Project description
How can Uppoo use AI to connect young people with the right local (mental) support at the right moment?
Context
Uppoo is building an AI-Powered mental health and Self-Reflection tool. Buid and extend a prototype, mapping recurring chat themes, design ethical AI-driven transitions to relevant organizations, and propose and build a conceptual and technical model.
Results
The Uppoo project resulted in a functional AI chatbot concept designed to support people experiencing anxiety, financial difficulties, and other mental health situations by providing information, guidance, and referrals to relevant local organisations. Alongside the chatbot, we developed a dashboard and comprehensive documentation to support future backend development. Through research, stakeholder collaboration, and legal and ethical analysis, we validated the proposed solution and ensured it aligned with requirements related to privacy, transparency, security, GDPR, and the EU AI Act.
