Anonymous mental health support for students — talk to an AI, find peers who understand you, and connect safely when you’re ready.
The problem
Many students struggle with stress, anxiety, and loneliness but don’t seek help due to stigma, lack of access, or fear of being judged.
The solution
A privacy-first app where students can talk anonymously to an AI, get matched with peers facing similar issues, and choose if and when to connect.
Who it's for
For high school students who need safe, accessible mental health support. It matters because early support can prevent long-term issues and reduce isolation.
What we built & tested
A mobile-first prototype with AI chat, anonymous onboarding, and a peer-matching system, designed and tested for clarity, safety, and ease of use.
Next step
Refine AI behavior, test peer-matching in real scenarios, onboard verified psychologists, and launch a pilot with early users.
