Our take

Taking care of our mental health has never been more important. Despite this, the process for finding a therapist that works for you has never changed, leading many to shop around, become frustrated and never get the help they need.

Matcha is trying to change all that. By using AI and machine learning, they are building client and provider profiles, and using data to better match therapists and patients together.

The startup is focused initially on matching therapists but in the long run is seeking to provide a matching service for physical health carers as well.

The difficulty for Matcha will be reaching a critical mass of providers to provide an excellent service for any new user on its platform. However, its decision to charge no membership/subscription fee to providers while delivering a set of clients, should accelerate its growth in this side of the market.
