AI powered behaviour change to deal with chronic disease
Alpha Health · Nov 2017 - Jun 2018 · Visual/Interaction Designer
At Alpha Health we wanted to tackle chronic disease, whose driver is everyday behaviour. We started by creating an app serving as a mirror to show users how they spent their time, and help them do more of what made them happy
We combined a personalised experience, conversational UI, AI and cognitive behaviour change to support users’ wellbeing and mental health.

Helping users make the most of their time
Minä helped users understand how much time they were dedicating to different areas of their life, and gave them personalised tips to find a better balance.
Conversational UI to support users
Minä’s AI powered chat offered tailored CBT content to support well being and mental health.
Exploring a transparent data sharing experience
Minä needed access to different sensors in the user’s device. We tried to be as transparent as possible, explaining what each sensor was needed for and how it would be reflected in the users’ experience.
