About NovaHEART
We're building the infrastructure layer for community-scale resilience. Not apps. Not features. The operating system that lets communities care for themselves.
Our Mission
Generic AI chatbots are dangerous for vulnerable populations. They hallucinate, they cross boundaries, they can't be audited. But charities, universities, mental health services—they desperately need digital tools to extend their reach because human services are overwhelmed.
We've built a platform where organisations can configure boundaried AI agents—think an ADHD companion, or an anxiety de-escalator, or a trauma-informed grounding tool—with safety as a first-class feature, not an afterthought.
We also build community engagement platforms that create sustainable local economies around shared goals. The through-line is: we build infrastructure for communities to care for themselves, at scale, with dignity.
Our Values
Safety is infrastructure
Not a checkbox. Not a feature. The foundation everything else is built on.
Duty of care is non-negotiable
If you're building for vulnerable people, you must be able to prove your system is safe.
Generative economics
Build systems where everyone wins—users, communities, organisations, businesses.
Lived experience matters
Survivor-built systems understand what consultant-guessed systems miss.
