What Relay Health does

Nearly 7 billion hours are spent on porn every year. Relay provides a modern solution to one of the most widespread yet hidden epidemics of our time: pornography. Despite being one of the biggest drains on focus, relationships, and mental health, it remains one of the most silent and stigmatized problems in society. We are tackling this head-on. Relay helps people break free through private, anonymous groups that provide accountability and community. Members join a small, confidential team that replaces isolation with connection, offering shame-free accountability, evidence-based tools, and daily reflection. Our mission goes beyond quitting porn. Relay exists to help people heal the isolation and pain that drive destructive habits - so they can rebuild intimacy, reclaim focus, and live with greater connection, purpose, and wholeness.

The #1 App to Quit Porn: Rebuild Focus and Intimacy

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

We built Relay to help people quit porn through private, anonymous groups. Users join small, confidential teams that provide accountability and community, replacing isolation with connection. The app offers shame-free accountability, evidence-based tools, and daily reflection to help members rebuild focus and intimacy.

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

We live in Salt Lake City, UT, and plan to keep the company based here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We chose Salt Lake City because this is where the founding team is located and where we've built our early product and community. Staying here lets us keep focus and build locally.
