Stella is your emotional wellness AI: a friend to figure it out with. Tell Stella what happened. Even the part you're still figuring out. Speak or text about what stayed with you. Explore another perspective, find words for a conversation or choose a small step when you're ready. Talk it through by voice in the iOS app, or by text in iMessage with Text Stella. Free to download; a subscription is required to keep using it. Stella is not therapy and is not a substitute for professional care.

Partial The conversational chat UI is easy to vibe-code on top of an LLM, but safe handling of emotional distress and crisis situations needs clinical expertise that vibe coding cannot provide.
What it would actually take: The core is a chat front end, an LLM API with a carefully designed system prompt, and conversation memory. The hard part is safety: detecting crisis signals, escalating to human resources, and validating outputs with licensed clinicians. Regulatory questions about positioning as a wellness versus medical product also need legal and clinical input.
