The principles we’re building Evo around

We’re building Evo, a companion app for your patients, and the most useful thing we can share right now is what we’re building it around: consent first, small steps, and a clear line between support and therapy.

Consent first

Patients decide what reaches their therapist. Nothing is shared by default, and sharing can be changed at any time. A therapist should see only what the patient chose to show.

Small steps, not big data

Evo is built around a one-minute check-in and a few small steps agreed in session. We would rather give a therapist a short, honest summary before the next session than a dashboard of daily numbers.

Support, not therapy

Evo doesn’t diagnose, treat or replace sessions. It helps the days between sessions feel less alone. It isn’t a crisis service, and it says so.

What we’re still working out

  • How to word check-ins so they feel warm without being intrusive.
  • How much a therapist should see by default, and how a patient adjusts it.
  • How to point someone to the right help when a check-in suggests they need more than an app can give.

Where things stand

Evo is in development, and the screens on our site are previews that may change. If you’d like to help shape it, join the Evo early list or write to our team.
