About Theramentia

We’re building the company that makes "parity of esteem" real.

Mental ill health represents over a fifth of the disease burden in England but receives under a tenth of NHS spend, and the technology industry has spent a decade building for everyone except the most unwell.

Theramentia exists to change that: regulated, evidence-backed AI for the wards, crisis teams and hospitals where the stakes are highest.

Mission

To give mental health teams back their time and their foresight, turning the safety signals buried in everyday clinical records into action that prevents harm and keeps patients close to home.

Vision

A society where no one in a mental health crisis is failed by a system that could not see them coming.

“Safety is the product. If it does not make care safer, we do not ship it, and we serve the detained and most unwell even though they will never be a market, because that is what makes a mental health company worth trusting.”

The Theramentia founding principles

Our team

Clinicians and builders, side by side.

A founding team that understands both the ward and the model, kept honest by a clinical advisory board including lived-experience experts.

What we stand for

Principles we build by.

The clinician decides. We advise; humans act. Every clinical output has a named clinician who acts; the AI never acts autonomously.

Principle 01: Human in the loop

Let's make the dangerous end of care safer.

Whether you're an NHS trust, an independent provider, an investor or a clinician who wants to build with us, we'd like to talk.
