Conversational AI for brain health and wellbeing

Personal wellbeing, understood over time

VBuddies is a journal you can talk to. Putting memories into words, the happy, the ordinary and the hard, helps people make sense of their lives, stay connected and keep their mind active. We help organisations offer that to the people they serve.

How it works

Build around your memories

Good for the mind

Recalling your own life, putting it into words and sharing it with others is a natural way to keep your mind active and connected.

Built on your memories

Every conversation starts from the person’s own memories: their places, people, music and moments.

Conversational

People talk naturally with VBuddies, by voice or text. No tests, no scores, nothing to get wrong.

Over time

A few minutes, little and often. Over months and years it becomes a habit for the mind, and a life story that keeps growing
