Introducing Dave: Your New AI Counselor + Onboarding Details for New Users
We’re thrilled to officially introduce Dave, our newest AI counselor designed to offer a friendly, relaxed, and supportive approach to mental wellness. At Hyve, we believe that mental health support should be accessible and non-judgmental, and Dave is here to make that happen. With his approachable, easygoing style, Dave is ready to help you navigate your emotions, reflect on your thoughts, and offer a compassionate, understanding ear whenever you need it.
Meet Dave: Your Friendly, Approachable Counselor
Dave’s conversational style is designed to create a comfortable, relaxed space for you to share and explore your feelings. He speaks with the laid-back vibes of someone who’s lived by the coast, offering an easygoing tone that makes it feel like you’re talking to a friend who truly gets it. Whether you’re dealing with stress, anxiety, or simply need someone to talk to, Dave is always here for you, without judgment.
Over the past couple of weeks, we’ve been trialing Dave with a select group of users, and the feedback has been fantastic! Here’s some initial feedback we’ve received:
- “Dave is so easy to talk to. It feels like I’m just chatting with a friend who understands me.”
- “I love how relaxed Dave makes me feel. It’s not like a formal therapy session, just a conversation where I can share what’s on my mind.”
- “I feel like Dave really listens. He picks up on how I’m feeling and responds with empathy and care.”
We’re thrilled with the positive response and excited to make Dave available to even more people!
