## About

Wysa is an AI-based mental health and wellbeing product. People can use it to vent or talk through negative thoughts and emotions, and the page says it can help them cope with anxiety. It is available at any time of day, with no appointments and no waiting.

The page describes Wysa as anonymous and stigma-free. It also says every care pathway includes human oversight, and that the AI never makes decisions on its own. Wysa is not designed for crises such as abuse or suicidal feelings, and the page directs users to a country-specific suicide hotline in an emergency.

Wysa is aimed at individuals, employers, payors, providers and health systems. For organisations, the site lists support for enterprise deployments, guided referral and between-session care. Wysa also says it works with April Health on the Collaborative Care Model in primary care, and that Kins, a physical therapy provider, is now part of Wysa.

The site says peer-reviewed research supports improvements in mood and wellbeing, and cites a JMIR study of 1,213 users. It reports that users with app access averaged 6.57 coaching sessions compared with 0.55 for those using coaching alone.

Users must be at least 18 to use Wysa, and people aged 13 to 18 are asked to read the terms with a parent or guardian. Wysa is not designed for children under 13.

The page does not state a price for individual users. It says the product is free for people to use when describing it on the home page, and offers organisations a discovery call to discuss deployment.
