The Path builds an AI-driven therapy-plus-coaching app that offers 11 customizable virtual therapists and allows users to set preferences like directness. Its AI model is post-trained from open-source models and has scored 95 on the Vera-MH mental health safety benchmark, compared with roughly 65 for consumer chatbots. The founders—Anson Whitmer and Tyler Sheaffer—previously worked at Calm, and Tony Robbins later joined as a co-founder after the lead investor became involved. The app is currently free while it acquires users, and the company plans to charge $40 per month in the future. The Path emphasizes building a model optimized for therapeutic structure and safety rather than engagement-driven responses.
