HypnoTrack

A SaaS platform that generates personalized hypnosis audio tracks for behavior change. You tell it what you want to work on — sleep, anxiety, quitting smoking, building confidence — and it builds you a custom hypnosis session from scratch, using AI to write the script and ElevenLabs to voice it.

The whole thing is personalized: your name woven into the audio, your specific triggers addressed, your preferred relaxation style guiding the session structure. Not a generic recording. Something made specifically for you.

The App

A fully working React MVP. Users pick a goal, answer personalization questions, choose a therapist persona, customize the voice and session length, then generate and listen.

Each therapist persona brings a genuinely different approach — distinct induction methods, pacing, signature phrases, and specializations. Sarah Mitchell focuses on mindfulness and breath work. James takes a structured CBT approach. The persona you choose shapes the entire session.

The personalization flow lets you go shallow (4 questions, 2 minutes) or deep (15 questions, 8 minutes). After answering, you fine-tune the voice, preview the full AI-generated script, and generate the audio.

See the User Guide for a complete walkthrough of every screen.

Research

Every product decision traces back to one of sixteen research documents — covering hypnosis science, CBT integration, architecture, pricing, TTS providers, UX flows, adaptive feedback, and more. Each one is interactive and browsable as a standalone web page.

See Research & Documentation for the full breakdown with screenshots of every document.

Presentations

Four interactive presentations communicate the project to different audiences.

AI Therapy Debate — A 17-slide pitch deck with two speakers debating AI's role in mental health. Full audio narration, synced subtitles, and visual data storytelling. Builds from the access gap (77M Europeans need help) through the cost barrier to a proposed hybrid model.

Hypnotherapy Guide — Six interconnected educational pages covering what hypnotherapy is, what CBT is, the neuroscience of trance, script structure, research evidence, and the history from Mesmer to modern practice.

App Guide — Product marketing page with features, pricing, the adaptive feedback loop, and available courses.
