Our projects
The work we are building right now.
Every project we take on begins with a real need in care. Below is the one closest to our hearts today, a project we are shaping at this very moment, hand in hand with the people who will use it.
Featured project
MindBridge
Artificial intelligence in the service of psychotherapy.
MindBridge is our current flagship project, a careful effort to bring thoughtful artificial intelligence into the practice of psychotherapy. We are building it now, hand in hand with therapists, so that technology supports the human relationship at the heart of good mental health care rather than standing in its way.

The idea
Why we are building MindBridge.
Therapists carry a great deal. They hold space for people at their most vulnerable, and between sessions they carry notes, plans and worries that rarely fit into the hours of a day. Too often the paperwork and the small administrative tasks take time that belongs with the people in their care.
MindBridge is our answer to that quiet strain. It is designed to lighten the load, to help therapists and clients hold the thread of care from one session to the next, and to protect the privacy of every word that is shared. It listens for the moments where it can help, and it steps back everywhere else.
Above all, MindBridge is built to support therapists, and never to replace them. The bond between a person and their therapist is something technology should protect and honour, and every choice we make begins right there. This is a project we are building slowly, and building right.
Our intentions
What MindBridge is designed to do.
The project is still taking shape, yet our intentions for it are clear and firm. These four promises guide every decision as we build.
Lighten the load
MindBridge is designed to ease the everyday paperwork, so therapists can spend more of their time and attention with the people in front of them.
Support continuity
It aims to help therapists and clients hold the thread of care between sessions, so progress is never lost in the gaps.
Protect privacy
Every word shared in therapy is treated with the deepest care. Privacy and safety come first, at every single step.
Stay human
The therapist and the client remain at the centre, always. MindBridge supports the relationship, and never stands in for it.
