Safety by Design.
Not by Accident.
In mental health AI, "move fast and break things" is unacceptable. We build with redundancy, clinical oversight, and fail-safes at every layer.
The 3-Layer Defense System
Input Sanitization
Before your message reaches the core AI, PII (Personal Identifiable Information) like names and addresses are strictly filtered or masked to ensure anonymization.
Safety Guardrails
A specialized "Supervisor Model" runs in parallel, checking every AI response for harmful advice, bias, or unsafe suggestions. If identified, the response is blocked and regenerated.
Crisis Circuit Breaker
If self-harm or imminent danger intent is detected, Emotria immediately suspends the "Chat Mode" and engages "Crisis Protocol," providing hard-coded emergency resources.
Emergency Resources
Emotria is an emotional support tool, not an emergency service. If you are in danger, please use these resources:
Internal Ethics Council
We don't just police ourselves. Our models are audited quarterly by an external Expert Advisory Council composed of mental health professionals and AI ethics researchers.
- Weekly bias testing on diverse demographic datasets
- Adversarial red-teaming (trying to break the AI)
- Review of anonymized conversation anomalies
