About Us

About VIVAM

We develop AI-powered solutions that give psychotherapists more time for what matters most: their patients.

Mission

Freeing psychotherapy from administrative burden

VIVAM was developed together with psychotherapists, straight from everyday practice. Because only those who know the daily routine can create real solutions.

Your experience and ideas feed directly into our ongoing development. Because we can only truly improve everyday therapeutic work together.

Our Values

Privacy First

Privacy is not an option, it is our foundation. All data stays local in the practice.

Outcome-focused

We measure ourselves by real results: the time therapists win back and the quality of their documentation.

Co-Creation

Built with psychotherapists, not just for them. Your experience shapes our product every day.

Rapid Iteration

We learn from every practice and improve the system continuously, transparently and traceably.
