Safety by Design
When The Mirror escalates
Our interview system quietly looks for language that signals despair, intent, or loss of control. When those cues appear, the product shifts into safety mode—highlighting the 988 Lifeline, encouraging you to reach a trusted contact, and, if you have a clinic connection, prompting you to send a secure update to your provider so no one is caught off guard.
