Parallel is an AI-powered, multi-device app that helps people seek effective mental health support and manage emotions through meaningful human connection. With 970 million people worldwide suffering from mental disorders, Parallel is designed to help people improve mental wellbeing by connecting them with individuals sharing similar experiences for support and fostering self-reflection. Users can post anonymous journals with moods, explore personalized post recommendations, summarize their inspirations with AI, and track the trends of their mental states over time.

Parallel leverages the built-in biometric measuring abilities on wearable devices to monitor users' stress levels. When users' stress level goes up, Parallel alerts them and checks in on their moods.

Parallel helps users understand and record their moods and thoughts with a guided journaling experience, where they can generate ideas with AI-generated prompts, add moods, and measure the intensity of each mood. Parallel also enables users to record audio journals on their wearable devices while they’re on the go.

Users can post journals anonymously and explore recommended journal posts tailored to their interests, which helps them connect with people with similar experiences and initiate supportive and inspiring conversations in a judgment-free space.

Additionally, users can easily jot down their inspirations from the Parallel community with AI to make their mindfulness progress more tangible and visible – In just one tap, users can get a concise, AI-generated summary of all posts they liked in a day.

Lastly, users can track the progress of their emotions and thoughts with AI-generated data visualization and insights to become more self-aware of their mental state patterns, and understand how they can improve their mental wellbeing.
