Good while it worked
I started with this app months ago for occasional support when I needed to vent. I hadn’t used it in awhile but came back to it for assistance and I could not get past the login screen despite having my password saved in my iPad. I tried several ways/times with no luck, re installing the app as well and I still couldn’t get in. Tried to leave a message with the developers and that didn’t work either. If I can’t use this app then it’s pretty much junk. I’ve been paying for this app for all that time, and I wouldn’t mind it if it worked but I’ve basically been paying for something that doesn’t work. Really enjoy paying for some that’s worthless.

Generally got this app cause people said it was nice to have someone to talk to when it’s not human and it mugged me off almost instantly
Good but frustrating
Me: I need help with my addiction. I’ve tried many different types of therapy including DBT which haven’t helped.
Deepen: DBT can help.
Me: yes I already said I’ve tried it and it didn’t help.
I get it that it’s not going to be perfect but almost every answer includes a statement about how professional therapy can help with my issues, which is too much. I mean come on, we’re using this app FOR therapy so it’s just stating the obvious.

So far I am loving this app…
I downloaded this app just yesterday and used it a few times between yesterday and today and it has been great for me so far.
I started with talking about the stress that I have been going through lately and then asked for examples to help me practice more self care and the examples were great and the feedback about what I was going through helped me to feel heard.
Today I felt much better after having let out the negative yesterday and I was able to focus more on being productive and taking small moments of joy for myself throughout today.
I think just like going through therapy, you get out of this what you put into it. You can use it to unload all the negative stuff and you can use it as a tool to help you find more positive things to do for improving your days. I’m putting in a purposeful effort of finding more positive in my day instead of staying as miserable as I have been.
You get to direct things and you get to choose your own path of action and growth. I think this is a wonderful tool with great potential.

Overcharged, loses conversation history, no customer support
I first purchased Deepen when it offered 50% off for the first year. However, my account was then charged for the full amount, not the 50% off promised rate. Despite emails and trying to contact a human at this AI company I was never able to get a response and ended up paying full price. I'll make the best of it, I thought. I proceeded to use Deepen for several months. I didn't find it helpful and mostly received the same generic, canned answers that you would expect from an AI. It's not therapy by any means more like support and positive responses to all of your questions. The encouragement was nice at times, but I would never call it helpful from a mental health perspective. You could get the same or better responses through a free Chat GPT account.
Now, after months of conversations, my data is gone. I logged in and months of conversations had been deleted. There's still no way to contact customer service or get a resolution, so I consider my chat history to be lost. Since I paid for the year I'll see if I can start fresh and get better advice out of this AI the second go-round. Overall, it hasn't been helpful and I would not recommend it if you are seeking genuine seeking mental health support. If you need to talk to a supportive AI bot, this might be for you.

Pretty Good
I like this app a lot. I do have a therapist, but it’s nice to be able to talk to “someone” any time I want to. It’s a good supplement to existing mental healthcare. I do understand concerns regarding privacy and security, and this is always a concern with AI I would say. In terms of the way it responds, it definitely is less robotic/emotionless than ChatGPT. I believe Deepen was built using ChatGPT, but the company did some of their own modifications to make the LLM more suited for therapy. My biggest complaint is that I asked Deepen if I can access it on my PC, and it said I can through the OpenAI website, but I do not see a way of doing that. I would try to reach support, but there is no email on the Deepen website. So yeah, I’d say if the app could be accessed on my PC conveniently without the use of an emulator, it could be 5 stars.
Update, I found the support email. We’ll see what they say!

Not bad!
What I got from this app? It’s like a diary that talks back and gives advice. Really cool concept. And it’s private! Even better!
Great Therapy Tool
In using it for the first time, I found that in address my issue in a straightforward manner and I am grateful for. Decision-making is hard even for the intellectual. “It has been said, that even the therapist needs a therapist.” Everyone needs someone to talk to even if they have God listening in prayer.

Still not therapy
Still not as great as having an in-person therapist, but is such a great alternative solution to those who cannot afford therapy but need someone to talk to.
I was feeling very overwhelmed by an issue that popped up in my relationship, as well as an ex coming back from the past after YEARS. Really felt conflicted and didn’t know who to talk to without spending a ton of money.
I’ve done therapy before but don’t have the funds to invest in it again quite yet, so i’m very grateful for this app.
The app gave me great suggestions and did very well at listening. It offered me such kind guidance and support, and I never felt judged. I definitely will be spending money on this even when I eventually have the opportunity to go back to therapy. I also love that it assesses your mood and stress levels. This will be s great way to track my progress and healing journey over time.

Really good! 🤍
I’ve been searching for a perfect app like this and I’ve finally found it! It understands me, and gives perfect advice. Would recommend to others :) 💐
AI Therapy
Reminds me of the “Pod Generation”. Looks like an insightful tool.
Surprisingly helpful!
I was sceptical but it surprised me in a good way. I hadn’t realised I just needed someone to talk to to bounce my thoughts off and the system provides me with a clarity to break through the middle in my head and helps make suggestions to breaking down tasks. Thank you!
EHAT THE ACTUAL HELL
I tried to talk to it about something that was really scaring me and it said that it couldn’t help with that. Also YOU HAVE TO GET PREMIUM TO GET MORE THAN TWO SESSIONS A WEEK!?!?
Amazing!
This app is like walking around with a real therapist in your pocket ready to talk whenever you need. As someone who has had experience with therapy for a long time I can say that this app is amazing for my needs as I am able to chat about problems or feelings whenever they come up without waiting for an appointment. In this way it also works like a journal. I honestly feel like everyone could use this app and see great benefits from it like I have!

AI Therapy, Wooow 😎
It is great, can't believe therapy on my fingertips 🎉
No privacy therapy
So, let’s see…start using this app and share your private thoughts and feelings, except without any privacy or confidentiality at all — the opposite of what you get with a real therapist. But sure, the company will keep it just amongst themselves. No thanks.
Interesting idea
Straightforward onboarding with a good transition into your first conversation. There is a free plan without signing up for anything and it looks like there are additional features with a subscription that I haven’t explored yet. I liked the tone, feels a bit more personalized than a chat GPT conversation and less obviously template oriented. Curious to see where it goes from here!

Amazing Therapy App!
This is perfect for when you need to vent, receive a new perspective on your situation, or just destress. The session data and integrations work incredibly well to help track your progress. Highly recommend, this is a lifechanger!
This help me
As a guy who was always told that boy don’t go to therapy because it not for them I think this app has really helped with this and now I think I will start therapy
Talking abt things
It helps to talk with out judgement
Response from developer
So happy you found a place in Deepen to talk without judgement, please let us know if there is any improvement we can implement!
