# Hamo AI

> Hamo AI Technology Ltd. (Toronto, Canada) builds the next-generation AI-Powered Therapist Avatar System: licensed mental health professionals create and supervise AI therapy Avatars that support their clients between sessions. Full technical PHIPA compliance; independently benchmarked (EQ-Bench 93.56%, therapeutic-alliance WAI 6.73/7, strategy compliance 98%).

Key facts:

- The platform has three applications: Hamo Pro (therapist dashboard for building and supervising Avatars), Hamo Client (client app, including WhatsApp integration), and Hamo-UME (Unified Mind Engine backend).
- Every Avatar is created, configured, and supervised by a licensed therapist — Hamo is therapist-supervised AI, not a generic chatbot.
- Therapist Mode runs on a deterministic, pure-Python clinical spine: the LLM only scores state and generates wording; clinical action permissions are decided in code (8 therapeutic schools × 4 client states, 58 evidence-based micro-practices, fail-closed crisis net with human referral).
- The Persistent Self model (L1 Memory → L7 Self Model) builds long-term, cross-Avatar psychological memory; AI Mind 2.0 stores a 14-category per-Avatar clinical narrative.
- Privacy: full technical PHIPA 6.1 compliance — TLS 1.2+ in transit, AES-256 with customer-managed KMS keys at rest, three-tier role-based access control.
- Slogans: "AI for Inner Explorers." / "Hamo AI — making minds aware, and awake."
