Read time: 4 minutes

Automated AI screening reduces assessment time by 30 minutes, helping providers deliver faster, more personalized mental health care.

Wysa, the global leader in AI-guided mental health support, today announced the U.S. launch of Wysa Gateway, an AI-powered chatbot designed to streamline how therapy providers and health plans facilitate patient access to care. The platform automates clinical screenings, offering a faster, more accurate, and personalized entry point into therapy.

Built to address the rising demand for mental health services, Wysa Gateway enables providers to customize patient pathways based on their unique clinical triage decisions. Patients engage through a stigma-free, conversational interface that is accessible 24/7 across desktop, mobile, and tablet devices.

Designed for Seamless Provider Integration

Providers can co-design screening question flows and referral logic, then integrate Wysa Gateway directly into their web environments using a single line of code. The solution connects with Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems, ensuring data continuity and compliance.

Assessment data is securely transferred into the EHR, delivering clinicians a summarized, configurable view of patient information. Full patient responses, clinical calculations, and decision logic are preserved, enabling efficient and informed decision-making.

Clinically Proven at Scale

Wysa Gateway has already demonstrated strong results in the UK’s National Health Service (NHS), where more than 300,000 patients have used the platform to access therapy. The system achieved a 95% diagnostic accuracy rate, with results subsequently confirmed by clinicians.

NHS deployments reported an average reduction of 30 minutes per patient assessment due to automated data collection, significantly accelerating access to care while reducing administrative burden on clinical teams.

Earlier Engagement and Built-In Safety

From the first point of contact, patients gain immediate access to Wysa’s clinically validated self-help app, allowing care to begin even before their first therapy appointment. This early engagement helps normalize the therapy process, set clear expectations, and provide accessible mental health education.

Wysa’s AI incorporates robust clinical safety protocols that detect crisis signals in real time. When needed, the system alerts care teams, surfaces vetted mental health resources, and encourages users to connect with local crisis support.

“Access to mental health care in the U.S. is often delayed by long waitlists and complex referral processes, leaving many patients without timely support,” said Jo Aggarwal, CEO of Wysa. “Wysa Gateway leverages our AI to simplify and speed up patient screening and referral, helping providers deliver care faster while reducing administrative strain.”

Supporting Clinicians Beyond Intake

Clinical teams can extend AI-supported care using Wysa Copilot, a provider platform that gives therapists insight into patient symptom trends, engagement levels, and self-care progress. This enables personalized care with continuous support between sessions, improving engagement and outcomes.

Wysa Gateway is now available to health systems, therapy providers, and insurers across the U.S. seeking to streamline mental health access, reduce operational load, and deliver measurable return on investment.
