THE WEIGHT YOU CARRY

You Train for Every Call. Except This One.

Every call demands split-second decisions.
Managing fear when entering a burning building.
Staying composed during a traumatic scene.
Leading your crew through chaos.

You already do this. It's not luck; it's a skill.

But here's what no one tells you:Mental readiness, your ability to stay focused, composed, and in control isn't just about feelings.

It's a performance skill.

And like any skill, it gets stronger with practice. Or weaker without it.

WHAT IS OKAYA?

Built for First Responders

You wouldn't skip PT and expect to drag hose on game day.
You wouldn't skip SCBA checks and hope your gear works.

Your mental readiness is no different.

It needs regular checks. Small reps. Consistent practice.

That's what Okaya is: A 3-minute daily rep for your mental fitness.

Not therapy. Not tracking. Not another report for your chief.

Just a quick check-in that strengthens self-awareness, speeds recovery after tough calls, and keeps you mission-ready.

Using Okaya regularly, you'll develop a heightened sense of your subtle stressors and how they affect your performance. The insight empowers you to take proactive steps before they can impact your personal life or mission, helping you stay your best for both your team and your loved ones.

Tech That learns you

Real time insights from voice, face and words.  No wearables required.

we know camera hesitation is real. Especially for something tied to stress and mental health.

So here's our guiding principle:Your camera turns on during your check-in. The AI analyzes your micro-expressions, voice tone, and word patterns in real-time in the same way a trained peer supporter would read your body language during a conversation.

Then it immediately converts everything to data points. The video never leaves your device, is not recorded or stored.

Think of it like a thermometer for your mental readiness. The thermometer touches your forehead for 3 seconds, gets a reading, then it's done. It doesn't keep a recording of your forehead.

Work computer doesn't have a camera?
No problem. Use your personal phone or tablet. Same 3 minutes, same insights.

My Okaya scores made me realize I needed to reach out for help. As therapy progressed I could see my score improve again.

The scores so far actually feel quite accurate and relatable for me. For example, today I received a lower score, which makes sense because I slept very poorly. I can really recognize myself in the results

I completed the check-in. It was pretty smooth, I like how the AI provides follow-up action items and the scores at the end.
