Psychologist and I built Navii, the first real human mental health navigator for people seeking the best kind of treatment for their situation (free)

My girlfriend and I put together this free resource for people who are ready to get the help they need to feel like themselves again.

I’ve felt the challenges of finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, or therapy not working out, and wanting to try something different. I didn’t know the first thing about specialists or psychologists, what they cost, or in/out-of-network, etc. We also want to help people find alternative treatments things that aren’t necessarily mainstream yet.

Part of the problem is when you’re struggling you don’t have the capacity to make the effort to find the right kind of care.

We’re in the alpha phase, https://trynavii.co is live, but we’re still building the marketplace. Between us we have a large network of providers at all levels of care, so we’re working with them to build the supply side and we have plans for the demand side as well.

Would love to hear your feedback on our idea. We’re going to avoid using AI for now because it’s not what people are looking for when it comes to their mental health.

I’m building Nuuly for men and it’s starting to scale

I’m looking for some insight here because I have a few goals for my company, Rent with Thred, and I’m operationally ready to hit them by the end of the year. I launched a few years ago and consistently month over month we reach a capacity of nearly 80% of inventory rented.

Unfortunately customers are churning from limited inventory (and that's the only reason).

How would you grow from seed-stage rental company, to Nuuly (420,069 subscribers)?

We have the operations in place to scale fast, but rely on cash flow to improve inventory.

Looking for an oils copacker, but also curious what the typical costs are for R&D, bottling, etc.. I can design the labels, market and sell it, just need to find a producer.

Is there any group you’d recommend?
