Inspiration
We wanted to make mental health support more accessible and less intimidating.
What it does
Our project allows users to talk to a chatbot for therapy and mental health, however the chatbot is planned to also be integrated and used with real therapists. For example, you can choose to share conversations with the chatbot with your therapist.
How we built it
We built the design of the project with Figma, and integrated Gemini AI, and used SQL for permanent data storage.
Challenges we ran into
- How to implement AI in mental health in a responsible way. For example we do not want users to become overly reliant on the app, which is why we choose to not add streaks.
- Implementing both desktop and mobile version in a timely manner. We had a functioning desktop app, but only a prototype mobile version.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
- The creation of a project with mental health as the first priority
- Implementation of AI
What we learned
How to use and merge AI with mental health care responsibly.
