Our Journey
In late 2020, heyy, was conceived as a mental health care app featuring a human-in-loop system for highly personalized care. Over the past two years, collaborating with organizations of all sizes, we've come to realize that well-being issues often stem from internal and structural aspects of organizations themselves. As a standalone mental health care provider, our ability to address the root causes of organizational well-being is limited.
heyy, is presently under pause. Team is spread out and garnering more experience, with a hope of getting back together one day.
Ankit has begun his journey as a Coach with the hope of assimilating the collective learnings and bring forward a remarkable offering in the future.
Never say never!

User Reviews
Testimonials
Giving employees insight on having an unbiased and external avenue to talk about how they feel or process what they are going through I think is the most impactful way we introduce the app to our employees.
Thank you for enabling us so well.

Head of People
Covid-19 and a remote work environment has reduced the human connection that we once took for granted placing additional stressors on teams. While team wellbeing is still our foremost duty as founders, heyy, is our trusted wellbeing partner that makes sure no team member falls through the cracks.
