Geneva · in formation

Software that listens before it speaks.

inner regard, known as REGARD, is a company being formed in Geneva. It is building software for mental-health care and for everyday life: haiva and sona for clinicians and their patients, nara for daily wellbeing, and LWE for people changing careers. We are at the start, and this page says so.

About

Why we are building this

A week nobody sees

A weekly session is one hour out of 168. Clinicians are short of time, and most of what happens between sessions is never seen.

More than a CV

People in the middle of a career change are handed forms and templates. A long working life holds more than a CV shows.

The person stays in charge

Software can help if it keeps this order: the person speaks, the software prepares, the human decides.

Built in Geneva, for Europe and beyond. Certified clinical editions are the goal, and every claim waits for its evidence.

Products

What we built

Four products at different stages. None is on sale, and none has been clinically validated or certified.

haiva

For the clinician

Drafts of the progress note, the report and the invoice from a session the patient has agreed to record. The clinician reads, edits and signs every draft.

sona

For the patient, between sessions

A companion that the clinician switches on. It is designed to say that it is an AI and to keep crisis numbers for the country one tap away, offline and without sign-in.

nara

A daily companion for adults

A companion for everyday wellbeing, built for people who are not in care. It is a private prototype. A launch is planned, with no date announced.

LWE

LifeWork Echo · career coaching

A coach for people with long, complex working lives. It reads your CVs and conversations and helps you see what you already know about yourself. It is a private beta, by invitation.

Principles

Lines we hold

The clinician decides.

Nothing becomes part of a record without a practitioner's signature.

Nothing analytic reaches the patient.

No diagnosis, no score, no reading of their voice.

Consent for each purpose.

Patient data is never sold.

Help comes first.

Crisis help is designed to work without sign-in, network or any switch.

Labels travel with values.

Every measured value says what it is and whether it has been validated.

We name the limits.

What is not built, not validated and not certified is written on the page.

Voice and emotion in haiva and sonaDraft for review

Anything inferred from a voice, including emotion, stays off until it has been validated. After validation it is used only with the person's full consent and is shown only to their clinician.

With the InnerEcho Initiative

A company and a non-profit, at arm's length

The InnerEcho Initiative is an independent non-profit association in Geneva. It leads the open and research work: the research edition, the open voice modules and the studies.

REGARD

Builds, certifies and sells the Lite and Clinical editions, nara and LWE.

Runs research, education and studies. The research edition is free to universities and research programmes, when released.

Between the two
