Features

The plumbing your study doesn't want to build again.

01

Multi-source ingestion

Wearables, EMA apps, parent-report surveys — normalised into a single per-participant time-series.

02

Signal library

A curated set of derived dysregulation features — variability, reactivity, recovery — computed the same way every time.

03

IRB-friendly

Consent tracking, retention schedules, and deidentification workflows built to satisfy institutional review.

04

Cohort exports

Filter, define, and export cohorts to your analysis environment — with provenance metadata attached.

Open Tidewater

One workspace — built for researchers.

Tidewater is a single research application.

Side A

For researchers

Cohort explorer, signal library browser, and structured exports. Query dysregulation features across your study population, define subgroups, and hand off to your analysis tools with provenance intact.
