Wysa

Wysa is a mental-wellbeing app built around an AI chatbot that walks users through CBT, DBT, and mindfulness exercises for stress, anxiety, sleep, and low mood. Built by Touchkin in Bengaluru, it offers a free anonymous consumer app plus paid tiers with human coaches, and a B2B business selling into employers and health plans. The company cites 45+ peer-reviewed studies and over 6 million users across 105 countries, and it received FDA Breakthrough Device Designation in May 2022, though it has never received FDA clearance. Wysa Copilot extends the platform to care providers for between-session patient engagement.

Be clear-eyed about what it is: a self-help and coaching tool, not therapy. It is not for crisis situations, diagnosis, or medical decisions. Some enterprise customers have churned, with at least one university ending its contract over cost and engagement questions, and premium pricing is not published for the B2B side.

Download the free app (iOS/Android) and start chatting anonymously; no account required for core features. Employers and health plans deploy Wysa as a benefit with anonymized aggregate analytics. Clinicians use Wysa Copilot to assign exercises and track engagement between sessions.
