ACHC's AI tracker monitors mental wellbeing over time and alerts the people who care about you, so no one slips through the cracks alone.
Most people do not reach out when they are struggling. They go quiet. They withdraw. By the time anyone notices, it is often too late. ACHC is built to catch those signals early and put them in the hands of people who can actually help.

An early warning system built around the people who already love you.
The user answers a few simple questions each day or week: how are you sleeping, how social have you been, how is your energy, how are you feeling. No clinical language. No judgment. Just an honest check-in.
Everyone has good weeks and bad weeks. The system learns your specific baseline. It is not looking for one bad day, it tracks sustained patterns: weeks of poor sleep, increasing isolation, losing interest in things you used to enjoy, changes in how you talk about yourself.
The user gets a soft in-app nudge: "Hey, we have noticed you have seemed off lately. Want to talk to someone?" They can reach out to a peer supporter or the 988 Lifeline right from the app.
The designated support person, whoever the user chose at signup — parent, friend, roommate, partner — receives a non-alarming notification. Something like: "Hey, [name] has seemed off lately. It might be worth reaching out." No clinical language. No panic. Just a heads up to someone already in their life.
We do not just send an alert and leave them hanging. They get simple, practical guidance: what to say, how to bring it up naturally, what NOT to say. Because most people want to help but do not know how.
The support person reaches out. The conversation happens. The person who was struggling finds out someone noticed, and that alone can change the course of a life.
Most people who survive a crisis say they wish someone had noticed. We built the tool that helps people notice.
You choose who gets alerted. You can see exactly what is shared. You can pause or delete your account at any time.
Your mental health information is yours. It is never sold, never shared with advertisers, never used for anything except keeping you safe.
Support people receive warm, non-clinical nudges. We never use clinical crisis language in alerts. We just tell someone you care about to check in on you.
When someone needs support right now, our 24/7 chatbot provides immediate, judgment-free conversation and connects them to the 988 Lifeline or a trained peer supporter.
Worried about a friend but do not know what to say? Our AI-assisted letter tool helps you write a short, warm message that simply says: I see you. I am here.
Trained community members available online and locally to show up for someone who is struggling. Every supporter is trained in QPR: Question, Persuade, Refer.
A calm, fast handoff from a risky message to the people who can check in, with crisis resources always one tap away.
Most people who want to check in on a struggling friend never do, because they freeze on the words. Our AI-assisted letter tool helps you write a short, warm message that lets someone know you noticed them, and that you are still here.
You do not need the perfect words. We will help you find them.
We are just getting started. Every number is a person.

ACHC was founded by a group of young people who believe that technology, community, and human connection can save lives. We are engineers, organizers, and advocates who built this because we know the current system is not enough.
This organization was founded in memory of Alexander Chung, whose loss inspired us to build something that could help others before they reach their darkest moment.
