Our Story

The trusted resource
that should have existed.

Neurovetted started as a mission to protect the neurodivergent community from predatory online service providers. It became something bigger.

Why Neurovetted Exists

Online business has a serious problem.

Coaches who disappear after payment. Marketers who manufacture false urgency. Service providers who promise transformations they cannot deliver - then make refunds nearly impossible. If you've been burned by someone you hired online, you are not alone, and it was not your fault.

Neurodivergent people are disproportionately targeted by these practices. Urgency tactics exploit ADHD impulsivity. Vague deliverables leave autistic clients without the clarity they need. Testimonials are fabricated. Credentials are invented.

"It started as a mission to protect the neurodivergent community - but the truth is, predatory providers don't discriminate. Anyone with a credit card and a problem to solve is a target."

So Dana Skalin built the resource she always wished existed: an independent directory where every listed provider has been rigorously reviewed, scored, and verified - with zero pay-to-play.

Founder, Neurovetted
Psychology Neuroscience Public Administration Research & Statistics

With 15 years in policy, finance, and legislation for students with special education needs, Dana was uniquely positioned to identify and fight back against the systemic exploitation of vulnerable consumers in the online services industry.

She has spent her career advocating for people who are routinely underserved by systems designed without them in mind. Neurovetted is a direct extension of that work - applied to a landscape where the systems meant to protect consumers simply don't exist yet.

Who Neurovetted Serves

Built for the neurodivergent community.

What We Stand For

The principles we don't compromise on.

🚫

Zero Pay-to-Play

A listing is never purchased - it is earned by passing an independent review. No exceptions, no workarounds, no tiered access.

🔬

Independent Vetting

Every provider is evaluated against our published 100-point scoring rubric. The standards are public so nothing is arbitrary.

🧠

Neurodivergent-Affirming

All listed providers meet standards for safe, affirming practices - no panic-inducing tactics, no manipulation, clear communication.

📖

Radical Transparency

Our ethics code, scoring rubric, and vetting criteria are all published publicly. Nothing about our process is hidden or vague.

🌍

Global & Inclusive

Open to providers and consumers from anywhere in the world. Ethical business practices aren't geography-dependent.
