Summary

Servant.io has developed an app designed to equip individuals in the midst of a personal struggle with personalized insights, relevant growth content, and localized human connections. The app enables users to leverage AI to analyze their own behavioral data from other platforms and reveal new growth opportunities. The app's Insight Engine also combines ML and partner APIs to provide the user with a tailored list of external faith and non-faith content to support their journey, as well as opportunities for human connection through Gloo's Match API. Users can respond to these content and relational experiences in the app through daily guided introspection prompts, which the Insights Engine uses to provide increasingly more custom insights and next step recommendations. Throughout the journey the app provides the user with complete control over how their data is used and shared.

Full Description


Gaining Ground (GG) is a mobile web app that equips individuals in the midst of personal struggles to flourish.

GG follows proven psychological processes to:

• Create a foundation of TRUST
• IDENTIFY the problem
• ACKNOWLEDGE  the issue
• Create a GROWTH plan
• GAMIFICATION to drive engagement of biblically curated CONTENT
• CONNECTION with faith-based organizations facilitating COMMUNITY

The User Experience begins with TRUST and a hyper-personalized journey with fine-grained OAuth consent; aggregating existing online resources from Spotify, Youtube, Apple Health Kit, or other APIs. Next, it builds TRUST with the user providing rich data protection and consent; designed to move away from the secular idealism where “the user is the product” to an experience where the user benefits from the product in meaningful ways. This is accomplished via an ML insight engine that identifies likely mental health issues and shares those results with the user.

Results Quantification begins the User acknowledgement process composed by a multi-layered AI-driven conversational Q/A;  gleaning additional data from the user whilst enhancing trust with consent prompts anytime PII is submitted. GG adds Faith-based tuned AI content to the user's Growth Path, providing a tailored list of external biblical-based content stemming from YouVersion, Bible Project, and others.

Lastly, the app leverages the hyper-personalized profile data to encourage the user into Kingdom communities. GG provides automated consent-driven introductions surfaced through the Gloo Match API to encourage users to join Kingdom support groups. Bridging online and offline experiences enables them to flourish and Gain Ground against the struggles they face.
