Executive Summary

This is more than a redesign.

The current website explains important parts of Cortigent's science, but it was built for a wholly owned subsidiary. The post-merger site must introduce Cortigent Holdings, Inc. as a Nasdaq-listed neurotechnology company while keeping the technology, clinical and patient story understandable.

Clarify the investment story

Investors should quickly understand the platform, the two development programs, the clinical track record and where to find the current facts supporting the story.

Clearly explain the technology

The site should make precision neurostimulation understandable without oversimplifying the medical device, clinical or regulatory realities.

Let IBN carry the work

IBN will lead the research, strategic organization, writing, migration, design and development while limiting Cortigent's involvement to essential access, answers and review.

Strategic Direction

Build the website around Cortigent’s strongest story.

The new website should make Cortigent’s precision neurostimulation platform, development programs, clinical progress and technology legacy easy to understand while giving investors direct access to the public-company information they expect.

Current Website

Strong raw material, subsidiary-era structure

The current site explains Orion, the Stroke Recovery System and the underlying technology, but visitors still have to assemble the broader company story.

  • Vivani subsidiary and corporate-parent language becomes obsolete after the merger.
  • Investor Relations is secondary rather than a primary website destination.
  • The current Pipeline page contains stale clinical language and does not clearly separate current development from legacy technology.
  • Press releases and public-company information are not presented through one automated Cortigent system.
  • Leadership, governance, filing history and legacy ClearOne obligations require post-closing reconciliation.
Recommended Website

One post-merger company story with evidence underneath

The redesigned site will make Cortigent's mission, technology, programs, clinical progress and public-company information work together.

  • Introduce Cortigent Holdings, Inc. and Nasdaq: CRGT immediately.
  • Organize the story as one platform supporting two development programs.
  • Turn Investor Relations into a high-value destination with automated QuoteMedia content.
  • Present Argus II only as historical technology and clinical experience—not as a current product.
  • Build clear paths for investors, patients, clinicians, researchers and partners.

Planning references include Cortigent's current website, the merger announcement and the related Form 8-K.

Post-Merger Positioning

Present Cortigent as the focused neurotechnology company it has become.

The website should introduce the corporate identity first, then progressively reveal the technology, development programs, clinical evidence and patient impact that support the story.

Recommended Homepage Positioning
Precision neurostimulation designed to help restore critical body functions.

Cortigent Holdings, Inc. is a Nasdaq-listed neurotechnology company developing brain-interface medical devices for artificial vision and post-stroke motor recovery.

This is example positioning. IBN will refine the final wording during development using the latest approved disclosures and regulatory review.

Platform ClarityShow how the implant, wearable processing and targeted stimulation work together.
Program FocusKeep Orion and the Stroke Recovery System distinct but visibly connected.
Clinical EvidencePresent approved development milestones and results in a scannable format.
Investor AccessPut filings, releases, stock information, governance and contacts within easy reach.

Technology and Programs Architecture

One platform. Two development programs.

A simple architecture will help normal visitors understand the company without forcing them to interpret a traditional pharmaceutical-style pipeline. “Programs” is the recommended navigation label; “Product Development Pipeline” can appear where technically appropriate.

01

Precision Neurostimulation Platform

Proprietary microelectronics, a 60-electrode cortical surface array, wireless communication, wearable processing, software and neuroscience expertise form the core platform.

Core Technology
02

Orion®

The lead investigational visual cortical prosthesis program is designed to deliver meaningful visual perception to people with profound blindness.

Lead Program
03

Stroke Recovery System

A development-stage system intended to apply cortical stimulation to improve recovery of arm and hand movement after paralysis due to stroke.

Existing Technology Assets

Reuse what works. Propose optional enhancements.

Cortigent already has useful device imagery, brain/cortex graphics, Orion visuals, patient videos and technical content that can be reorganized into a stronger Technology page.

01Review existing assets
02Reuse approved originals
03Improve the presentation
04Identify visual gaps
The Technology Page Platform overview, components, how it works, artificial vision, motor recovery and intellectual property can be presented together.
A Note on Custom Graphics If new graphics would materially improve the website, IBN will recommend them and provide pricing if you would like our team to develop the assets.
cortigent Cortigent logo
Current Programs + Technology Legacy

The site will distinguish today's investigational programs from the predecessor experience that helped build the platform.

Clinical Progress and History

Position Argus II within Cortigent’s technology history.

Orion completed a six-year Early Feasibility Study in 2025 and remains Cortigent's lead investigational program. Argus II was discontinued in 2019 and should appear only as historical technology and clinical experience that helped provide a foundation for later systems.

  • Orion presented as the lead current program
  • Stroke Recovery System presented as a development program
  • Argus II clearly labeled discontinued and no longer available
  • Breakthrough Device status never confused with FDA approval

References: Cortigent's Argus II history and Vivani's six-year Orion study release.

Investor Relations Rebuild

Make Investor Relations a destination, not a collection of links.

The Investor Overview page should deliver the strongest version of Cortigent's investment story in one visit, then guide visitors to focused pages and automated archives.

Corrections, Cleanup and Migration

IBN will rebuild the foundation.

The project includes strategic editing, link cleanup, content reconciliation and efficient migration of useful technology, clinical and historical material into the new WordPress website.

Proposed corrections and reconciliation

1
Replace subsidiary-era positioningRemove Vivani-parent language and present Cortigent Holdings, Inc. as the post-merger Nasdaq-listed company.
2
Update leadership and governanceUse the final post-closing executive team, board, committees, governance documents and approved biographies.
3
Reconcile clinical-development languageReplace stale references to an ongoing Orion EFS or 36-month results with approved language reflecting the completed six-year study and current path.
4
Separate current programs from historyRemove Argus II from any current pipeline treatment and label it clearly as discontinued legacy technology.
5
Verify patent and metric figuresResolve differing public patent counts and use only current figures with an approved measurement date.
6
Correct metadata and utility issuesReplace generic page titles such as “General 1,” repair links, establish redirects and add privacy, cookie and medical/regulatory language for approval.
7
Plan legacy ClearOne handlingOrganize required historical filings, releases and any ongoing product-support destination without allowing the former AV business to obscure Cortigent's new identity.

Efficient content and system migration

IBN can reuse appropriate existing pages, technology explanations, media, videos, publications and historical materials while rebuilding the presentation and integrating the public-company systems.

1
Preferred accessCortigent provides administrator access to the current website, media library and relevant post-merger investor materials.

Questions for Cortigent

A few focused decisions will help IBN finalize the build.

These can be answered efficiently during kickoff. IBN will continue using public information and its own research to minimize the burden on Cortigent's leadership.

Corporate, Clinical and Technology Decisions
  1. Please confirm the post-merger leadership, board, approved biographies and headshots.
  2. Should the website use specific projected dates for development milestones or describe the path without dates?
  3. Which patent figures and measurement date should the website use? Public materials currently contain differing counts.
  4. How prominently should Argus II appear within Cortigent's history?
  5. Should the Prospective Studies / Join Our Study List feature remain? If so, who receives submissions?
Investor Relations, QuoteMedia and Historical Records
  1. Which QuoteMedia modules should be included at launch? IBN recommends delayed quote, press releases and SEC filings at minimum.
  2. How should pre-merger ClearOne SEC filings, annual reports and press releases be organized? For instance, we could do within filtered historical archives or a separate legacy section.
  3. Should selected pre-merger Cortigent and Vivani releases remain available as historical Cortigent news?
  4. Who will provide final review and approval before publication?
Legacy Support, Accessibility, Hosting and Scope
  1. What is the post-merger plan for legacy ClearOne product warranty and technical support? Should clearone.com remain a standalone support destination, and should cortigent.com link to it?
  2. Does Cortigent plan to establish an accessiBe account for launch so IBN can implement it at no additional integration charge?
  3. What hosting and ongoing website-management arrangement does Cortigent prefer?

Recommended Next Step

Review the formal proposal when Cortigent is ready to move forward.

This strategy establishes the recommended direction for the new website. Cortigent can review and approve the official project scope, pricing and payment terms through IBN's Qwilr proposal. Once approved, IBN will request the necessary access and begin research, content, design and development.

The Qwilr page is the official approval document for this project.
