Grido AB today announced the European launch of Grido, a voice-first AI mental wellbeing companion, available now on the App Store across the EU.
Most AI mental wellbeing tools are a chat window wrapped around a model. Grido starts somewhere else. You open the app and speak. The companion listens, answers in a natural voice, and remembers what matters. It is a character you return to and a relationship that builds, not a tool you prompt.
That choice is deliberate. People do not want to type how they feel into a text box. Voice is faster, warmer, and more honest. Grido removes the keyboard and makes talking the entire interface. Its first instruction is simple. Just talk.
Grido is also built sovereign by design. Its data and infrastructure stay within European jurisdiction, under European privacy law. For a mental wellbeing market where personal voice data is among the most sensitive information a person can share, where that data lives is not a footnote. It is the product.
“We did not want to build another chatbot,” said Hira Verick, co-founder of Grido. “People want to talk, and they want to be heard.”
Grido is a mental wellbeing companion for everyday life, not a clinical or medical product. It is built for the moments when people want to think out loud and feel supported.
No signup. New users get 60 minutes free, then from €5.99 per month.
Grido AB is a Swedish company building a European-sovereign, voice-first AI wellbeing companion. Grido is designed around a character, an environment, and a relationship rather than a chat box, with privacy and European data sovereignty built in from the start. Learn more at grido.ai.
