How it works
Four quiet layers,
one gentle signal
Keywords miss meaning and models miss patterns — so each layer covers the one before it.
L1
Keyword
~15 ms · local regex · no AI
Tens of thousands of phrases matched locally. No AI, no network.
“i feel so alone”
L2
Semantic
reads intent, decides severity
Reads meaning — a joke stays a joke. “this test is killing me” and a real goodbye are never confused.
joke serious
L3
Behavioral
rhythm vs. your baseline · no text
Late nights, tab switching, typing pace, session length. Measured against your own baseline. Reads no text.
L4
Trend gate
one bad day ≠ a pattern
1 day ≠ crisis. Only a sustained pattern surfaces. Crisis always bypasses.
You — in control
By the numbers
Numbers that just
make sense
Privacy-first by design. Measured on the device, never in the cloud.

who go quiet
Real Moments. Real Signals. Support That Arrives Before the Ask.
The student at 1 a.m.
Studying, scrolling, not sleeping
SilentHelp reads the rhythm — late nights, restless tabs, typing pace — against your own baseline. It just checks in.
The one who jokes
"this test is killing me 😂"
Nothing happens. It reads meaning, not keywords — so it never cries wolf, and students keep trusting it.
The friend who got a text
Help a Friend
Paste what they sent. SilentHelp coaches you on what to say, and when it's time to bring in a trusted adult.
The parent who wonders

The one in crisis
988 · Suicide & Crisis Lifeline

Questions, answered quietly
Is SilentHelp a therapist?
No. It’s a warm companion that catches jokes vs. real distress — and never pretends to be a therapist. SilentHelp is a wellbeing companion, not a medical device, and it does not diagnose or provide treatment.
What does it store about what I write?
0 bytes of raw text stored or transmitted. Only a category and a level are recorded — never what you wrote. Every message is checked locally, before anything leaves your Mac.
What if I’m just joking?
“this test is killing me 😂” — nothing happens. It reads meaning, not keywords — so it never cries wolf, and students keep trusting it.
Will my parents or school see my messages?
Nothing is reported behind your teen's back. When a student chooses to reach out, the message arrives already drafted — category and level, never a transcript. The message to a counselor is drafted — you decide if it goes.
What happens when it’s serious?
When it's truly serious, a calm check-in surfaces real human help — call or text 988, or text HOME to 741741. Crisis always bypasses the trend gate, and explicit crisis phrases can never be suppressed by joke context.
