Our take

Mental health has become a dominant part of society after many years of falling into a taboo topic category, leaving many going without support. The issue is now so widely recognized that it has been included in the Sustainable Development Goals. Kintsugi is a platform and app offering a way to take hold of people's mental health through voice journaling and self-care documenting.

The company uses Voice API to recognize signs of anxiety and depression when users are documenting. The founders have backgrounds in tech and built the company idea off of their experiences struggling to get support in mental health fast enough. The outcome of these findings is an immediate way for users to get help and a way for employers and primary caregivers to understand what support users need by the app detecting the problem.

The company has raised significant funding since its inception in 2019 and has recently won Frost & Sullivan Best Practices Technology Innovation Leadership Award. Kintsugi has already built an impressive client roster and caught the attention of many, so this innovative idea seems to be taking off.
