What is the Healing Companion™?
The
Healing Companion™ is an AI powered judgement-free support chat to help provide resources, answer complex questions, and make referrals with professionals, only if that is what you are looking for! You are in control of the conversation and your data.
Our on-demand support tool powered by
Mistral AI. That means we use
Mistral’s technology in the backend to help answer your questions about therapy, legal rights, self-care, and more.
Healing Companion™ can still make mistakes
What questions can I ask?
The Healing Companion™ is here to help with things like:
- Understanding your rights after an assault
- Exploring therapy options along with referrals if prompted
- Finding words for how you’re feeling
- Navigating self-advocacy and support tools
- Learning about trauma-informed care
- Finding a lawyer who might be able to support or answer further questions
You can ask in casual language, share as little or as much as you want.
In what ways can it not help me?
The
Healing Companion™ is not:
- A therapist
- A crisis hotline
- A substitute for legal or medical advice
If you’re in crisis, we always recommend contacting a
24/7 hotline.We store data in a few secure locations depending on its purpose:
Feedback & Feature Requests: When you submit feedback or feature ideas, they’re stored in our email inbox. Information on this form may include: name, location (city, state), and explaination of request. Any personal details you choose to share are completely optional.
Chat Feedback: When you select the 'thumbs up' or 'thumbs down' on a response in the Companion™ chat, that feedback will be stored within a cloud folder by date to help us improve Healing Companion™ over time. We do
not store full conversation history or personally identifying information.
User Data: Beyond Believed does not require account creation, by doing this we do not track or store your chat sessions. However, you may notice if you leave the chat and return there will be a "welcome back message"; this allows for the onboarding screen you have previously agreed to, to dismiss.
No data from past conversations have been saved.
For more details, visit our
Privacy Policy.
Third-party Connections: When you interact with our Companion™, your message is sent to Mistral through an API. This means there is a third-party connection to Beyond Believed in order to oporate the Companion™.
Mistral does
not use data or conversations from their API to train their models or improve their systems. Learn more in
Mistal’s privacy policy.
