What is Wysa?
Wysa is an AI-based mental health support service for individuals and organizations. It gives users an anonymous place to discuss difficult thoughts and emotions, work through self-help activities, and stay engaged with care. The service is designed to support several stages of the behavioral health journey, including early self-help, guided referrals, and support between clinical sessions.
Wysa also works with healthcare providers, employers, insurers, and care teams. Its care pathways include human oversight, and its technology is intended to fit into existing clinical workflows rather than make independent care decisions. The company says its approach is informed by peer-reviewed research and designed for secure, large-scale deployment.
Wysa is not an emergency or crisis service and does not provide medical or clinical advice. People experiencing a medical or mental health emergency should contact an appropriate emergency service, crisis line, or qualified professional.
