Levin
Therapy That Lives Where Life Happens
Bringing psychotherapy into daily life through personalized, adaptive digital interventions — secure, private, and always accessible when you need it most.

The Moment When Everything Falls Apart
When crisis hits, we're left feeling alone and overwhelmed, desperately needing the tools our therapists taught us — but they're nowhere to be found.
4PM panic attacks with no one to call
Your personalized breathing techniques are buried in forgotten notes
Social anxiety before important meetings
You remember your therapist's advice but can't recall the exact steps
Depression spirals that could be prevented
If only the right intervention could reach you at the right moment
93% of people struggle to use therapy techniques when they need them most. But what if therapy could live where life happens?
Our Solution: Digital Mental Health Twin + Just-in-Time Adaptive Interventions
Levin solves the therapy gap through two breakthrough innovations working in concert: a Digital Mental Health Twin that understands patient context and Just-in-Time Adaptive Interventions (JITAI) that deliver the right exercise at the exact right moment.
Context Analysis
Digital Twin analyzes calendar, biometric data (heart rate, sleep), and therapy content to understand patient state in real-time.
Intelligent Matching
AI matches current context to personal therapy exercises, selecting evidence-based interventions from personal therapy tailored to the individual.
Precise Delivery
JITAI delivers personalized exercises at the optimal moment, preventing crisis escalation and enabling immediate therapeutic intervention.

The Underlying Magic: Levin CARE Engine
Levin CARE Engine (Companion for Adaptive Resilience & Empowerment) synthesizes body, mind, and context into actionable, personalized interventions. This is holistic mental healthcare reimagined through intelligent technology.
Input Layer
Body: Heart rate variability, sleep patterns, activity levels
Mind: Mood tracking, journaling, therapy session content
Context: Calendar events, location, daily rhythms
Intelligence Layer
Privacy-first AI: Privacy-preserving models, Rule based decisions
Personal Knowledge Graph: Maps relationships between triggers, interventions, outcomes
Adaptive Policies: Learns which exercises work in which contexts
Action Layer
JITAI delivery: Right intervention, right moment
Therapist insights: Aggregated progress summaries
Continuous learning: Effectiveness feedback loop
Research foundation: A 2025 British Medical Journal Mental Health meta-analysis of 23 studies with 2,563 participants demonstrated JITAIs show significant effectiveness for depression, anxiety, and psychological well-being.
