Moodsearch is an AI mental health companion that gets to know you over time. Talk to it about whatever is going on in your life — relationships, anxiety, work, family, burnout, decisions, insecurities, or the thoughts you can't seem to get out of your head. Moodsearch doesn't just respond to each conversation in isolation. As you keep talking, it builds context about you and looks for recurring patterns across what you say: the situations that set you off, the ways you tend to react, the thoughts you keep returning to, and the places where you may be starting to change. What does Moodsearch do? Moodsearch helps you make sense of your thoughts, emotions, and behavior by identifying patterns across your conversations. Its insights are informed by a library of more than 100 psychological and behavioral patterns reviewed by therapists and mental health professionals. As you use Moodsearch, it looks for recurring themes involving things like overthinking, relationships, self-worth, avoidance, anxiety, boundaries, perfectionism, attachment, and more. You can talk to Moodsearch whenever something is on your mind — whether you're trying to understand an argument, a relationship, a decision, a stressful day, or a feeling you can't quite explain. Over time, Moodsearch connects what you say across different moments in your life. It can help you notice what keeps repeating, what tends to bring certain patterns out, and where your responses may be starting to change. The result is a growing record of how you think and feel — and a way to notice things about yourself that can be difficult to see from inside your own head. Who built Moodsearch? Moodsearch is built by therapists and mental health professionals, researchers, engineers, and designers working together to create a better way to understand yourself through the things you say every day.
