What it costs
Free to start, S$10 a month for Teman. Counsellor sessions are billed at the counsellor’s own fee.
The counsellor panel
Qualified counsellors, each with their own credentials listed. Book an hour, at the fee they set.
Check-in
Four sliders, thirty seconds, and a line that shows which way things moved.
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.
