Problem Statement
A recent National Youth Mental Health Study revealed that nearly a third of young people aged 15 to 35 experience persistent feelings of emptiness, tension, or distress, underscoring the growing national priority on mental health. Recognizing the importance of mental well-being for a functional society, EBI addresses key challenges faced by three user personas:
-
Therapy users frustrated by repeating their stories when switching providers or tracking progress.
-
Regular journalers who struggle to explore emotions or gain new perspectives.
-
Individuals dealing with significant life events, seeking ways to manage overwhelming feelings.
Proposed Solution
EBI is a journaling app designed to help users explore and communicate
their thoughts clearly, with data-driven insights into their progress.
Key features include AI-powered prompts for deeper emotional exploration
and auto-generated, shareable summaries that extract key insights, making
it easier for users to reflect and share their journeys.
Ultimately, we aspire to be a community where anyone seeking mental health
support feels at home. Our mission goes beyond journaling — we aim to raise
mental health awareness and foster well-being for everyone.
