About Dimini
Dimini is a demonstration project built for educational and research purposes. This represents our vision for the future of AI-assisted therapy support.
Dimini is an AI-powered therapy assistant that creates live semantic relationship maps during therapy sessions. As therapists conduct sessions with patients, Dimini automatically visualizes the topics, emotions, and their connections in real-time, helping therapists better understand patterns and relationships in patient conversations.
Our Mission
We believe that therapists should be fully present with their patients—not burdened by note-taking, pattern recognition, and documentation. Dimini was created to reduce cognitive load on mental health professionals while enhancing the quality of care through intelligent, real-time analysis.
By leveraging cutting-edge AI technology, we aim to illuminate the landscape of human conversation, revealing hidden connections and patterns that might otherwise go unnoticed during the intensity of a therapy session.
The Challenge We're Solving
During therapy sessions, mental health professionals face an overwhelming cognitive burden:
- Active listening while maintaining empathetic presence
- Real-time note-taking without breaking connection
- Pattern recognition across multiple sessions
- Historical context recall from previous conversations
- Insight generation to guide therapeutic interventions
This multitasking can lead to missed connections, incomplete documentation, and therapist burnout—ultimately affecting the quality of patient care.
How Dimini Works
Dimini employs advanced natural language processing and semantic AI to provide real-time support:
🎤 Listen
Processes therapy conversations through voice integration, transcribing and analyzing in real-time.
🧠 Extract
Uses GPT-4 to identify topics, emotions, people, and events as they emerge naturally in conversation.
🔗 Connect
Employs AI embeddings to discover semantic relationships between concepts mentioned at different times.
📊 Visualize
Creates beautiful, physics-based graphs that organize and display the therapy landscape intuitively.
Our Technology
Dimini leverages state-of-the-art AI and modern web technologies:
- OpenAI GPT-4 for natural language understanding and entity extraction
- Semantic Embeddings (text-embedding-3-small) for discovering hidden relationships
- Real-time WebSocket Architecture via Supabase for live graph updates
- Next.js 14 & React 19 for a responsive, modern interface
- PostgreSQL with pgvector for efficient similarity search
- Physics-based Visualization using React Force Graph
Built For
🏥 Mental Health Professionals
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors seeking to reduce documentation burden while improving session insights and pattern recognition.
🔬 Research & Academia
Psychology researchers, clinical trials, and academic institutions studying conversation patterns and therapeutic effectiveness.
🎓 Training & Education
Psychology students and training programs using session visualization for case study analysis and supervisor review.
🏢 Organizational Wellness
Employee assistance programs (EAP) and corporate mental health initiatives focused on scalable, quality care delivery.
The Innovation: Semantic Relationships
Unlike traditional note-taking or transcription tools, Dimini's core innovation is semantic relationship mapping. The system doesn't just record what was said—it understands the meaning behind the words.
Example:
- Minute 5: Patient mentions "girlfriend" and "argument"
- Minute 15: Patient mentions "anxiety" and "conflict avoidance"
- → Dimini automatically connects "argument" ↔ "conflict avoidance" (similarity: 0.81)
This semantic intelligence reveals patterns that might take therapists weeks to notice manually, enabling faster, more effective therapeutic interventions.
Project Vision
Dimini represents a proof-of-concept for the future of AI-assisted mental healthcare. While currently a demonstration project, our vision is to evolve this technology into a HIPAA-compliant, production-ready platform that empowers therapists worldwide.
We envision a future where technology handles the mechanical aspects of therapy documentation, freeing mental health professionals to focus entirely on what they do best: providing compassionate, effective care to those who need it.
