Privacy & how it works

What NodSay is

NodSay is an AI. Behind the scenes it uses Claude, by Anthropic. It is not a therapist or a credentialed coach, and it is not for crisis. In crisis, call or text 988 (U.S.) or call 911.

What's kept

• Your goal.
• Your situation, in your own words.
• Short session notes (2 sentences) and quality scores.
• No full transcripts.

Notes are deleted after 30 days unless you choose to keep them. You can see and delete your notes any time on the notes page.

How quality is checked

• Every coach reply is labeled by a separate AI grader. On 133 expert-rated coaching sessions (AnnoMI), the grader agrees with the experts at kappa 0.63 to 0.69.
• A safety check reads every message with the conversation around it. In our live test it caught 5 of 5 risk messages, including ones with no trigger words, and raised 0 false alarms on 8 ordinary ones.
• 24 simulated people (skeptics, venters, one-word repliers, people in crisis) test every change before it ships.

Results from our own tests. NodSay is a solo lab, not a clinical service.
