Problem
Neurodivergent and anxious children often struggle with emotional regulation, leading to behavioral outbursts and difficulties in social situations. Traditional therapeutic interventions can be expensive, time-consuming, and not always accessible for immediate, in-the-moment support.

Solution
Fawn provides an AI-powered emotional support companion in the form of a cuddly plush animal that offers 24/7 coaching via text message. Designed with input from child psychologists and executive function coaches, Fawn helps children process emotions, manage anxiety, and improve their emotional regulation skills. The service provides in-the-moment support and guidance, offering an accessible and engaging alternative to traditional therapy. Subscribers receive unlimited text message coaching and access to a character kids love.
