Hey Product Hunt 👋 I’m Nathaniel, one of the four makers of Xolace.
Xolace helps you figure out what you’re feeling, then supports you with the things that already work for you.
Imagine feeling drained or overwhelmed and being told to just pray about it. Funny, right? Where we come from, Ghana, that’s the daily norm. All four of us have felt it, and watched people close to us feel it too.
So about a year and a half ago, we started building Xolace for ourselves. Nothing out there fit. Some apps made you pay just to reflect on your own feelings. Others offered support for something we didn’t understand yet. How do you know the support works when you haven’t figured out what it’s for? We’ve used Xolace through our own rough patches ever since, and it’s what we want to dedicate our lives to getting right.
How it works:
• Type out what’s on your mind, or talk it through by voice with Talk
• Xolace shows you what’s underneath it (reflecting is free, always)
• Then it gives you support that fits you
Simple right 😅.
The support part is what we’re most excited about. That support starts with what already works for you: a walk, a certain playlist, texting one person. Xolace builds around those instead of pushing something on you. Soon you’ll even be able to create your own music when our library doesn’t quite fit.
But Xolace is still grounded in human connection. Knowing someone else has felt what you’re feeling carries a lot of weight. That’s why we built Lantern: real stories from people who’ve been through it, so the next person doesn’t feel alone.
We didn’t expect much launching at home, where mental health rarely comes up. Then 350+ people, mostly Ghanaians, started using it, and together they’ve done more than 1,000 sessions. That’s what convinced us this could help far more people.
🎁 Launch offer: 50% off your first 2 months of Xolace+ monthly, applied automatically.
Two asks:
What’s one small thing you do to look after yourself on a bad day? If it helps you, we want Xolace to support it.
Got a story that might help someone feeling the same thing? Email me at nathan@xolaceinc.com (any of the other co-founders at emmanuel.s@xolaceinc.com , emmanuel.a@xolaceinc.com , andrew@xolaceinc.com ) or just comment lantern, we will reach out and we’ll help you share it in Lantern. It could be the light someone else needs. You can also email just to say hi; all four of us read and reply.
@nathaniel_e_adama Just as you care for your skin regularly…care for your mind regularly
Finally we are here. Xolace is here to make a difference, and this is more than just a launch for us. It's a step towards making seeking support feel easier, safer, and more human.
We're building a better way for people to find the support they need, and actually feel heard, before think fall of the deep end.
There's still so much ahead, but today, we're grateful to see this vision out in the world.
This is Xolace. And we're just getting started.
@andrew_beniako Finally... Look at us. And yes, we’re just getting started 🔥
Excited to share Xolace with the world! ❤️ We’re on a mission to make mental health support more accessible and ensure nobody feels alone in their struggles. Every mind matters. Let’s make mental wellness a priority! 🚀
@emmanuel_acquah398 Every mind matters. Couldn’t say it better. So proud of this team
This is the moment we built toward. Thank you to everyone who tried Xolace early and told us the truth…. Tomorrow we feast
