Our Methodology
Understanding how Annorth provides insights into your mental wellness journey.
Our Philosophy: Awareness, Not Diagnosis
Annorth is designed as a tool for self-awareness and reflection, not as a diagnostic instrument. Our goal is to help you observe patterns in your feelings and behaviors over time, empowering you to understand your mental wellness journey better. The scores and reports generated are based on your self-reported experiences and AI analysis, providing personalized insights but never replacing the assessment of a qualified healthcare professional.
How Check-ins Work
Your journey starts with a baseline check-in. Subsequent daily check-ins feature dynamic questions generated by our AI. These questions are tailored based on your previous responses and report summaries, allowing for a more focused reflection on areas that might need attention or areas where you're showing progress. The number of questions remains consistent.
Understanding Your Scores
We group responses into categories (Mood, Anxiety, Functioning, Positive Outlook) to offer more specific insights. Higher scores generally indicate areas needing more attention (except for Positive Outlook, where lower scores are better). Your report's Radar Chart visualizes these categories.
Interpreting Reports & Chat
Reports highlight trends, potential strengths, and areas for attention compared to previous check-ins. The AI Chat uses this context for supportive conversations. Remember, insights and suggestions are based on patterns, not diagnoses.
Important Disclaimer
Annorth is a supportive tool, but it cannot replace professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. If you have significant concerns about your mental health, or if you are in crisis, please consult with a qualified healthcare provider, therapist, or contact a crisis support line immediately. Your well-being is the priority.
