What Mango Health does

Mango Health is building the market-leading AI Guide for OCD. OCD is often hidden in plain sight, with research showing it takes an average of 12 years to diagnose, and nearly 2% of the world population affected. We are on a mission to improve accessibility to the best resources available. With a focus on ERP like sessions, 24/7 support, and countless AI-guided lessons - we are looking to bring motivation and meaning back to the lives of millions at a fraction of the cost of traditional treatment.

AI Therapy for OCD

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We've built an AI guide focused on exposure and response prevention (ERP) therapy for OCD. It delivers sessions, lessons, and 24/7 support to help users practice and manage their symptoms outside traditional treatment at a much lower cost.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We don't have a fixed location currently and would base the company where YC suggests, likely in the Bay Area.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Since we are remote now, we want to be where YC's network and resources are to accelerate growth and build connections.

No. Y Combinator keeps submitted applications private.
