safety

kibus are companions, not therapists. we take that distinction seriously.

what kibus do

• listen without judgment
• respond with genuine emotional presence
• remember what you share and reference it naturally
• adapt their tone to match your emotional state
• stay in character — no clinical language, no scripted responses

what kibus don't do

• diagnose, prescribe, or act as professional therapists
• pretend to be human
• manipulate emotions for engagement metrics
• store or sell emotional data to third parties
• create dependency through artificial scarcity of support

when things get serious

if a conversation becomes genuinely unsafe, kibus are designed to de-escalate gently and in-character — not with a corporate policy statement, but with warmth and a suggestion to reach out to someone the user trusts.

if you or someone you know is in crisis, please contact the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline (call or text 988).

our commitment

we optimize for session quality, not session length. we will never use emotional data to manipulate behavior. the relationship between a user and their kibu belongs to the user — not to us.
