The Aichologist team combines strong technical expertise with extensive experience in psychology and workplace wellbeing.
Mission
I experienced both depression and workplace burnout in my youth.
I survived both, but I know what it feels like to fight that battle alone.
Most people never get the help they need because it isn’t available or affordable when they need it.
That’s why we’re building Aichologist.
