For clinicians & clinics
A free tool you can suggest to your client.
NöroKalkan is not a digital therapist; it’s an app anyone struggling with addiction can use for free. If you think it fits a client, you can tell them "there’s a free tool, try it if you want" — like recommending a wellness app. No registration, no fee for you, no configuration, no "network to join." The client opens it at their own initiative; the tool never diagnoses, never routes anyone anywhere, and if it senses crisis language it shows a fixed helpline.
How to use it
There’s nothing for you to set up — you just point to it.
Just say "this exists"
You give the client the name of the tool; the rest is up to them. You don’t fill in a form, open an account, or contact us.
For the client, and for you
The tool is free for the user; you are charged nothing either — no access fee, no certification, no membership. NöroKalkan does not send you clients and takes no share of your session revenue.
There’s no structure to join
There is no "clinician network," application process, or approval to wait for. Think of it like a wellness app: if you think it fits a client, you mention it; if not, you don’t.
Whether and when to use it is the client’s call
The client opens it or not, and chooses when to use it. They may come to the next session with a record of what happened instead of "I lost again" — but that too is the client’s choice.
Safety principles
What we won’t do is as clear as what we will.
No layer of the app diagnoses, classifies risk, routes your client anywhere automatically, or decides on their behalf. If crisis language is detected, a fixed helpline is shown; the client decides. We don’t market the effect with unproven language; we aim to measure whether it helps with our own data and to share the result.
There is no heavy board or governance structure. If the product expands in a clinical direction in the future — for instance, a tool a clinician configures for their own client — we will seek an independent outside opinion (regulatory, legal, ethics) on our own initiative and announce it publicly. Today this is neither a requirement nor an approval gate. Because clinicians are charged nothing and there is no "network" or participation agreement, the relationship is simple: you suggest the tool to your client, and if you wish, you contribute to its development as a volunteer.
Help shape it
If you work in addiction, your input is valuable.
You can contribute as a volunteer, informal advisor. There is no binding authority or approval role; your contribution is unpaid or for a token honorarium. Clinicians who register interest also form the natural candidate pool if an advisory board is convened later. We’re looking for input in these areas:
Content accuracy
Making sure the mechanism narrative, the exercises and the tool copy are clinically accurate and written in language that does no harm.
The tool library
Suggestions on which in-the-moment exercises and friction techniques belong in the library.
The crisis-referral flow
The wording, timing and limits of the helpline referral shown when a crisis signal is detected.
Later measurement design
Designing the outcome measures and method of a pilot that will honestly measure whether the tool helps.
