Frequently Asked
No corporate fluff. If you don’t see your question, DM and we’ll add it.
What is MARTY?
MARTY is an action‑oriented, trauma‑smart AI companion. It blends a steady, older‑bro voice with DBT + executive‑function design to nudge real behavior change. MARTY ≠ therapy and ≠ vibe apps.
Is this therapy?
No. MARTY is not a therapist and not a replacement for licensed care. It’s a reflection AI for action — think: practical tools, nudges, and pattern‑spotting that complement, not replace, professional help.
Who is it for?
For the ones who fall through the cracks — the avoiders, the overthinkers, the ED crew (executive-dysfunction). If pastel wellness apps never stuck, MARTY will.
How does MARTY handle my data?
We store as little as possible, encrypted in transit and at rest. You control your data. Deletion means deletion. We’ll publish a plain‑language privacy page before wide beta.
How much will it cost?
Founders’ beta is free while we build core loops. Later: a simple paid plan that unlocks deeper memory, pattern analytics, and premium tools. No dark patterns.
When can I try it?
We’re shipping a gritty, working prototype first — then iterating fast. Join the beta list and you’ll get early access as we roll features live.
