Parazute

About Parazute

With Parazute™, relatives may stay calm while their mentally ill loved ones may have peace of mind.

As relatives, there’s a lot of stress and anxiety at stake every day, and you’re desperately trying to help your loved ones. With Parazute, you’ll be notified should a mentally ill friend or a family member need your support.

With Parazute, patients may have peace of mind.

As a mentally ill person, it’s only natural that you can find it challenging to reach out for help when you are free-falling. To help you, Parazute deploys support from your network when your mental status negatively changes. Early support - even with minor changes in mental status can prevent hospitalization, self-damage, or even more unnecessary fatal tragedies.

Parazute can be used for all mental disorders where support from the social network is sometimes needed to move forward, such as ADHD, anxiety, bipolar disorder, borderline, dementia, depression, addiction disorders, OCD, PTSD, psychoses, self-harm, schizophrenia, eating disorders, stress, etc.

How Parazute works

The Parazute app reports the mental health status to the network based on a few daily inputs. It is less than one minute of effort for the patient. In case of adverse development in mental status – the self-selected “Parazuters” made up of family, friends, and even caregivers that the patient already trust today, get notified that the patient need some love.

Parazute cannot diagnose mental illnesses nor assess the relative level of a given mental state, for example, severe, moderate, or mild depression.

Parazute is also not a treatment but only early detection of a change in mental state and then activation of support from the network.

In case of indication of self-harm, always seek help actively.

Parazute is developed by patients, relatives, and mental healthcare professionals in close collaboration with the Danish National Association for Mental Health.


Our social commitment is more than just words.

Parazute has been built from the ground up in a true co-creation spirit. Every employee at Parazute has hands-on experience within the mental illness field, whether it’s being a patient, a relative, or a healthcare professional – simply put, it’s a job requirement.

We’re committed to donating 30% of our monthly basis fees directly towards scientific research to actively help the study of digital psychiatry and the emotional well-being of relatives.
