Our Commitment to Safe Support

At Crash Out Diary, we're a small team building something big - and we take safety seriously. We're in beta, which means we're growing fast and listening closely to our community. Your trust matters to us, and we're committed to creating a space where young women can get emotional support without compromising their wellbeing.

How Our AI Companions Are Designed

Our AI companions aren't just general chatbots let loose in the wild. They're specifically fine-tuned for coaching and wellness support, built on a foundation of emotional intelligence and crisis awareness.

Every companion is trained to:

• Read emotional states - They assess whether you need compassion, processing space, or actionable support before responding
• Validate first, coach second - They never jump straight into advice without acknowledging what you're feeling
• Recognize crisis signals - They're designed to detect when someone is overwhelmed, in crisis, or needs more support than an app can provide
• Redirect to professional help - When situations require trained crisis counselors or therapists, companions guide users to appropriate resources like Crisis Text Line (741741) or 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline
• Adapt their approach - They match their energy to what you need in the moment - sometimes that's a gentle best friend, sometimes that's honest accountability

What makes them different: Unlike general AI chatbots, our companions are built with specific guardrails for emotional support. They're not here to enable destructive patterns or validate harmful thinking - they're here to help you regulate your nervous system and make better choices in heated moments.

Our Wellness Advisory Board

Crash Out Diary is guided by a board of wellness advisors consisting of two licensed therapists and two wellness practitioners. They work closely with our team to ensure the app remains safe and supportive, especially for users under 18. This board helps us:

• Review safety protocols and crisis response systems
• Ensure AI companions provide appropriate, therapeutic support
• Identify potential risks and implement protective measures
• Guide our product roadmap with clinical expertise
