In their own words
GiGi
GiGi, also called HeyGiGi, is a web-based mental health education membership focused on practical skills for emotions, relationships, parenting and everyday challenges. Its material includes games, brain science, stories, films, tools, an AI coach and live community experiences. Each day brings a rotating game, a Daily Spark and selected articles, videos or activities. GiGi can converse, recommend content and support structured lessons and role-play; those last two modes are Premium features. Free access includes a game each day, up to three games a week, the first Learning Journey milestone, free articles and videos, and ten GiGi messages a day with an account. Premium adds a full archive, custom Toolkit lists, premium modes, a larger daily message allowance and gems each billing period. The listed plans are Free at free, Premium monthly at $9.99 a month, and Premium annual at $99.99 a year. Conversations are for adults and are not therapy, clinical care, diagnosis or crisis support. Signed-in conversations are stored until deleted and sent to an AI provider contractually barred from training on them.
Noa by Anshap
Noa by Anshap is a mental-wellbeing assistant that uses AI to listen and provide support, built by psychologists and grounded in evidence-based approaches such as CBT. It can connect users with matched, credential-verified specialists; the first consultation is free. The maker says conversations are end-to-end encrypted and personal data is not sold, shared, or used for advertising. Psychologist-hosted Circles are one-hour, audio-only group sessions where participants can listen or type without using their real names. Live channels include WhatsApp, iOS, and Android, while Microsoft Teams is in pilot. For organisations, Noa supports configurable handoffs to EAP providers, internal counselling teams, and Anshap's specialist network, along with region-aware routing to iCALL, Vandrevala, and AASRA crisis hotlines. Live reporting includes a web leadership dashboard, PDF cohort reports, and CSV/API exports of aggregated cohort metrics. Exported reports are cohort-level and anonymised at source. Anshap describes an eight-week organisational pilot with no commitment, designed with the organisation.
