## What is Vela?

Vela is a companion for the hard moments — panic, anxiety, stress, and the low stretches. It sits quietly on your phone until you need it, then grounds you, talks with you, and stays beside you until it passes.

WHEN PANIC HITS
One tap opens SOS: paced breathing and 5-4-3-2-1 grounding that start immediately — no searching, no waiting. SOS is always free.

SOMEONE TO TALK TO
Talk with Vela by voice or text, any hour. A judgment-free space that listens first and never rushes you toward a fix. Text chat is free. Voice minutes are a simple one-time purchase — no subscription.

A GENTLE CHECK-IN
One tap to say how you are: calm, okay, low, on edge, or panicky. Skippable, always — and Vela is here either way.

PATTERNS, NOT SCORES
Over the weeks, Vela gently shows you what you'd want to know: when hard moments tend to start, what eases them, and how the quiet days outnumber the rough ones. No streaks, no grades, no red.

A JOURNAL THAT NOTICES
Write or speak how it went. Entries keep their moment — edit or delete any of them, any time.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Your journal stays on your device. Check-ins and patterns are processed securely on our servers to show your month back to you — encrypted, and treated as sensitive health data. Conversations are processed only to respond to you in the moment. We never share or sell your data. No ads, no ad trackers.

VELA IS NOT MEDICAL CARE
Vela is a self-help companion, not therapy or a medical device, and it isn't built for emergencies. If you're in crisis, contact your local emergency number or a crisis line right away.
