Description
About Limbic
Limbic is a London based clinical AI startup on a mission to make high quality mental healthcare accessible to everyone, everywhere. The way we do that is by deploying AI responsibly, using it to augment clinical care and reduce barriers to accessing therapy at scale.
Limbic is already used in over 50% of Talking Therapies in the NHS, and in some of the biggest healthcare providers in the US, which makes us the largest ever deployment of AI for direct patient care. Limbic is deemed safe and effective after successfully gaining UKCA Class IIa certification, the only AI mental health chatbot in the world to do so.
Our products are proven to significantly improve outcomes in NHS and international health settings: increasing recovery rates, cutting dropouts, and enabling round the clock, AI driven intake and support. We are now looking for a mission driven, experienced psychiatrist to help us further accelerate our vision to build the future of mental healthcare.
