AI Compassion Coach
The world's first and only chatbot exclusively focused on compassion.
Compassionate AI
The AI Compassion Coach was conceived when I was in the TechScaler accelerator program and it was as part of an exploration in to healthy aging and longevity which led me to the emotional aspects of aging and how it can be challenging. This led me to create the AI Compassion Coach and I was one of the promising few selected in my cohort to pitch in our showcase day.
Shortly after my mom started her cancer journey and the Compassion Coach helped her through and I was inspired to bring this to others. That is when Gabriele Maddaloni joined me and we started building, beta testing and speaking with health care instituations.
Compassion Growth Framework™
Just like with physical strength, emotional resilience and self-compassion deepen with repetition, reflection, and progressive challenge. The Compassion Coach helps users growth their self-compassion muscles through a Progressive Compassion Pathway model which is a growth-based response model that gently shifts tone, depth, and inner work over time using the following six elements: language of self-kindness, emotional literacy, owning needs & boundaries, reflective framing, willingness to go deeper, and self validation.

Safety Guardrails
We were very intentional with our safety guardrails and have created a modular classifier to identify concerning content like self-harm. We also have crisis routing and notifications along with a customized way of responding. Apart from this our AI is explainable so we can audit its responses.
