Addressing Critical Issues:
CheersAI addresses three major obstacles in current mental health support for high schoolers:
1. Accessibility: Providing a free and straightforward platform that is easily accessible to all students. This online portal, while targeted for high schoolers, can be used by anyone as it offers universal features that can support individuals during their low moments.
2. Affordability: Offering a cost-free solution to ensure no student is left without support due to financial constraints.
3. Versatility: While primarily designed for students, CheersAI is versatile enough to deal with a wide range of needs. Whether a lonely parent seeking conversation, someone with sleep issues wanting to hear a Buddhist story, or any other individual needing support, CheersAI is always there to help.
Direct Connection to the Community:
As high school students themselves, the founders have direct access to their peers, allowing them to gather feedback and iterate on the platform quickly. This unique advantage enables them to understand and address the real needs of their target audience more effectively than larger companies.
