The average cost of one session of therapy in United States ranges from $100 - $200. For many people, going therapy is part of their weekly routine. Not only is this very expensive, but also discourages people from seeking mental support. Lily's subscription is $9.99 a month making it extremely cost efficient compared to traditional therapy. According to their website, 40x times cheaper.
Lily uses voice enabled technology, so users are able to speak into their device's microphones to voice their emotions. Lily is able to respond, making the whole interaction very realistic.
