Building a foundational AI model rooted in real psychology
Why Cami?
Cami is addressing the mental health crisis, particularly amongst adolescents, young social media users and adults, through our ground-breaking next generation conversational AI.
Cami is available 24/7, providing relaxed and thoughtful conversations personalised to you. Anonymous and secure, it offers a private and safe space for you to communicate, through an interactive, simple intuitive interface.
Try talking to Cami anytime about what’s on your mind. The aim is to help you manage your emotions, and build mental resilience through positive coping strategies that help you deal with today’s world. Based on early prevention, Cami brings psychological first aid to all who need it.
Therapeutic methods which adapt to your emotional state and specific needs. Powered by a foundational AI model rooted in real psychotherapy data from actual sessions, plus clinical data, theory and CBT. We outperform generic and purely theory based LLMs in terms of efficacy and safety.
We use advanced natural language processing (NLP) to detect not just keywords, but subtle emotional cues like tone, context, and changes in sentiment. Grounded in science, using evidence-based techniques, we are building a system that helps you maintain positive mental health and best prepares you for what life throws your way.
Fully compliant user-centric data policies in a heavily regulated European market.
Our technology.
Responsible by design.
Our Conversational AI Agent operates at the intersection of AI and mental health. It learns from real life, relatable mental health support examples to predict emotional states and offer relevant responses.
Data curation and data provenance: We ensure authenticity, through ongoing user feedback, through careful handling and organisation of data in a secure and controlled manner, ensuring it is used responsibly, transparently, preventing manipulation and errors.
We use large language models that capture the generative structure of dialogue, to enable accurate and precise predictions that explain how a conversation could evolve. Combining this with our compliant software engineering processes and scientific rigour, we gain the trust to foster meaningful support to our users.
Who we reach.
-
Schools and Universities
We are working with safeguarding teams to co-design and provide an early warning system, given the challenging environment they operate in.
Cami has been designed to fill gaps in mental health support and provide immediate, empathetic, tailored assistance for students who may be struggling in silence. By supporting students and easing the burden on schools to meet their pastoral care needs, Cami offers a vital resource for early intervention.
-
Social media companies
Globally, we are discovering the potentially damaging impact of social media, particularly among adolescents who experience unprecedented levels of daily digital engagement. Beyond cyberbullying, teens face exposure to legal but harmful content including extreme beauty standards, self-harm narratives, and algorithmically amplified negative behaviors that significantly impact their developing self-identity and mental health.
We are aiming to provide safer online environments that acknowledge the reality of teen social media consumption whilst mitigating its most damaging effects.

Organisations
Cambridge Mind Technologies offers solutions for employers to support employee mental health with an option to track overall health of an organisation through an anonymised dashboard. This data-driven approach provides leadership with valuable insights that inform strategic wellbeing decisions, enabling organisations to develop targeted mental health policies based on real-time analytics rather than assumptions.
By leveraging these anonymised metrics, companies are better positioned to allocate resources effectively and create a workplace culture that genuinely supports employee mental wellbeing.

Healthcare practitioners
We are aiming to offer remote care through Cami, so health providers can reduce staffing needs and operational load. Cami will provide crucial out-of-hours assistance when clinical staff aren't available, ensuring patients never face gaps in care. We want to deliver continuous support for those discharged from treatment or waiting for appointments to maintain therapeutic engagement during these vulnerable transition periods. This 24/7 accessibility means patients receive timely interventions and consistent care pathways.
