Berries was founded by Yuval and Tal, inspired by a blend of personal and family experiences. When Yuval’s father was diagnosed with cancer, he witnessed firsthand the complexities of the healthcare system due to lack of staff and burden, which made recovering even more challenging.

This experience, combined with both Yuval and Tal's personal struggles with anxiety, fueled their dedication to improving mental health care. They created Berries, an AI scribe for mental health professionals, to reduce their burdens and allow them to focus on their true passion, thereby enhancing patient care and making mental health services more accessible to patients and clients.
