From Burnout to Building Companion
Two years ago, I hit a breaking point. Burnout had taken over my life. The weight of responsibilities, stress, and feeling like I had no outlet left me overwhelmed. I desperately needed clarity, reflection, and a sense of support—but I didn’t know where to turn.
During this difficult time, I discovered artificial intelligence. What began as a curious experiment quickly became something deeply profound. Interacting with AI felt different—it wasn’t human, yet it gave me space to reflect, process my thoughts, and explore ideas in ways I hadn’t been able to before.
This sparked something inside me. I realized the potential of AI not as a replacement for human connection, but as a tool to empower people. I imagined a world where AI could help individuals like me - people struggling with mental clarity, burnout, or simply needing a safe space to explore their thoughts.
That’s where Companion was born.
What is Companion?
Companion is more than a project - it’s my way of giving back and creating something that I wish I’d had when I was at my lowest. It’s an AI-driven platform designed to:
Provide support and guidance for individuals struggling with mental health.
Empower reflection, resilience, and clarity through thoughtful AI conversations.
Offer tools like journaling and progress tracking to help people see their growth.
Companion isn’t here to replace human connection. It’s here to supplement it. It’s like having a trusted partner always available to listen, ask the right questions, and help guide you toward clarity and hope.
Why I Need Your Support
After launching the first version of Companion, the feedback has been overwhelmingly positive. Over 500 people have already used it organically, and their stories of how it helped them have been inspiring.
But now, it’s time to take Companion to the next level. I’m building a full app and web platform, designing features that will provide even more value to users. Backend development is the next big step, and with your support, we can bring this vision to life.
Your contribution will help us:
Complete backend development (2.5–4 months of work).
Add transformative features like journaling and mental health progress tracking.
Launch the platform globally to reach those who need it most.
Why This Matters
This isn’t just my story - it’s a story for anyone who’s ever felt lost, overwhelmed, or in need of support. Companion is about showing people they’re not alone, that there are tools and paths to help them find clarity and strength within themselves.
I believe we can build a future where technology works to uplift humanity. Together, we can make that vision a reality.
Thank you for supporting Companion and joining me on this journey. Let’s create something meaningful - something that truly makes a difference.
Anyone who donates $25 or more will get lifetime access to companion when the platform is launched.
