heyy,

heyy is a startup focused on life-changing conversations about mental health. With a mission to make mental health truly accessible and personal, heyy aims to address the significant economic burden of mental illness in India, projected to reach $1 trillion by 2030. India, with over 200 million citizens grappling with mental illness, faces a shortage of psychologists and therapists, highlighting the need for innovative approaches.

Despite the existence of over 20,000 mental health apps, heyy identifies unresolved issues and seeks to tackle the problem on a larger scale by providing conversations with trained therapists. The startup stands out by maintaining human intervention without compromising on scale, enabling anonymous and confidential conversations with Helpers while offering a suite of products to support users' well-being.

heyy's app includes features such as self-assessments, bite-sized research-backed resources, 24x7 mental health first-aid from trained psychologists, and access to experts for intensive therapy needs. With a founding date in 2021, heyy secured a $555.00K Pre Seed Round investment on 22 February 2022 from notable investors including Wavemaker, Monk’s Hill Ventures, Deep Bajaj, Sairee Chahal, and Anjan Bhojarajan.
