That sounds really tough. Let's break this down together, one step at a time. 💙
What Rigby Does

Built for the real challenges
students face

More than a chatbot, Rigby is a structured support system grounded in evidence-based SEL frameworks.

24/7 Conversational Support
Students get immediate, judgment-free support anytime. No appointments, no waitlists, no stigma.
SEL-Based Guidance
Rigby uses CASEL-aligned Social Emotional Learning frameworks to build resilience, self-awareness, and coping skills.
Crisis Detection & Escalation
Built-in detection protocols identify high-risk conversations and redirect students to campus resources or emergency services.
Institutional Dashboard
Administrators access anonymized insights: engagement trends, early warning indicators, and retention data, without compromising student privacy.
FERPA-Compliant by Design
Timestamped consent tracking, session gating, and encrypted data storage ensure full FERPA compliance from day one.
Designed for Campus Life
Built specifically for college students navigating stress, anxiety, loneliness, and academic pressure, not a generic mental health app.
