Relationship app for couples: shared voice or text check-ins, daily activities and coaching prompts.
Maia is built for two people rather than a solo journal. Both partners talk to the same assistant by voice or text, and it returns prompts, daily activities, quizzes and suggestions aimed at defusing recurring arguments or planning time together, sharpening its advice as it sees more of how the pair actually interacts. Dr. Marisa T. Cohen, a licensed marriage and family therapist, helped train it, and the founders pitch it against the six-year gap couples typically leave before seeking help. The company is a two-person team in San Francisco founded in 2023 by Claire Wiley and Ralph Ma, and went through Y Combinator's Winter 2024 batch. It ships free on iOS and Android with in-app purchases.
Free to download on both stores with in-app purchases. The vendor publishes no tier list or figure on its site, and store reviews mention a subscription without agreeing on a number, so none is recorded.
Use tool ↗Maia is one of the few relationship apps where both partners share one assistant instead of each keeping a private chat, which changes what the advice can be about. Therapist involvement in training gives it more grounding than a generic chatbot with a relationship prompt. It is a two-person company with no published pricing, so both the roadmap and the bill are unknowns.
Watch out: It is psychoeducation, not therapy, and a two-person YC company holding both partners' conversations is a meaningful privacy surface.
