Our story

RIVA exists to make emotional support accessible, safe, and stigma-free.

We believe everyone deserves a calm place to share, reflect, and feel heard. RIVA blends compassionate technology with human care to help people feel emotionally stronger every day.

Mission

To build the most trusted wellbeing platform where people can share safely, receive support quickly, and grow with confidence.

Vision

A world where emotional support is as easy to access as opening an app — and where empathy and safety are non-negotiable.

Commitment to safety

RIVA prioritizes a moderated community, no private DMs, clear reporting, and verified professionals to keep every interaction respectful and supportive.

AI as support, not a replacement for therapy

Our AI companion is designed to listen, guide reflection, and provide gentle encouragement. It is not a therapist and does not replace professional care. When deeper help is needed, RIVA helps you reach verified therapists and trained listeners.
