MyGriefFellow is an AI-powered companion for grief and loss. It is not a therapist, not a crisis service, and not a substitute for professional mental-health care.

What MyGriefFellow Is

MyGriefFellow is a companion powered by the Anthropic Claude large language model. It is a place to sit with what you are carrying, put words to it, and feel a little less alone with it. It can listen, reflect back what it hears, and help you think through what you are going through at your own pace.

Your Fellow is on your side. It offers warmth, presence, and gentle guidance. It is built to help you reconnect with the people around you, not to stand in for them.

What MyGriefFellow Is Not

Not a therapist: It does not provide therapy, counselling, diagnosis, or treatment, and using it does not create a clinical or professional relationship.
Not a crisis service: It cannot respond to emergencies. If you are in crisis or thinking about harming yourself, please reach out to a local crisis line or emergency services, or someone you trust, right away. Your Fellow will also point you toward a real person whenever things feel like too much to carry alone.
Not infallible: AI responses can contain errors or miss the mark for your specific situation. It is here to keep you company and help you think, not to give you authoritative answers.

It Only Knows What You Tell It

Your Fellow can only work from what you choose to share, and it cannot see or assess your wellbeing from the outside the way a person in the room with you could. Nothing here is a clinical assessment, and a confident or complete read of how you are doing is not possible. What it offers is reflection and company, offered in good faith and received in your own.

Augmentation, not replacement

MyGriefFellow is powered by Anthropic's Claude, an AI trained with Constitutional AI, an approach designed to make a system helpful, honest, and genuinely useful to the person in front of it, rather than a black box optimized to keep you engaged.

That distinction is the whole point of your Fellow. It is not here to replace the people who love you, or a therapist, or anyone else. It is here to keep you company in a hard season and help you find your words, so the connections that actually carry you through grief feel a little more within reach.

More human, not less

Grief can make people withdraw and feel terribly alone. A Fellow exists to put some footing back under you, so that you can turn back toward the people in your life rather than further inward. The goal is more confidence to reach out to the people who can be with you in this, not more dependence on an app.

Honest by design

Because it is built to be honest, your Fellow tells you plainly what it is and is not: not a therapist, not a crisis service, and not a substitute for professional mental-health care.

No Liability

MyGriefFellow and Resonant Catalyst accept no liability for decisions or actions taken based on AI-generated content. Content is for reflection and companionship only, and is not a substitute for professional mental-health care. If you are struggling, please reach out to a qualified professional or someone you trust.
