Case Studies
A closer peak into the heauristic analysis we conducted on selected mental health chatbots to validate our guidelines
Selection Criteria
We selected 12 popular mental healthcare mobile apps from the PlayStore, focusing on those offering therapy chatbot services. Out of these, 5 were shortlisted for our study.
Apps such as Anima and Antar, while popular, were not included as they primarily focus on providing companionship and journaling features rather than therapeutic resources.
Similarly, apps like Woebot and Ginger by Headspace were not included due to limitations in accessing free services. The final list of shortlisted apps is as follows:
Wysa
Mental Health Support
Youper
AI For Mental Health Care
VOS.Health
Mental Health App
Audyn
AI Mental Health
Sintelly
CBT Therapy Chatbot
