What is Wysa?

Wysa is an AI-powered mental health platform designed to support employee well-being in the workplace. It offers employees access to mental health resources, stress management tools, and support through conversational AI, whilst providing employers with insights into workplace mental health trends. The platform was notably featured at the World Economic Forum through Wysa's 2023 Employee Mental Health Report, which examined stress and anxiety levels across workforces globally. Organisations use Wysa to create supportive work cultures, implement mental health training programmes, and monitor employee well-being at scale. The tool is particularly useful for HR teams and large employers seeking to address mental health systematically rather than as an afterthought.
