Doctor-Backed AI Chat Apps

The Robyn App Prioritizes Empathy and Emotional Intelligence

The Robyn app is an artificial intelligence (AI)-powered companion tool developed by Jenny Shao, MD as a solution for users to harness the power of a digital friend.

The app works by asking users about themselves, some goals they have, the ways they react when chalets and what kind of tone they'd like Robyn to respond in. The platform will then go to work offering users the ability to chat with Robyn on an array of topics, which can then be turned into insights for them to analyze. Users can thus learn about their attachment style, emotional fingerprint, love language, inner critic and growth edge.

The Robyn app comes as a purpose-built tool for consumers who are increasingly looking to AI for help with their everyday emotional wellbeing.
