MoodTools – Depression Support in Your Pocket
Client Background
A group of psychology grad students turned mental health entrepreneurs. They came to us with a serious mission: make evidence-based therapeutic tools available to anyone struggling with depression — no gatekeeping, no subscriptions, no fluff.
What
We Did
We built a structure around simplicity: clean UI, straightforward navigation, and zero distractions. Features like the “Thought Diary” and “Activities Planner” were intentionally stripped of anything flashy — because clarity was the cure here
The
Challenge
They had the research. They needed the experience. How do you turn CBT principles into something that’s approachable and usable, even during someone’s worst mental health days?
When your mission is real, your app should reflect it. We’re proud to build those.
The Outcome
MoodTools became a staple mental health app globally, especially in university health systems and peer support communities. It still stands as one of the few apps in the space that puts accessibility over monetization.
