Clinical answers with the evidence trail in view.
Ask a hard mental-health question. Kira searches the library, grades the evidence, cites sources, and shows its work when support is thin.

Built to show its work.
Kira doesn't just generate text. It searches, reasons about what it found, and tells you when it's uncertain.
Searches, then answers
Every response is grounded in retrieved articles, with sources attached so you can read them yourself.
Compares conditions
Ask “BPD vs bipolar” and Kira builds a structured comparison - symptoms, timecourse, neurobiology, treatment - side by side with citations.
Tells you what it doesn't know
When retrieved evidence is thin, Kira says so. It flags uncertainty, suggests screeners where appropriate, and never pretends to be a substitute for professional evaluation.
Cited comparison guides
Static guides cover high-confusion searches like BPD vs bipolar, ADHD vs bipolar, OCD intrusive thoughts vs psychosis, and panic attack vs heart attack.
Validated screeners
Take PHQ-9, GAD-7, PCL-5, and other published screening instruments. Kira can suggest relevant screeners based on your question and incorporate results into conversation.
Understands casual language
You don't need clinical vocabulary. Say “my brain won't shut up” and Kira maps that to the right clinical concepts and retrieves the right evidence.
Under the hood
Watch the pipeline handle a hard question.
Query rewriting, hybrid search, retrieval grading, clinical facet detection, and answer drafting, all visible in real time.
Rewrite
Turns casual language into clinical search intent.
Retrieve
Combines sparse and semantic matches from the library.
Grade
Checks whether the evidence is strong enough to answer.
Draft
Builds a cited answer with safety boundaries.
Verify
Blocks unsupported clinical claims before release.
What you can ask about.
Kira draws from a structured knowledge base covering psychiatry and clinical psychology - DSM-5 disorders, treatments, neuroscience, and more.
Conditions & Disorders
Depression, anxiety, PTSD, OCD, bipolar, personality disorders, psychotic disorders, and clinical differentials.

Screeners
PHQ-9, GAD-7, PCL-5, ASRS, and other validated instruments you can take interactively.
Neuroscience
Amygdala, prefrontal cortex, HPA axis, serotonin pathways, neuroplasticity - the biology behind symptoms.
Clinical Glossary
Plain-language definitions of clinical terms - affect, akathisia, ego-dystonic, serotonin syndrome, and more.
Limitations
Kira is an educational tool, not a clinician.
Useful for understanding conditions, treatments, and clinical concepts. Has real limits. Here are three you should know.
- No diagnosis
- Kira can describe how conditions present and what distinguishes them. Only a qualified professional can diagnose.
- No crisis care
- If you're in crisis, contact 988(Suicide & Crisis Lifeline), text HOME to 741741, or call local emergency services.
- Grounding
- Clinical claims are checked against retrieved sources before release. When evidence is thin, Kira should say so instead of filling the gap. Reliability work is documented.
- Library v2
- The public article library is in active rebuild after the Q2 source-quality audit. The live count will resume increasing only when the new corpus passes the grounding gate.
