Vision
A future where mental health care works like every other area of medicine — with routine screening, early detection, and proactive intervention as the standard, not the exception.
We build the instrument for the asset the economy forgot to measure.
Entrelacs makes workforce brain capital — the human capacity for connection, adaptation, and thought — measurable, so organizations can finally develop what they’ve only ever hoped for.
Vision & mission
A world where mental health crises are predicted, prevented, and no longer inevitable.
Mission
To make preventive mental health care universally accessible through advanced psychometrics and AI built to clinical standards — giving individuals, clinicians, employers, and health systems the tools to act before crisis strikes.
Our story
Born from an uncomfortable truth. Built to fix it.
Entrelacs started with a simple, radical question: what if the average patient doesn’t exist?
For decades, psychological measurement operated on a shared assumption: find the pattern that fits most people, build around that center, apply it broadly. But for a large share of the people those tools are meant to help, the center produces the wrong answer. Depression doesn’t look the same in every person. Neither does anxiety, loneliness, or burnout. A score that means one thing in one person means something different in another — not because the instrument is broken, but because people genuinely differ. Decisions made on those scores compound: wrong reading, wrong pathway, months lost.
We finally have the science to model individuals, not just groups. We have the trust architecture to collect honest data. We just needed a team to build the instrument.
Today, Entrelacs measures social connection — the best-evidenced, lowest-burden determinant of mental wellbeing — for workforces first, with a regulatory trajectory into clinical care underway, and one conviction underneath it all: measure the individual, not the average.
Founder story
The scientist who stopped believing in the average person.
Hans Rocha IJzerman left the Netherlands at 18 to play basketball in the United States, and landed at a small Benedictine college in Pennsylvania whose monks had followed the same rule for fifteen centuries: attend to every individual; treat no person as interchangeable. The conviction lodged deep — and sat uneasily, for two decades, alongside the logic of his own field, which measured large groups, found the central tendency, and built its tools around the center.
What changed was the evidence. When Hans and his collaborators tested whether standard instruments for relationship quality measured the same thing across different people, the answer was no — clearly, empirically, reproducibly. If that was true for love, it was true for depression, anxiety, and loneliness — and every clinical tool built on the average was systematically missing something.
The cost of that gap had a face: his partner Daniela, a psychologist with fifteen years of practice, met it daily — scores that didn’t mean what they appeared to mean, patients sent down the wrong pathway because the instrument wasn’t built to understand them. A scientist convinced his field was asking the wrong question. A clinician who saw what that question cost.
That combination is Entrelacs.
