What it is

ephoria is a digital mental health coach for everyday challenges and wellbeing, available on iOS and Android. Users can discuss difficult thoughts, goals and challenging situations with an AI coach, then follow solution-focused quests and exercises in small steps. Daily reminders, suggestions, tailored audio meditations, speech recognition and a wellbeing library round out the app. The maker describes its approach as evidence-based solution-focused coaching combined with mindfulness, acceptance and emotion-regulation concepts. If possible acute crisis signs are detected, the app displays support options and contact points. A Helsana pilot pre–post assessment of 159 participants reported reduced GHQ-12 psychological distress and an overall three-month effect of d = 0.59. Users can delete app data, and the maker says entries remain private. Premium costs CHF 14.90 a month with a 7-day trial; there is no free plan, although eligible Helsana customers can use it free.
