Best known for its free peer-support check-in app Be A Looper, which operated in 87 countries, the company builds proprietary EmotionAI technologies at the intersection of artificial intelligence, the Internet of Bodies (IoB), and human emotion. Its focus is on suicide prevention, emotional communication, and human-to-computer relationships.
Somethings is a New York-based digital mental health company that connects teens and young adults (ages 13-26) with trained, certified near-peer mentors in their 20s for real-time text and video support. Built around lived experience rather than clinical therapy alone, every mentor is background-checked, certified as a peer specialist, and supervised by licensed clinicians. The company sells primarily to states, Medicaid managed-care plans, schools, and community organizations as an early-intervention layer in the youth mental health system.
