Our Core Principle

Our Story is Our Own.

We believe individuals have the absolute right to choose how they work, decide what they share, and determine what support they use. Metis stands for autonomy, dignity, and the right to work in ways that honours our individual cognitive differences.

Founded on over 35 years of professional experience

The Hidden Cost of Navigating Work

For many neurodivergent people, the effort required to function at work is largely invisible.

Invisible Labour

It can mean spending hours researching tools in the hope something might help or developing workarounds in silence.

Environmental Friction

Constantly adjusting to schedules and expectations that don't align with how your mind works creates cognitive overload.

Energy Drain

This invisible effort drains energy that could otherwise be spent on problem-solving, creativity, and strategic thinking.

Our Mission

Reducing the Burden, Reclaiming the Energy

Metis exists to turn that invisible effort into visible ease. By providing a private space for discovery, we shift the focus from "how to survive the day" to "how to thrive in your work".

We address these hidden costs by offering curated, research-backed clarity that respects your time and your cognitive energy. Our approach is built on the following values:

Deep Dives

Safety First

Privacy: Your Data, Your Control

We know that for the neurodivergent community, privacy isn't just a policy, it's safety.

  • Explicit Consent

    We collect sensitive data, such as neurotype, only with your consent and for the sole purpose of personalisation.

  • Proactive Protection

    We use the strongest available encryption and adhere strictly to the NZ Privacy Act 2020 as well as international privacy standards like the GDPR.

  • Professional Autonomy

    You decide how and when our products access your information.
