Key Features

Anonymous and Unlimited Support: Wysa for Employers offers anonymous mental health support for employees and their families, with no limits on the number of conversations or duration of support. According to the vendor, this feature allows employees to feel safe and comfortable discussing their mental health concerns without fear of stigma.

AI Chatbot Support: The AI chatbot provided by Wysa offers immediate support as the first step of care. The AI coach uses clinically validated techniques like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) to provide guidance and tools for managing stress, anxiety, and other mental health concerns. According to the vendor, it creates an anonymous and safe space for employees to work through their worries and stressors.

Human Coaching: For employees who require additional support, Wysa offers access to human coaches who provide one-on-one sessions and unlimited messaging support between sessions. These coaches can supplement the AI chatbot's support and provide personalized guidance based on the employee's specific needs, as claimed by the vendor.

Structured Programs and Self-Care: Wysa provides structured programs that guide employees through curated CBT programs. The AI chatbot checks in with employees every morning and evening, offering support and guidance. In addition to the structured programs, Wysa offers on-demand self-care resources, including evidence-based exercises for anxiety, sleep, handling difficult conversations, and improving productivity, according to the vendor.

Customized Escalation Pathways: Wysa's SOS feature guides employees toward local and national crisis care helplines. It also allows employees to create a personal safety plan and practice grounding exercises. The vendor states that Wysa's AI continuously screens for individuals in crisis and facilitates signposting to appropriate local helplines.

Integration with EAP Support: Wysa for Employers seamlessly integrates with in-house Employee Assistance Program (EAP) support. The AI takes on 80% of the support load, providing assistance to individuals with sub-clinical symptom levels and guiding them through proactive prevention routines. According to the vendor, those in need of professional support can access it sooner and as much as needed.
