AI-backed therapy platform Jimini has landed $8 million in pre-seed funding.
The New York-based startup matches patients with a licensed clinician. Prior to the first appointment, Jimini’s AI therapist assistant, dubbed Sage, will initiate activities with the patient to help gather information to help the therapist conduct the first session.
