To help people aged 10-20 with ADHD improve their daily self-management, Gossik has developed an AI app that combines schedule management and expert coaching, which can automatically generate a schedule list and provide tools to help patients complete the list by learning from patients' daily behaviors and preferences, as well as providing online expert coaching for patients and their families to optimize their professional self-management plans in a timely manner.
Users only need to input all their goals, to-dos, thoughts and ideas into the software, and Gossik will learn the patient's daily behavior and preferences through AI, combine the to-do list with the patient's preferences, motivation level, priorities, etc., and automatically generate a schedule to help the patient manage their daily life. Gossik provides a daily check-in function to grasp the changes in patients' motivation and mood, and dynamically prioritize the to-do items based on this. At the same time, Gossik further helps patients focus on the task at hand through tools such as task reminders, expert guidance interactions, and timers, improving their sense of time and completion.
Along with the app, Gossik provides instant expert coaching services. Gossik has built a strong network of certified counselors with years of experience in both adolescent ADHD and clinical special education. Gossik provides an online communication platform for patients, their families and certified specialists to communicate with patients and their families on important day-to-day issues such as patient self-organization management, interpersonal communication, coping with school life, ADHD medication use, and parent-patient communication considerations, without the need for an appointment, to meet the consultation needs of patients and families at any time.
Gossik's software has landed on app stores in 2021. Currently, Gossik has partnerships with 34 clinics. In 2023, Gossik's software has helped more than 130 families with ADHD.
In 2023, Gossik received nearly CHF 1 million in financing, which will help Gossik further optimize the software features and develop a supporting ADHD coaching program to help more ADHD patients build the ability to cope with daily life independently.
