Wysa is a digital psychosocial tool that provides AI conversational chatbot support. The conversational agent acts as a companion, and understands, empathizes, and guides users through exercises grounded in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and motivational intervention. Participants can progressively work through learning different skills and practice them in their daily life. The app also provides a repository of tools to manage problems and SOS resources for high distress.
