Alera is an AI-powered mental-health app built with clinicians that creates personalized weekly therapy plans and routines → It’s Lifetime FREE for the next 24 hours (normally $99.99) → Promo Codes available (read below)**.

Hey folks 👋

In 2018, I lost a close friend to depression. That moment changed everything. It pushed me to build something for people who struggle to open up.

I teamed up with psychologists, and since 2020 have been building Alera, a mental-health app designed to make therapy more accessible (read full story below). Over the last year, we’ve shaped Alera into a tool that creates a personal weekly therapy plan from a short chat → And then guides you with tiny audio & chat exercises each day + (new) guided routines for more productivity + (updated) Alera AI model quality for better help.

Already trusted by users in 50+ countries 🌍, and still evolving → we’d love your feedback.

💬 My Story

I’ve struggled with my own mental health too.

After losing my friend Niklas to depression out of nowhere (he's gone 7 years now), I started digging into why people suffer in silence and I found that over 300 million people worldwide live with depression, and around 800,000 take their own life every year. That number is devastating.

I thought: If I can learn something that helps me, why not build something that helps others too? 👀

So, I started reading self-improvement books, studying psychology, and eventually wrote my bachelor’s thesis on artificial intelligence and psychotherapy. Last year, I even published my first research paper at an international conference in Bangkok, focusing on depression apps and I’m now fully committed to this field 💪

Working with clinicians and psychotherapists, we’ve been improving Alera step by step — building something that’s not just “another app,” but scientifically grounded and genuinely helpful!

But it hasn’t been easy! 😰

When I first started in 2020, I had no coding experience. I spent 16-hour days learning, building, testing, sometimes close to burnout (one year ago). It’s kind of ironic building a mental-health app while you’re trying to manage your own mental health 😅

But I’ve made this my mission, to honor Niklas’ memory and help as many people as possible with Alera.

Not just by talking to friends or sharing what I’ve learned with people around me, but by creating something that can reach anyone, anywhere: across countries, languages, and cultures.

Getting emails from users around the world thanking us for helping them through hard times… that’s what keeps me going every day. It makes me tear up, no joke.

So yeah - if you try Alera, I’d love to hear what you think :)

Your feedback helps us grow and make Alera even better.

Thanks for reading :)
