Help people find your tool — when they need it most
Honeycomb guides people to the right mental health support through a careful, evidence-based conversation. If your tool meets our standards, we'll connect it with the people it can help.
We don't diagnose, treat, or provide emergency services. We help people find what works for them.
The problem
20,000+
Mental health apps worldwide
Most people never find the right one.
The digital mental health space is growing fast — but so is the noise. People searching for support face an overwhelming number of options, most without clear quality signals. Good tools get lost. People give up, or choose poorly.
Why it works
Qualified demand, not cold traffic
Every user who reaches your tool through Honeycomb has been through a guided conversation with Bee — our AI companion. They've reflected on what they need, explored their options, and chosen your tool with intent.
That means higher engagement, lower churn, and users who are genuinely ready to begin.

Why join
Be discovered by the people you built your tool for
Honeycomb isn't an app store or a directory. It's a guided experience that connects people to a small number of best-fit options — based on their needs, not ad spend or search rankings.
Qualified intent
Users arrive after a guided conversation that narrows down what they need — so discovery starts with fit, not guesswork.
Context-aware matching
Bee routes users based on what they're looking for and what your tool is designed to help with.
Trust by design
We prioritize evidence, privacy, accessibility, and clarity — helping users choose with confidence.
Benefits

How it works
From application to discovery
A partnership built on transparency. Here's what the process looks like — from your first step to your first matched user.

Our standards
How we evaluate digital mental health tools
Every tool on Honeycomb is reviewed against three core dimensions. We believe people deserve to know what they're choosing — and why.
Clarity
Is the app or website clear about what it does and who it's for?
- ✓Clear purpose and description
- ✓Defined target audience
- ✓Accessible contact options
Accessibility
Can people actually use it — easily, affordably, and without barriers?
- ✓User-friendly interface
- ✓Transparent pricing
- ✓Low technical barriers
Reliability
Can the tool and its provider be trusted with people's wellbeing?
- ✓Credible provider standing
- ✓Evidence-based methodology
- ✓Responsible data practices
Not every tool needs published RCTs — but we do expect honest claims, safety boundaries, and transparency. Learn more about our methodology →

Frequently asked questions
There is no upfront cost to apply or be listed. Honeycomb's model is built on helping users find the right fit — not on charging providers for visibility. We may introduce partnership tiers in the future, but listing eligibility will always be based on quality, not payment.
Most reviews are completed within 2–4 weeks. Tools with recognized accreditations (DiGA, ORCHA, etc.) may qualify for expedited review. We'll keep you updated at each stage.
No. Recommendations are based entirely on user needs and tool fit. Commercial relationships never influence what Bee recommends. We believe transparency is the foundation of trust — for users and partners alike.
We welcome digital mental health tools that support people's wellbeing — including self-help apps, guided therapy platforms, assessment tools, and psychoeducation resources. We review tools across the spectrum, from prevention to clinical support.
Yes. We encourage partners to keep their information current. Significant changes to your tool's scope, pricing, or evidence base may trigger a re-review — but we'll work with you through the process.
We share anonymized, aggregated signals — such as how often your tool is recommended, how users engage with your listing, and what needs they typically have. We never share individual user data or identifiable information.
