If you are using our UK specific applications, namely, Everyday Mental Health by Wysa mobile app or Digital Referral Assistant application then you need to read this notice. When using our website, web pages, app and services, you agree to follow these terms and any other related terms of use.

We provide multiple services as listed below. You will not have access to services not made available in your region. As an Institutional user, you will get access to only those services authorised by your Institution.

  • Text or audio-video chats with a human mental health and well-being expert (“Wysa Coach”).
  • Text or audio-video chats with a healthcare professional (“Wysa Medical Assistant”).
  • Use our Digital Front Door and get access to different Institutional services (“e-triage”).
  • Use the AI Coach powered by Generative AI (“Wysa+”).

We will work with your public institution, healthcare institution, educational institution or other organisation to offer our services. These are called Institutional services. Before you can use these Institutional services, you will need to agree to our notices and to the notices of your Institution.

These terms of service and other related terms of use provided are a legal agreement between you and Touchkin eServices Private Limited, our parent holding company registered in India. If you are thinking about hurting yourself or others, or have a serious physical or mental health emergency, stop using the app right away.

About Our App and Services:

With the apps, you can chat with an artificial intelligence (AI) coach to get access to tools and techniques to help manage your emotions and support your mental and behavioural health and well-being.

Intended Use of our Apps

Using the AI Coach

  • The AI Coach is not a human, but an artificial intelligence system. So it is restricted in the means of response.
  • The app provides evidence-based tools to help you feel better and manage your mood.
  • You decide if you want to use the AI Coach based on your needs.
  • The AI Coach is here to help you to improve mental resilience, manage your feelings, learn to adapt, and handle your stress better.
  • The AI Coach cannot give advice on matters that it does not understand.

Using the Wysa Coach

  • The Wysa Coach is a mental health and well-being professional.
  • The Wysa coaches use proven methods and tools to train you to be mentally resilient.
  • You may need to give consent and permissions to use the service.
  • You might also need to give us details of a person to contact in an emergency for your safety.
  • If you tell us your age is between 13 and 18 years, you need permission from your parents or guardian. You need to tell your parents or guardian to email us at [email protected].
  • Where decided by us or your Institution, the Wysa Coach conducts online group well-being sessions.

Using the Digital Front Door (e-triage) Service
The service is given to you by your Institution. It helps your Institution guide you and your family to the right care and support. The service asks a series of questions, and based on your answers, it shows you the right resources your Institution offers for your mental health and well-being.

Using the Wysa+ Service
Wysa+ provides an improved experience of the AI Coach service. It allows us to provide you with high-quality, and safe responses. Wysa+ uses third-party Generative AI and our own AI to chat with you. This helps the AI Coach talk about varied conversations and provide responses that are more suited to you. Where provided, Wysa+ allows you to chat in native English and specific Indian languages. Your conversation data is processed and part of the input to the Gen AI to provide this service. The input to and the output from the Gen AI passes through our safety guardrails and quality checks before we use it. Our clinical staff checks the appropriateness of the Gen AI response at frequent intervals to make sure they are safe, and work well.

Generated Insights within Weekly Report:
Where you use weekly reports, we use third-party Gen AI to create generated insights. These reports give you personalized and useful information based on how you use the app. This can help you learn more about yourself and improve your mental health and well-being.

Using the Wysa Medical Assistant Service
Healthcare services are offered through our Medical Assistants. Wysa Medical Assistants are allied health professionals who have been trained to offer healthcare services in a remote setting. They provide the service on behalf and under the supervision of care coordinators. Medical Assistants will help you adapt to living healthier lives by discovering your personal strengths and motivations, along with enabling adherence to your medication and appointments. Medical assistants will have monthly touchpoints with you to assist them in actively working towards better health and well-being. The Medical Assistant will not be prescribing medicines or dosages.
