Our take
In the US, millions of people suffer from mental illness each year. This is not only a detriment to individuals, but to businesses as well - with research suggesting that depression and anxiety disorders lead to $1 trillion in lost productivity worldwide each year.
Lyra Health is out to tackle these issues head-on, by delivering mental health care for employees. The company offers video counselling sessions and one-to-one messaging to help users with a variety of conditions including anxiety, depression and substance use disorder.
The company is a key player in the sector alongside peers like Calm, Genoa and Talkspace. Impressively, it boasts a 90% satisfaction rate across its more than 2 million members, demonstrating the impact its products can have.
In 2025, Lyra Health launched a ‘clinical-grade’ chatbot to its offering. This has been met with mixed feelings due to evidence that AI can act unpredictably in response to mental health concerns. It will take time to see whether this feature will enhance or diminish the user experience.
