For clinicians & coaches

Stop guessing how their week went. Understand it.

Your clients are already using AI between sessions. The only question is whether it works with you or around you.

Let it work with you by joining the Bonds pilot. Built with clinical psychologist Dr. Lior Kritzman, PhD, Bonds gives your clients a few minutes of personal practice every day and remembers every step.

77%

of psychologists have already spoken with a patient who used AI for support.

Sample summary · forwarded by your client
Emily's relationship summary
What you shared, in your own words

In the Describing Your Situation chapter, you wrote: "i feel alone in my relationship. he's always on his phone, he doesn't even greet me anymore, he's either working or scrolling and it's lonely."

In the Noticing Reactions chapter, you wrote: "i just go quiet. i don't want to start a fight so i say nothing, and then i'm annoyed about it for days."

→ What might be worth exploring

• A pattern of going quiet instead of saying what's wrong

• Feeling unseen when Daniel is on his phone

• Frustration that builds up because it isn't said out loud

See the full summary, including what she committed to
Your partner, as you described them
• You described Daniel as often working or on his phone.
• You wrote that he doesn't greet you anymore.
What you did in the app
✓ Completed the Describing Your Situation practice
✓ Completed the Noticing Reactions practice
✓ Completed the Sharing Inner Experience practice
✓ Completed the Asking What They Need practice
You keep coming back to this work, and that steady practice is what helps.
What you committed to and how it went
You took on 2 of the 3 actions suggested in the last 30 days, and reported trying 1 of them so far.
• Tell Daniel one thing that bothered you today, in 1 calm sentence, instead of saying nothing.
You took this on. You tried it, and said it felt uncomfortable.
• Greet Daniel when he gets home, before either of you picks up a phone.
You took this on. No update yet.
• Ask Daniel for 10 phone-free minutes after dinner.
You didn't take this on.
What we noticed
The app's reading of the above, not a fact and not a professional opinion.
• You feel unseen when Daniel is on his phone. (based on: Your answer in Describing Your Situation)
• When something bothers you, you go quiet to avoid a fight. (based on: Your answer in Noticing Reactions)
• The quiet does not settle it. You stay annoyed for days afterward. (based on: Your answer in Noticing Reactions)
• You did say 1 thing out loud this month, even though it felt uncomfortable. (based on: Your check-in on telling Daniel what bothered you)
You already know what you want to say, and you have started saying it. The next step is doing it again, even while it still feels hard.
Ideas you may want to try
Suggestions to consider, not instructions.
Notice: Notice when you start to go quiet. What happens in your body right before you shut down?
Reframe: Instead of thinking "if I speak up, we'll fight," try "saying something small now might stop days of feeling upset."
Focus: The greeting you took on is still open. Try it once this week, then check in on how it went.
Sharing this with you is always Emily's call. The summary is generated from her own activity in the app, and it's there to support your work, never to stand in for it.
Emailed to your client. They forward it if they want to. Bonds never contacts you directly.
The gap

They walk out of your room. Then 2 weeks of silence.

The work that decides whether a relationship changes happens where you cannot see it. And your clients are already filling that silence with tools that know nothing about them.

You are working blind

2 weeks rebuilt from memory in 10 minutes, and memory keeps whatever happened last.

The work you send home disappears

Whether they tried it, and how it went, you only learn by asking.

The hardest things stay unsaid

People type what they can't say out loud. That material matters most, and it arrives late or never.

How it works

3 steps. None of them are yours.

No portal, no dashboard, no software to adopt. It all happens on your client's side.

They practice, and they keep going

Built for the client who never does the exercise you gave them. 5 minutes a day, built like a game, so it actually happens. Your client uses it on their own. Their partner doesn't need to join.

It remembers all of it

Not a fresh conversation every time. Bonds holds their history, their patterns, and everything they've already tried, and returns it to them as a letter in their own words.

They hand it to you

Always their call. When they share it, your next session picks up exactly where the last one ended. No catch-up, nothing lost.

Try it yourself

This is your client at 11pm, mid-argument.

Pick something a client might say. Bonds catches the tone, names what's underneath it, and rehearses the repair with them right then, in the moment it's happening, instead of 2 weeks later in your office.

  • ✓Zero admin. No login, no dashboard, no extra notes. Nothing added to your week.
  • ✓Their call, every time. We never contact you, and nothing reaches your file unless they send it. Skipping a summary tells you something too.
  • ✓Private by default. Their conversations stay theirs, encrypted and confidential. We never sell personal data.

The backing

A clinical psychologist runs the science here.

Bonds isn't a wellness app with a psychologist on an advisory page. Dr. Lior Kritzman, PhD is a licensed clinical psychologist and our Chief Scientific Officer, based at the Sagol Center for Brain and Mind at Reichman University. He oversees the science behind every tool we build. Your clients won't practice anything you'd have to undo.

Pattern awareness

Patterns before they repeat

Clients learn to catch escalation early and respond differently.

CBT, ACT & Attachment

Familiar clinical grounding

Reframing, values-based action, and attachment-aware language.

Habit Science

5 minutes, repeated

Short daily practice, which is why the home exercises actually come back.

Lior Kritzman, Ph.D, clinical psychologist and Chief Scientific Officer at Bonds

"You don't need to know what's wrong to start understanding your relationship. Sometimes, you just need something that makes you think, 'That's us,' and helps you put words to what you've been feeling."

Lior Kritzman, Ph.DLicensed Clinical Psychologist and Chief Scientific Officer, Bonds
Gila Bronner, MPH, MSW, CST, certified sex therapist and Clinical Advisor for Intimacy at Bonds

"Intimacy is so hard to talk about because it touches our most sensitive and vulnerable places. It feels safer to stay silent, hoping that our partner will understand what we want, what we miss. But real closeness begins when we dare to put our feelings into words."

What's next

What we're building next, with you.

Today, Bonds works on your client's side, and they choose what to share with you. Next, we want what happens in your sessions to shape what Bonds does with them.

Your sessions shape their week

At the end of a session, your client adds the 1 to 3 things you agreed on. Bonds builds their daily practice around them.

You see how it went

Their next summary shows you how it went, in their own words. Less time piecing together the last 2 weeks, more time going deeper.

Their own practitioner, inside Bonds

Further out, we want clients to be able to bring their own practitioner into Bonds. Our pilot partners are deciding how that works.

No session recordings. Nothing from your notes. Only what your client chooses to add.

The pilot
Now accepting applications

What you get, and what we ask.

We're starting with a small first group this round. Nothing to sign.

Free until November 10. Then $49 a month for your 10 client seats, and you keep that price for as long as you stay.

What you get

  • 10 client seats. Your clients use the Bonds app between sessions, and each client decides whether to share a summary with you.
  • Summaries that show what your client committed to in the app and whether they actually tried it.
  • A ready-to-send launch kit: an email and social posts you can adapt to invite clients or your community, plus images. We send it in your first week.
  • Something new to offer your clients and your community: early access to Bonds as part of working with you.
  • Your price locked for as long as you stay, under $5 per client a month
  • A say in what we build next, starting with session follow-up
  • A direct line to Lior Illouz, the founder, not a support queue. Dr. Lior Kritzman advises the pilot.

What we ask

  • Give seats to 1–3 clients in your first 2 weeks.
  • Help us shape how session follow-up works
  • Be honest with us about what works and what doesn't
  • No contract, no exclusivity.

5 design partner spots this round. 3 are already taken.

Join the pilot

Tell us about your practice.

2 minutes. A person reads every one and replies. We're small enough that this is true.

Nothing to pay before November 10. We'll email you 2 weeks before your first payment, and you can cancel any time with no fee. We will never contact your clients. We only use your details to run the pilot. See our Privacy Policy.

Questions

What clinicians and coaches ask us first.

What about privacy and my professional obligations?

The same as recommending a book or a journaling app, and less than you might expect. You share nothing with us: no client information, no records, no data ever flows from your practice to Bonds. Your client signs up directly, under their own consent, and everything they do in the app stays theirs. If they generate a summary, they decide whether to show it to you. Nothing is sent to you automatically. Bonds is a self-guided tool for everyday relationship skills. It isn't therapy and doesn't position itself as a substitute for your work. As with any resource, whether it suits a particular client stays your clinical call.

Do I need a release of information?

No. Your client is handing you their own document, so there's nothing for you to collect. Client conversations are encrypted and confidential, and we never sell personal data.

Is Bonds trying to replace therapy?

No. Bonds is built for the days between sessions: the small repeated practice that makes the work in the room stick. It doesn't assess, diagnose, or treat, and many of our users are already in therapy.

What's actually in the summary?

7 parts, written as a letter to your client rather than a chart: what they shared in their own words, what might be worth exploring, their partner as they described them, what they've done in the app, what they committed to and whether they tried it, patterns we noticed (each one says what it's based on), and a few ideas to try next. It also says plainly that it was generated automatically and that sharing it is optional. See the sample at the top of this page.

Does it interpret my client for me?

It offers observations and suggestions, so yes, in a limited sense. We'd rather you know that up front than discover it. It names patterns it sees and proposes small experiments, and it says on its face that it's automated and not a substitute for your judgment. You are the clinician. If it says something you disagree with, that disagreement is probably the most useful thing in the document.

Isn't this just another AI chatbot?

No, and the difference is the point. A general chatbot starts fresh, has no clinical grounding, and will happily agree with whatever your client tells it. Bonds is built on CBT, ACT and attachment theory, with its science led by a licensed clinical psychologist, and it remembers your client's history and patterns across months. It's structured practice, not open-ended conversation.

Who's a good fit for this?

Clients working on communication and relationship patterns, whether you see them individually or as a couple. Especially the ones who don't do between-session work, and individual clients whose partner isn't ready for couples therapy. Bonds is designed so one person can start alone, including in relationships that are just starting.

What if I try it and don't like it?

Tell us why. At this stage that's the most useful thing we can get. There's no contract, so you can stop anytime.
