Born from lived experience
CouchLoop didn't start in a boardroom. It started with two years of unemployment quietly chipping away at confidence - affecting job interviews, friendships, family. Therapy helped. But the silence between sessions is where progress often stalls and insights fade.
Building the engine
Greg built an AI engine that listens before it speaks. It reads emotional tone, asks questions instead of jumping to answers, and reflects your feelings back with empathy and insight. It doesn't just respond - it helps you explore your own mind with curiosity and care.
The result? A nonjudgmental, well-informed reflection engine. Not a therapist - but something to help you think clearly and answer the questions you never thought to ask when things feel murky.
“It's beautiful to witness how delicately it handles even the most vulnerable conversations. Not rushing to fix or find a solution, but also not warm and cuddly. It's not going to tell you everything is going to be ok...and that's ok. Because tough love is the true expression of compassion.”
- Greg, Co-Founder
The journey so far
Every milestone brought us closer to a world where care never stops.
The Spark
Therapy helped – but between sessions, Greg started prompting ChatGPT to sort through thoughts and log small wins. That tiny system became the first version of the CouchLoop engine.
First Steps
CouchLoop launched as a web-based MVP, proving that AI could provide meaningful therapeutic support between sessions. The early prototype validated a simple but powerful idea: care shouldn’t stop when the session ends.
The Partnership
Greg reconnected with Sam – a clinician who saw the full picture. Together they designed the closed-loop system: AI for clients, a dashboard for clinicians, and a bridge between both.
Going Mobile
CouchLoop Chat launched on iOS, making 24/7 therapeutic support accessible from anywhere. The app brought AI-guided reflection, mood tracking, and homework tools into people’s pockets.
Closing the Loop
The Clinician Dashboard enters launch – completing the closed-loop system that connects clients and therapists. Clinicians gain real-time visibility into client progress, homework engagement, and session continuity.
Our Promise
This is what we hold ourselves to.
Keeps the human relationship at the center, always.
Holds ethics, transparency, and care above profit.
Honors both clinician and client as partners in wisdom.
Makes access to support borderless - across language, cost, and geography.
Strengthens the entire loop of healing - from individual to community.
Technology belongs in service of the people it was built for - not the other way around. That's why CouchLoop exists.
The loop starts with you.
Whether you're a therapist looking for better tools or someone navigating the space between sessions - we're building this for you. Join the waitlist.
