Why AI Therapy Works
Validated by peer-reviewed research across clinical efficacy, therapeutic alliance, health equity, and cost-effectiveness. The evidence speaks for itself.
Clinical Efficacy
Proven effectiveness in reducing mental health symptoms through randomized controlled trials and meta-analyses.
Depression reduction in clinical trial
Moderate-to-large effect on youth depression
Large effect size at 8 weeks
Multiple RCTs demonstrate significant symptom reduction
15 trials with 1,974 youth participants show consistent results
Large effect size (g=0.74) in subclinical populations enables early intervention
Therapeutic Alliance
AI forms meaningful therapeutic bonds comparable to human therapists, with rapid alliance formation.
Bond score vs human therapy
Time to strong working alliance
Therapists cannot distinguish AI from human
Users report trust comparable to working with mental health professionals
Professional therapists rate AI transcripts as equal or higher quality
Strong therapeutic bonds form within first week of use
Health Equity
Dramatically improves access for marginalized communities through anonymity and 24/7 availability.
Increase for non-binary individuals
Increase for ethnic minorities
More sessions attended
NHS study with 129,400 patients shows massive equity improvements
Anonymity removes stigma barriers for sensitive disclosure
Online therapy shows 3-6% non-adherence vs 14-23% face-to-face
Cost-Effectiveness
Better health outcomes while reducing costs, with dominant cost-utility ratios and high ROI.
Return on investment demonstrated
Cost-utility ratio (better + cheaper)
Fidelity to CBT principles

Delivers evidence-based therapy with high fidelity at scale
Addresses therapist shortage crisis globally
“The anonymity offered by chatbots led some patients to disclose more sensitive information than they would to a human therapist”[34]
