therappai is your personal AI therapist with 24/7 live video & chat sessions, crisis buddy alerts, mood tracking & journaling, and evidence-based CBT/DBT tools. Secure, private, and affordable—always there when stress, anxiety, or addiction cravings hit.

Hey everyone! I built therappai because of two things: As the founder of a hyper-growth startup in the past, I’ve battled anxiety and mental health challenges for most of my life. Accessing support was always too expensive, too slow, or simply unavailable when I needed it most. Traditional therapy is incredibly valuable, but it’s also: Hard to access (waiting lists, scheduling headaches). Expensive (one session often costs more than a month of Netflix, Spotify, and Prime combined). Inconsistent (help isn’t there in the moment you’re struggling). ChatGPT and generic chatbots don’t solve this either — they aren’t built for therapy. They lack context, personalization, and the emotional safety you need when you’re in crisis. That’s why I created therappai. ✨ What’s new & unique: Live AI video therapy sessions – realistic, face-to-face support with real life AI avatars. 24/7 availability – help anytime, not just during business hours. Crisis Buddy alerts – your trusted friends/family can be notified if the AI detects you’re at risk (relapse, suicidal ideation). Mood tracking, journaling & CBT/DBT tools – daily, evidence-based support. Affordable & private – secure, encrypted, and costs less than a single in-person session. I don’t see AI as replacing therapists — I see it as bridging the gap. For millions of people who currently have no access to support, therappai can be a safe, affordable starting point. 🙏 I’d love your thoughts, feedback, and ideas. Do you see AI therapy as part of the future of mental health? — James

Life-changing support in my pocket I’ve tried therapy apps before, but therappai is on another level. The live AI video therapy sessions feel surprisingly real and supportive, and having 24/7 access means I don’t have to wait days or weeks to talk things through. The Crisis Buddy alerts give me peace of mind knowing that my loved ones can be notified if I’m really struggling. I also love the mood tracking, journaling, and CBT tools—they’ve helped me build healthier habits day by day. It’s affordable, private, and actually there when I need it most. Finally, an app that makes mental health support feel accessible to everyone. Highly recommend.

Coming from a FIFO background, I’ve seen firsthand what the lack of accessible mental health support can do to people. Too often, when you’re away from family and friends, there simply isn’t someone to talk to when you need it most. My parents were also emergency services workers, so I know the toll these high-pressure industries can take on people when support isn’t available right away. That’s why I think Therappai is a genuine game changer. Having 24/7 access to someone — even if it’s AI — who can listen, guide, and provide tools for coping is exactly what’s been missing in industries like FIFO, emergency services, and so many more. It’s not just convenience, it’s potentially life-changing support in real time. I love it. Well done, James — this has the power to do so much good for so many people.
