Affect

Affect (operating at affect.com) is a nationally scaled, online provider of therapy and psychiatric services for mental health and substance use disorders. Founded in 2021 with a mission to revolutionize addiction treatment, Affect was built to address the gaps in accessibility, speed, and effectiveness of traditional recovery programs. Under the hood, the platform leverages virtual clinic services to deliver evidence-based care through telehealth, removing barriers like geographic limitations and wait times. This allows individuals struggling with addiction or mental health challenges to access professional support seamlessly, accelerating recovery and improving long-term outcomes. Backed by a $16 million Series A funding round led by ARTIS Ventures and a subsequent $26 million Series B raise, Affect is positioned to expand its reach and refine its model for broader impact.
