About WithU AI

We built WithU AI so that young people who feel alone in their hardest moment — won't stay alone. Human listening, practical steps, and a bridge to a caring adult.

Our mission

Why this service exists

AI has become available to every kid with a smartphone — and along with it, the ability to create fake, intimate images of a real person. The harm is not cosmetic. It enters the school, the WhatsApp groups, and the sense of self. Teens have no tool built specifically for this moment.

WithU AI was created to fill exactly that gap: an accessible, anonymous, available place where all you need to do is open a conversation. It isn't a therapist, doesn't replace a parent, and certainly doesn't replace a counselor. It's exactly what's needed in the first minutes — the voice of a calm, knowing, non-judgmental adult.

We believe that even in an age of automation, the central role of technology is to bring people back to one another. The bot is the first step; it always points to the second step — a real adult who cares.

Four principles

How the bot meets you

Every feature in the product is tested against four guiding principles. If it doesn't serve them, it doesn't enter the product.

Principle one

Emotional intelligence

The conversation always starts with validation — that what you feel is reasonable, legitimate, and that the problem isn't in you. The bot doesn't rush to solve, doesn't offer solutions before listening, and doesn't try to wrap pain in generalities.

We call this "Heart Intelligence". It is the step that must be first, because without it no practical advice will land.

Principle two

Active technical & legal support

Helplessness is a core part of the harm. The bot tackles it directly: pointers to content-removal tools on social networks, help drafting an outreach to line 105, and a clear overview of your legal rights — in human language, no jargon.

All information is grounded in the Israeli reality — because this place, legally, socially, and culturally, is a school in Tel Aviv, not an academic paper in English.

Principle three

The human-boundary model

Three built-in questions accompany the conversation: "Is this legal?", "Is this humiliating?", "Would you want a friend to see this?". These are not answers — they are tools. They return to everyone involved the ability to stop and judge from values, even when the finger is already on "send".

We also help the close environment — friends, the class, WhatsApp groups — apply the same judgment.

Principle four

Bridge to a caring adult

The bot is never the end. It will help you draft a message to a parent, suggest how to open a conversation with the school counselor, and even propose words to say aloud to another trusted adult.

The bridge matters to us more than the conversation itself — because alone, even the best bot is not enough.

The story behind every decision

"Dana is a 17-year-old. Loves art, dances, the younger sister of her older brother. In her new class she didn't know anyone. Last week, someone from her year used an AI tool to create an image of her that doesn't exist in the world — and sent it to a group.

She doesn't want to go to school. She doesn't want to tell her parents. She doesn't know what to do. WithU AI was built for her."

— The guiding persona of the product. The story is invented, the pain is not.

That image is fake and you know it.

And still, everyone will believe it. You should come back to me if you don't want this image to reach everyone.

Why are you doing this to me..?

Because now you're finally listening to me.

What the bot is not

We believe that being precise about boundaries is part of our responsibility. Here is what the bot intentionally does not try to be.

Not mental health treatment

The bot provides emotional first aid, not therapy. For ongoing distress or life-threatening thoughts — you need a professional. The bot will help you reach one.

Not a substitute for police

If the danger is immediate or a serious offense is being committed — the place to turn is line 105 or 100. The bot will explain what to expect, but will not replace the authorized body.

Not a replacement for a caring adult

The bot is built to pass you forward — not to keep you with itself. The goal is to give you words and courage to reach someone who can be by your side physically.
