The Challenge

Namibia lacked a dedicated digital platform for mental health support. People faced stigma, limited access to therapists, and had no confidential way to seek help. BetterMinds needed a complete ecosystem with web platform, mobile apps, and real-time communication capabilities.

Our Solution

We built a comprehensive mental health platform with Next.js for the web, Convex for real-time backend, and Flutter for iOS and Android apps. The platform connects users with licensed therapists through secure video calls, chat, and scheduling. We implemented end-to-end encryption for privacy and a matching algorithm to pair users with the right therapists.

Connected 500+ users with licensed therapists in first 3 months
Built cross-platform mobile apps for iOS and Android
