Flourish Press Room

Where psychology, AI, design, and purpose come together to help people flourish.

In a world of bold claims of AI for mental health, we've built the first and only AI well-being product that demonstrates REAL evidence.

While many AI mental health apps focus solely on conversation, Flourish delivers an evidence-based, end-to-end care experience built for safety and real-world impact. Our HIPAA-compliant, AI-native platform combines agentic AI with clinician supervision to provide structured, personalized support that goes beyond chat—offering guided interventions, continuity over time, and clear pathways to additional care when needed.

Flourish has produced the world’s first—and only—randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on AI for proactive mental health and now collaborates with 19 research labs worldwide at the forefront of AI and healthcare. With 4.9+ App Store ratings across 1,700+ reviews, consistent outperformance in third-party evaluations, and 10,000+ monthly active users (and growing), Flourish is setting a new evidence standard for AI in mental health.
