A 35 year old entrepreneur in Boston, Mann has served as Vice President of Marketing for the Association of Talent Development in Boston. Sober Grid was created with the goal of sharing a tool that makes peer support available at the touch of a button with the millions of Americans struggling with addiction and the hundreds of millions of people struggling with addiction worldwide. Sober Grid was created by individuals who have struggled with sobriety and understand the need for a community like the one Sober Grid provides. In June 2018 Sober Grid purchased Ascent, an evidence-based peer recovery coaching service in Ohio. Through this acquisition, Sober Grid is now able to provide HIPPA compliant 24/7 certified peer coaching support through their application. The company is backed by the National Science Foundation and National Institute of Health. The company is partnered with researcheda from the UPenn Perelman School of Medicine and Harvard Medical School where it works on its Artificial Intelligence capabilities to predict relapses and hopefully later intervene. The company has appeared on Fox, CNBC, Entrepreneur, NY Metro, New York Times, The Boston Globe, Forbes, and many other media outlets. FeaturesThe design of Sober Grid has two main features: the newsfeed and the grid. The newsfeed contains a time-oriented list of posts from Sober Grid users. The grid displays users based on their proximity. On the newsfeed, users have the option to turn on the “burning desire” feature.[4] An additional feature, added in September 2018 allows users to pay for certified peer coaching.
