Keeping a calm place open costs something
Solacse is built to be quiet, safe and grounded in real research — and to stay that way it needs infrastructure, clinical review and engineering behind it every single day. Donations and investment go directly into that work, never into ads or selling what people share with us.
Mission, purpose and what we do
Our mission
Give anyone a warm, unhurried place to set things down — between therapy sessions, after hours, on the ordinary hard days.
Our purpose
Emotional support that doesn't guess. Every substantive claim is retrieved from vetted clinical research, with crisis routing hard-coded, not improvised.
What we do
Voice and text companionship, mood & pattern tracking, journaling, long-term memory you control, and a vetted directory of licensed professionals.
Where the funding goes
A plain, honest breakdown of what it takes to run the Solacse workflow.
LLM & inference
≈$9,800 / yearEvery warm reply, deep reflection and safety pass is a paid model call. Volume grows with every person who needs a soft place to land.
Voice mode
≈$8,400 / yearNatural, empathetic speech synthesis is billed per second. Voice is the most-loved feature and the most expensive one.
Clinical RAG pipeline
≈$6,200 / yearContinuous ingestion from PubMed, Semantic Scholar, OpenAlex, Crossref, MedlinePlus and ClinicalTrials.gov, plus embedding and re-indexing of every paper.
GPUs & vector storage
≈$5,400 / yearEmbeddings, semantic cache and long-term personal memory run on GPU-backed vector infrastructure that must stay warm and fast.
Backend & API upkeep
≈$4,300 / yearDatabases, encrypted storage, uptime, backups, rate limits and third-party API quotas across the whole workflow.
Safety & product work
≈$9,900 / yearWeekly safety audits, crisis routing coverage by country, clinician review, front-end and back-end engineering, design and accessibility.
Altogether, keeping Solacse complete, safe and independent costs ≈$44,000 a year — and grows as more people arrive.
