Mimi Healing. Together. On your terms.

Mimi is a Nairobi-born mental wellness startup building culturally-aware digital companions for African youth.

Our app blends AI, local language, and storytelling to tackle stigma, shame, and burnout — offering anonymous check-ins and an AI mascot, Mero the Pup, who “gets” the user’s slang and context.

With therapy costly and foreign tools disconnected from African realities, Mimi delivers a low-data, offline-friendly experience for the 120M+ Gen Z and Millennials in Sub-Saharan Africa.

The market is massive, underserved, and ready — and we’re here to make mental health local, relatable, and stigma-free.
