Go Team! Good luck! Hope this one will fix me 🤗

Anton Ponikarovskii

@puhoshville Thanks so much! 💙 Anna's here to support you, not fix you - you're not broken! She's really good at helping people work through relationship stuff and tough emotions. What made you interested in trying AI therapy vs traditional?

I was building something similar for breakup recovery a year ago, at a time llms were not good enough, but the current generation definitely can handle it. Glad you guys have built it, much needed to keep sane in the exponentially changing world we're living in. Good luck with the launch!

Aleksandr Lavrinenko

@konstantin_netyliov1 Thank you for the support! Yeap, break up is one of hardest case, when people would like to talk painful events and get support, without being afraid of being judge by other humans. We have bunch of users who will are helping with going through, and based on their feedback -it's really helping them! So current LLMS + our architecture + expertise of real therapist helping out here!

Anton Ponikarovskii

@konstantin_netyliov1 Thanks! Breakups are actually our #1 use case - you were ahead of the curve. Since you were building in that space, what do you think is the most critical thing AI therapy needs to get right for breakup recovery?

Sergey Bakaev

@konstantin_netyliov1 thank you Kanstantsin! Remember our conversation on Founders CY about it!

Congrats 🎉

Does Lovon learn and adapt to personal context over time? For example, If I work on specific anxiety triggers, will the system remember my progress/struggles?

Aleksandr Lavrinenko

@motuqs Thank you Kirill!
Yes, Lovon learn from each session about user, share insights and use this insight in the next sessions. In case of anxiety trigger it will remember all your occasions, and help you to reflect on them and progress

Sergey Bakaev

@motuqs thanks Kirill!

Anton Ponikarovskii

@motuqs it remembers everything about your prev conversations

Love the mission behind! Voice feature is nice , sometimes it is easy to use voice while walking for example. Congrats on the launch 🚀
Anton Ponikarovskii

@jalil_tahirov Thanks so much! Yeah, we built it voice-first exactly for that - many of our users talk to Anna while walking, commuting, or just lying in bed when they need to process something.

What kind of emotional challenges would make you reach for voice therapy vs just talking to a friend?

Sergey Bakaev

@jalil_tahirov Jalil, thank you to Mars and back!

Aleksandr Lavrinenko

@jalil_tahirov Thank you man! Voice is the future!

i hope your product contains guide-rails that get triggered on special occasions and give advice to the user to reach out to a human therapist. AI can be sometimes an echo-chamber that amplifies our blindspots. But I am sure you app can help many just starting to look inside. Congrats on the launch!

Aleksandr Lavrinenko

@respira Hey, thank you so much! You are absolutely right! In case of special occasions we indeed advise sets to reach out to humans! We care about our users, and if something is need more closer human attention - we help users to get that support

Sergey Bakaev

@respira yes, of course, Mihao!

Thank you!

Madalina B

This is awesome!!!

Aleksandr Lavrinenko

@madalina_barbu Thank you! It is indeed :)

Anton Ponikarovskii

@madalina_barbu Thank you! 🙏 We're really excited to bring Lovon to the world. Have you ever struggled to find someone to talk to when dealing with relationship or emotional challenges?

Sergey Bakaev

@madalina_barbu ooooh! thank you Madalina!

Really interesting approach 👏 I like that you’re focusing on evidence-based frameworks instead of just making another AI chatbot. The voice-first experience sounds especially promising — feels much more human.

Anton Ponikarovskii

@abod_rehman Thanks so much! 💙 The voice piece has been a revelation - we've seen people open up way more authentically when they can just speak vs. type. And our PhD psychologist keeps us honest on the evidence-based side, which is critical.

Have you tried any AI mental health tools before? Curious what's worked (or what's been missing) for you!

Sergey Bakaev

@abod_rehman thanks Abdul!!

Aleksandr Lavrinenko

@abod_rehman Thank you for your support! You made us product of the day and in top of monthly products!

andrew white

congrats on the launch, anton 🙌 the voice-first approach sounds cool. i've been building ai agents for my own workflow and the difference between typing and talking is night and day. feels like you're actually being heard vs filling out a form.


curious about the crisis detection - is that real-time during the conversation or pattern-based over multiple sessions?

Aleksandr Lavrinenko
@andrew_white_13 Hey Andrew! Both! Anna can work both inside session and taking into account progress and events over recent sessions!
Anton Ponikarovskii

@andrew_white_13 Thanks Andrew! Totally agree - voice just hits different. The "being heard" vs "filling a form" is exactly the feeling we're going for.

Crisis detection works both ways - real-time during conversation (certain phrases, emotional intensity) + pattern-based across sessions (deteriorating mood trends, recurring themes). The combo gives us better coverage.

You mentioned building AI agents - what kind of workflows are you automating? Always curious what other builders are working on!

Sergey Bakaev

@andrew_white_13 thanks a lot, Andrew!

Emil Lio

Excellent work, guys! I really like your app - I’ve been a subscriber since the very beginning, and I love how you keep evolving. It helped me in my relationship by highlighting things we weren’t thinking about, but that were actually the pain points we’d been avoiding.

What I like most now is that it gives me real-time feedback on my thoughts and emotions and helps me make better everyday decisions guided by my values, not by fear or emotion. Wish you luck!

Anton Ponikarovskii

@emil_davletov This means the world to us - thank you! 💙 Early users like you are the reason we keep pushing to make Lovon better every week. The "pain points we'd been avoiding" insight is so real - sometimes we need that outside voice to name what's actually happening.

I'm curious - that shift from "fear/emotion-driven" to "values-driven" decisions is exactly what our therapy framework aims for. Was there a specific conversation or moment with Anna where that clicked for you, or did it happen more gradually over time?

Sergey Bakaev

@emil_davletov Emil, thank you! Highly appreciate your input here :)

Aleksandr Lavrinenko

@emil_davletov Thank so much! We are lucky to have your support, that helped us to be here :)

Kristina Grits

This hits home. Went through a tough time a few years ago and honestly the worst part was not having anyone to talk to whenever I needed. Wish I had this then. Congrats on shipping!

Anton Ponikarovskii

@kristina__grits Thanks Kristina! That's exactly why we built the 24/7 voice feature - those 3am moments when you need someone most are when traditional therapy isn't available. The fact that you can just talk to Anna whenever hits differently than texting.

What kind of support would have helped you most during those moments - someone to listen, or someone to challenge your thinking?

Kristina Grits

@ponikarovskii I’d say both... but more someone to challenge my thinking. In such situations, it's easy to get stuck in the same thoughts and have a "narrow view", so it’s good when someone (or something) helps you look at things from a different angle.

Sergey Bakaev

@ponikarovskii  @kristina__grits thank you for your point of view, Kristina! Very meaningful!

Aleksandr Lavrinenko

@kristina__grits Thank you Kristina! Thank to your support we are flying to the moon!
