Completely anonymous.

Wysa's clinically validated AI gives immediate support as the first step of care, and human coaching for those who need more. Transform how supported your teams and families feel.
The business case for transforming how we support employees and families
Wysa has held over half a billion AI chat conversations with more than five million people about their mental health across 95 countries. The worrying trend we saw in employee mental health led us to conduct in-depth studies of employees in USA and UK, as well as Wysa's user base, to understand why current models aren't working.
Our findings make a compelling case for employers to create early, anonymous, unlimited care and show how starting with Wysa's conversational AI actually saves on the total cost of care.
Our research shows that as many as 4 in 10 employees suffer from symptoms of depression or anxiety, yet less than 7% access EAP due to stigma, lack of awareness and time constraints. While talking to Wysa, 42% of employees opened up about their declining mental health.
Limited support means people delay access. Symptoms worsen and recovery takes longer. Every year, unaddressed depression and anxiety cost $580 per employee in absenteeism, lost productivity and turnover. That's $30 million a year for an employer with 50,000 people.
The emotional bond people build with Wysa is as deep as that with a human therapist, and 9 in 10 users find talking to Wysa helpful. AI-led support has been proven to improve symptoms while taking on 80% of the support load, to free up human support for where it's really needed.
How Does It Work?
Step 1 : Opening up to an AI coach
- Conversational AI creates an anonymous, safe space to work through worries and stressors, preventing them from escalating in severity and towards illness
- Wysa's AI is clinically proven to create a therapeutic alliance equivalent to a human therapist within the first week
- Most people feel better after their first conversation and lean on Wysa for on-demand support, whenever needed
Step 2: Structured programs and on-demand self-care
- Wysa's AI conversational care guides users through both curated CBT programs and on-demand support
- In Wysa's Clinical Programs, the AI checks in every morning and evening, and can also be supplemented by a human coach or therapist. The programs are clinically validated to reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety
- For day-to-day stress, Wysa offers on-demand self-care through 150+ evidence-based exercises, including resources for anxiety, sleep, handling difficult conversations, and improving productivity.
Step 3: Work with a professional
- Wysa coaches offer 1-on-1 sessions, along with unlimited messaging between sessions. If chosen, employees can also be redirected to in-house EAP support through Wysa
- Wysa's conversational AI takes on 80% of the load by supporting people with sub-clinical symptom levels and guiding them through proactive prevention routines
- Those who need professional support can access it sooner and as much as needed
Step 4: Customised escalation pathways
- Wysa's SOS feature guides people toward local and national crisis care helplines
- The SOS feature also offers the ability to create a personal safety plan and practice grounding exercises
- Wysa's AI continuously screens for people in crisis and facilitates signposting to local helplines
