Our mission is to make mental health accessible to everyone. We believe the best way to do this is to reach people where they are — online.

We've been working in Trust and Safety for over 6 years. Koko has worked with many of the world's largest platforms.
Koko started as a clinical trial at MIT. We have since published seven peer reviewed papers on our platform, including two randomized-controlled trials.
Our StoryKoko has reached over two million people, mostly adolescents.
Of users who engage with our interventions, 71% feel more hopeful, 42% feel better about their bodies, and 67% feel less self-hatred.
Koko offers multiple interventions, but our peer support service is the tender, beating-heart of our platform. It's based on the simple idea of helping others to help yourself. This creates a ripple effect. If one person learns to help two other people, who then go on to help two more, the impact is exponential.
All of our services are free. We take user privacy very seriously and we never sell data. We rely on donations to make our impact.
