Quote
“then I would say the two three four years after all the other psychedelics which Mia Tha is doing will come to Market as well so let's say 5 years from now the world or the landscape for mental health treatments will be really radically different from from what they know in a very good way”
Psychedelic Vantage, April 2024. After MDMA and psilocybin, Angermayer expects atai's other psychedelics on the market two to four years later; in five years mental health treatment will be radically different.
Intake
- EventA proposition written from a template on the asset, with a resolution criterion and a named public source, before the outcome is looked up. The same event resolves every person's items on it. Method ›
- A major regulator approves an atai psychedelic therapeutic
- AreaOne of five topic classes: regulatory decisions, clinical trial outcomes, company and market outcomes, payer and policy, practice adoption. Every event has one area. Method ›
- Regulatory decisions
- DeadlineThe date by which the event must happen for the item to be true. It comes only from the person's words through the anchor table. Method ›
- 15 Apr 2029 AnchorThe fixed table that turns the person's own words ('by 2026', 'Q2', 'within two years') into a deadline. The coder never invents a date. Method › · “two three four years after ... let's say 5 years from now”
- Probability
- 0.90 LexiconThe fixed five-bin table that turns a phrase into a probability. The strongest phrase in the claim sentence decides; coders never read tone. Method › · binOne of five lexicon steps: A 'will' 0.90, B 'probably' 0.70, C 'may' 0.50, D 'unlikely' 0.30, E 'never' 0.10. A stated number goes to the nearest bin for calibration only. Method › A · “I would say ... will come to Market”
- Base rateThe probability a published external study gives an event of that class and stage, fixed at intake. Halved when the item window is shorter than the class median time to decision. Never learned from the ledger's own items. Method ›
- phase2_to_approval_all · 0.15 · halvedWhen the item window is shorter than the base-rate class's median time to decision, the base rate is halved. The halved value is an upper bound that favours the person. Method › to 0.07 (window shorter than the median 72 months)
- Tags
- affiliated, retrospective
- Coder BCohen's kappa: agreement between two coders beyond chance, from -1 to 1. Reported for admit, event, deadline, bin and asserts from the second-coder match test. Method ›
- admittedA statement that passed intake: sincere, the person's own claim, forward-looking, inside the five areas, and not excluded by a reason code. Only admitted statements become items. Method › · event E-0029 · deadline 15 Apr 2029 · bin A
Registry entry
The FDA or another major regulator approves a psychedelic therapeutic developed, owned or partnered by atai Life Sciences for any indication.
TRUE on the date the FDA approval letter or Drugs@FDA entry, or the approval entry in the database of another major regulator (EMA, MHRA, TGA or another national agency), or atai's approval announcement, is dated for a psychedelic therapeutic, for any indication, that atai Life Sciences (or its successor company) developed, owns, or holds under a licence, co-development or partnering agreement at the time of approval. A psychedelic therapeutic is a compound its sponsor or the regulator describes as a psychedelic or an entactogen; esketamine and ketamine are excluded. A complete response letter, a positive advisory vote or opinion, a filing acceptance, a designation, or a compassionate or special-access scheme is not an approval. FALSE when no such approval appears in Drugs@FDA or another major regulator's database by the deadline.
Resolution source: Drugs@FDA or the approving regulator's database; atai Life Sciences press release as a secondary source
Readings: 'if we succeed, and if we medicalise psychedelics' = FDA approval of an atai-affiliated psychedelic; FDA, not atai, decides approval.

Resolution
- Effective deadlineAn item enters the score only when its deadline has passed and the outcome is true or false. A claim already known true still waits for its deadline. Method ›
- 15 Apr 2029
- Outcome1 if the registry event happened on or before the item's deadline, 0 if it did not. Written by a resolver who never sees p. Method ›
- not occurred · checked through 13 Sep 2026
- Resolver note
- No FDA, EMA, MHRA, TGA or other approval exists for any psychedelic developed, owned or partnered by atai Life Sciences or its successor AtaiBeckley (a Lilly subsidiary since 2026-09-11). FDA's 2026 novel approvals list holds no psychedelic or entactogen; the company's Q2 2026 10-Q calls itself clinical-stage; Lilly's July 2026 deal terms place BPL-003 (mebufotenin, 5-MeO-DMT) in Phase 3 and VLS-01 (DMT) in Phase 2b, with CVR payments contingent on future US approval. COMP360 (Compass Pathways, in which atai held only a shrinking equity stake, not a licence or partnership) is still in rolling NDA submission with modules due in Q4 2026 and no approval. The Drugs@FDA search form cannot be queried by GET, so the FDA approvals list was used instead.
