Artificial intelligence to solve the mental health crisis

Demand for mental health support is increasing, but the supply of clinicians is not.

Artificial intelligence can expand how we offer support to patients and extend the capabilities of the mental health workforce.

Safe and clinically validated artificial intelligence

The groundwork of Youper is evidence-based interventions - treatments that have been studied extensively and proven successful. Youper has been proven clinically effective at reducing symptoms of anxiety and depression by researchers at Stanford University.

What our users are saying

Youper uses cognitive behavioral therapy techniques, but by asking questions and learning what works for you, it makes you feel at ease and supported. It cannot replace a real therapist, but it is undoubtedly an excellent place to start.

Stella

I’ve been struggling with depression and anxiety my whole life, and even more so since the pandemic. A friend recommended Youper, and I decided to give it a shot. Within two hours, I felt completely grounded and much more clear-minded.

Andrea

It’s not like talking to a real person, but it’s dang close. I’ve been in therapy before, and it sometimes feels very judgmental, but Youper gets rid of all that and saves the helpful knowledge and support. I love this app.
