Bond's AI therapist wants to monetize your mental health recovery

Bond is betting that the antidote to doomscrolling addiction—AI-driven intervention wrapped in therapeutic language—is itself a monetizable asset class. By positioning the platform as a behavioral cure rather than another engagement engine, Becirovic and his team rebrand the surveillance-and-sell model as benevolent. The product remains unchanged: your behavioral patterns and memory data become training material and targeting vectors. A former DeepMind researcher building a "post-feed" network funded by venture capital has no structural incentive to keep you offline, only to convince you that your time there serves your wellness first.
