Founded in clinical expertise. Scaled through AI.
The frameworks behind Teman are a practising counsellor’s, and they sit in two curated knowledge bases. The safety that matters is in the code, not in the model’s judgement.
2 knowledge bases
6 layers per reply
24/7 real crisis lines
What happens the moment risk appears
- A fixed screen reads every message before the AI is called at all — it does not depend on the model noticing
- A matched message gets a written reply carrying the real numbers — 1771, SOS 1767, 995 — never a generated one
- The conversation is flagged on the record, and the flag survives even if the conversation is deleted
- A qualified counsellor is one booking away, at their own published fee, whenever you want a person
Simple, honest pricing
Talk without an account for a short run — a free account, no card, keeps it going. S$10 a month takes the limits off. A counsellor session is billed at that counsellor’s own fee, and Teman collects it on their behalf.
