Overview
Alkalma is an AI Mental Health Assistant built to bridge the gap between emotional understanding and digital accessibility. Through real-time dialogue, expressive avatars, and contextual awareness, it provides a space for users to reflect, seek comfort, and grow.
Powered by a secure healthcare-grade infrastructure, Alkalma delivers privacy, empathy, and intelligence in one consistent experience — supporting users globally through voice and text.
With a focus on batch processing, smart masking, and AI-driven enhancement, MotorCut reduces manual editing time while maintaining brand-level quality across every platform.
Challenge: Fitness apps lacked real engagement.
Before Alkalma, most mental health tools lacked human depth and contextual understanding. Users didn’t need another chatbot — they needed someone who could listen.
- Generic Barriers –Chatbots offered replies but not emotional recognition.
- Language Barriers –Mental health support wasn’t accessible beyond English.
- Privacy Concerns –Existing solutions didn’t meet healthcare-level security.
- Lack of Real Human Presence – Users missed the comfort of a genuine connection and tone.
The Solution – Alkalma’s Approach
Alkalma delivers empathetic, multilingual mental-health support through a context-aware assistant that remembers history, adapts tone, and protects privacy—so users feel heard, not handled.
- Emotion-aware conversations that adjust to user state
- Multilingual access across English, Arabic, Spanish, Portuguese
- Privacy-first design with healthcare-grade security
