Meret Solutions

What Meret Solutions does

Meret Solutions is a privately held, founder-led digital health company headquartered in Madison, Wisconsin, that develops the MARS (Meret Assessment and Reporting System) platform for suicide risk and mental health screening. The platform delivers procedurally invariant, respondent-reported screening using validated electronic patient-reported outcome tools, most notably the eC-SSRS (electronic Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale), which has been used in clinical trials supporting FDA drug approvals and is grounded in over five decades of computerized-assessment research originated by co-founder John Greist and Warner Slack at the University of Wisconsin.

The product is offered as a digital screening platform accessible via any internet-enabled device, with automated scheduling, instant EHR integration, and audit-ready documentation that supports Joint Commission compliance in healthcare settings. Pricing is quote-based and subscription-oriented, sold through direct enterprise engagement with hospitals and clinics and through direct sales to schools and universities. A flagship distribution channel is the partnership with the Rural Behavioral Health Institute (RBHI), whose proprietary Screening Linked to Care (SLTC) model pairs MARS screening with same-day clinical follow-up; through RBHI, Meret has reached 160+ schools and screened 60,000+ young people across Montana, Georgia, Illinois, and Oregon since 2023.

Meret is privately held with three co-founders (John Greist as Chief Medical Officer, Christopher Snyder as CEO, and Revere Greist as COO) and a small extended team that includes engineering, product, and business development functions. The company does not report external institutional funding, has no disclosed revenue, and has not announced M&A, IPO, or major restructuring activity. Revenue mechanics are subscription-based for direct enterprise contracts and managed-service in nature through partner-led implementations such as RBHI's SLTC program.

Broad incumbents

• Headspace Health: Headspace Health (Ginger + Headspace) provides digital mental health, therapy, and screening services to employers, health plans, and educational institutions. It addresses suicide risk screening as part of a broad wellness offering, competing with Meret for the same institutional buyers.
• Spring Health: Spring Health is a global mental health benefits provider combining precision screening, therapy, and coaching for employers and health plans. Its proprietary assessment engine and integrated care model place it in direct competition with Meret's screening-plus-referral approach at the enterprise level.
• Talkspace: Talkspace is a publicly traded online therapy platform partnering with health systems, employers, and schools. Its enterprise B2B motion and behavioral health focus broadly overlap Meret's healthcare and education segments, though Talkspace delivers therapy rather than validated suicide risk screening.
• Lyra Health: Lyra Health is a venture-backed mental health benefits platform serving employers and health plans with therapy, coaching, and screening. It competes with Meret for institutional mental health budgets in healthcare and education but offers a much broader portfolio rather than specializing in suicide risk screening.

Direct peers

• TimelyCare: TimelyCare provides 24/7 virtual mental health and counseling services to college students, including self-guided screening tools and crisis support. Its student-focused delivery model and emphasis on early identification of at-risk students directly overlaps Meret's K-12 and higher-education value proposition.
• Uwill: Uwill offers colleges and universities on-demand mental health support, including teletherapy, crisis services, and wellness tools. Comparable to Meret in serving student populations through institutional partnerships with a screening-to-care pathway.
• Mantra Health: Mantra Health is a digital mental health platform purpose-built for colleges and universities, offering screening, therapy, and psychiatric care. Like Meret, it operates at the intersection of validated digital assessment and student mental health, making it the closest direct competitor in the school-based screening niche.

Emerging players

• Charlie Health: Charlie Health provides virtual intensive outpatient and mental health treatment specifically for teens, adolescents, and young adults. It overlaps with Meret's youth suicide prevention mission and shares a clinical-grade, outcomes-driven positioning, but focuses on treatment delivery rather than screening instruments.
• Koko: Koko builds AI- and peer-assisted digital mental health interventions, including self-report screening tools used in clinical and educational contexts. Its emphasis on digital self-report and candor in sensitive topics mirrors Meret's eC-SSRS rationale, positioning it as a methodological peer.

Others

• Quartet Health: Quartet Health is a technology-enabled mental health coordination platform that helps payers and providers identify patients needing behavioral health care and route them to appropriate treatment. Its screening-plus-referral workflow and integration into clinical systems are architecturally aligned with Meret's Screening Linked to Care model.
