Elomia Health has acquired Earkick, an AI companion that more than 250,000 people use to vent and to keep track of their emotional state. The deal expands Elomia's AI-based mental wellbeing platform with an established product and user base.

Earkick lets users talk through what is on their mind while it tracks patterns in mood, sleep, activity and daily habits. That combination of conversation and self-monitoring is what the company says has drawn its audience of more than a quarter of a million people.

Why it matters

AI companions for mental wellbeing are a crowded and fast-moving area, and acquiring a product with an existing user community is a quicker route to scale than building one from scratch. For Earkick users, the deal places the app inside a larger wellbeing platform.

The material available does not disclose financial terms, nor how the two products will be combined. Earkick was founded by Ukrainian entrepreneur Taras Pohrebniak.
