Hedepy Raises €4M Venture Debt From Orbit Capital to Expand
Czech online therapy platform Hedepy has secured €4 million in venture debt from Orbit Capital to fund acquisitions and growth across nine European countries.

Czech mental health platform Hedepy has secured €4 million in venture debt financing from Orbit Capital. The company plans to use the money to speed up growth, including through strategic acquisitions in markets where it is already established.
Hedepy connects clients with certified professionals who have completed psychotherapy training. After its 2020 launch, it facilitated 700 sessions in the first three months; by 2025 that figure had reached 300,000 sessions a year. It began expanding abroad in 2021 and now operates in nine European countries with nearly 1,200 therapists.
A consolidation play in a fragmented market
Europe's mental health market is made up of many small local providers, and Hedepy wants to consolidate it. Last year it acquired HearMe, a Polish workplace mental health platform, and folded its clients, services and technology into Hedepy For Business. More than 300 companies now offer Hedepy as an employee benefit, reaching over 300,000 employees.
Beyond individual and couples therapy, the service covers teenagers aged 13 and over and online psychiatric care. In the Czech Republic and Slovakia, it partners with health insurers whose members receive a contribution towards online therapy.
“We have a proven business model, experience completing acquisitions and a clear plan for deploying the funding,” said co-founder and CEO Lukáš Krčil. Lukáš Macko, Partner at Orbit Capital, said venture debt suits this stage because it funds growth without diluting shareholders.
Physical care, AI and therapist tools
Hedepy is also preparing its own physical locations and building a dedicated healthcare arm for clinical services. It plans to add AI tools that help clients continue working on topics from sessions between appointments, positioned as support for human care rather than a replacement.
For therapists, the company is developing Therapist Office, a digital workspace for scheduling, administration, invoicing, session insights and tracking client progress. The new funding is meant to help Hedepy pursue acquisitions, widen its services and connect local professionals in a single ecosystem.
