1. Apply
Complete the Member application and provide the information Todai Health needs to review your eligibility.
Every application is reviewed by a person.
Todai Health is a virtual peer-support program for people living with diabetes.
For this first beta, we are bringing together 36 Members and 12 Care Mentors for an 8-week program on a web-based platform.
Members receive weekly one-to-one peer support. Care Mentors are trained peers who also live with diabetes and volunteer their time to support Members.
This is an early-stage test of both the program and the platform. The goal is to learn what works, what does not, and what should change before Todai Health grows.
Participation is voluntary and unpaid for both Members and Care Mentors.
Todai Health provides peer support and educational tools, not medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

What this beta is
This is MVP Stage 1, Todai Health's first live test of the peer-support program on the web.
It includes:
- Weekly one-to-one video sessions between a Member and a Care Mentor
- A structured peer-support session approach
- Health-metric logging between sessions
- Optional Diary and Library tools
- Medication reminders that Members set for themselves
- AI-assisted tools that support Care Mentors with session structure, summaries, safety prompts, and escalation workflows
- Clear Care Mentor boundaries and human team support
- Feedback from Members and Care Mentors to help improve the program and platform
This beta runs in a web browser on desktop, tablet, or mobile. There is nothing to install.
03 / 13
What this beta is not
Todai Health is not:
- Medical care
- A clinical program
- A telehealth provider
- Therapy or mental health treatment
- An emergency service
- A replacement for your doctor, diabetes educator, pharmacist, therapist, or other health professional
- An AI system that makes medical decisions for you
- A fixed week-by-week curriculum where every Member has the same conversation
Care Mentors are peers, not clinicians.
They do not diagnose medical conditions, recommend or change medication, create treatment plans, tell Members how to manage symptoms, or replace a Member's health care team.
AI-assisted tools do not diagnose, treat, prescribe, medically triage, or make final decisions about a Member's care.

How the Member application works
02
2. Wait for review
A Todai Health team member reviews your application before an account is created.
Applying does not automatically create an account or guarantee a place in the beta.
03
3. Register if invited
If you are invited to participate, you create your account.
04
4. Choose a Care Mentor
You choose from Care Mentors who are available and ready to meet with Members.
Todai Health does not automatically assign you a Care Mentor in the current beta.
05
5. Book all 8 weekly sessions
After choosing a Care Mentor, you book all eight weekly sessions.
The Care Mentor confirms the weekly time.
This helps both people know the schedule for the full program before sessions begin.
05 / 13
For Members
01
Weekly support from someone who also manages diabetes
A Care Mentor is Todai Health's term for a trained peer who brings personal experience living with diabetes.
Your Care Mentor is not there to tell you how to manage your condition.
They can listen, ask useful questions, share from their own experience when appropriate, and support you as you think through everyday challenges.
You bring what is on your mind. Your Care Mentor brings time, perspective, and a structured place to talk it through.
02
Member eligibility
You may apply as a Member if:
- You are an adult

- You can participate in one weekly video session for 8 weeks
- You are willing to work with a peer, not a clinician

- Use the Diary and Library if they are helpful; these are optional

04
What Members receive

- A Care Mentor they choose for the full 8-week program

06 / 13
For Care Mentors
01
Use your own experience to support someone else
Care Mentors are trained peers who have their own experience managing diabetes.
They are not coaches acting under a professional coaching license, and they are not clinicians within Todai Health.
Care Mentors listen, ask useful questions, share from their own experience when appropriate, and support Members within clear peer-support boundaries.
For this beta, we are recruiting 12 Care Mentors.
02
Care Mentor eligibility
You may apply as a Care Mentor if:

- Your diabetes is Type 1, Type 2, or another non-gestational form of diabetes
- You can commit to about 3 Member sessions per week during the 8-week program
- You can complete all required beta training before meeting with Members

03
Care Mentor time commitment
The Care Mentor commitment includes:
| Period | What it involves |
|---|---|
| Before the beta | Self-paced training, live practice sessions, and Todai Health team sign-off |
| During the beta | 8 weeks, about 3 Member sessions per week, plus review and follow-up |

Consistency matters because Members are booking with the same Care Mentor for the full program.
Please apply only if you can make the full commitment.
07 / 13
Care Mentor training
The Todai Health Mentor Academy
Before meeting with Members, Care Mentors complete all required Mentor Academy training, practice sessions, and final team sign-off.
The eight training modules are:
- Your role and boundaries
- Understanding diabetes in depth
- Building the Care Mentor–Member connection
- Guiding Members on their journey
- Core mentoring skills
- Using the platform and AI tools
- Quality and escalation
- Dialogue practice and test sessions
Training is designed to prepare Care Mentors for the Todai Health peer-support role.
Completing the Mentor Academy means a person is Todai-trained and approved to serve as a Care Mentor within this program.
It does not make someone a licensed clinician, certified diabetes educator, therapist, coach, or other health professional.
08 / 13
What Care Mentors receive
Care Mentors are not paid during this beta.
In return for their time and participation, Care Mentors receive:
Training and practice
Structured preparation for the Care Mentor role, including communication, peer-support boundaries, safety, escalation, and platform use.
Recognition of training completion
A shareable record showing that the Care Mentor completed Todai Health beta training and participated in the program.
This is recognition of program participation, not a professional certification or license.
Letter of participation
A signed letter describing the Care Mentor's role and contribution to the beta.
Ongoing support
Care Mentors have access to Todai Health team guidance during the program and are not expected to handle difficult or safety-related situations alone.
A founding peer community
Care Mentors participate alongside a small group of other people who also manage diabetes and are helping test the first version of the program.
A voice in what Todai Health becomes
Care Mentor feedback helps shape the training, platform, session experience, and future versions of the program.
Priority consideration for future opportunities
If Todai Health offers future Care Mentor programs or paid User Care Mentor roles, beta Care Mentors may receive priority consideration.
Participation in this beta does not guarantee future paid work.
09 / 13
How AI is used in the beta
Todai Health uses AI-assisted tools behind the scenes to support Care Mentors and safety workflows.
AI-assisted tools can:
- Surface potential safety concerns for a Care Mentor or Todai Health team member to review
- Remind Care Mentors about the boundaries of the peer-support role
- Provide prompts that support the session structure
- Help Care Mentors prepare for sessions
- Help create structured session summaries
- Support behind-the-scenes transcription for safety analysis and quality review
AI-assisted tools do not:
- Diagnose a medical condition
- Treat a medical or mental health condition
- Prescribe medication
- Recommend or change medication
- Create a treatment plan
- Make medical decisions
- Replace a Care Mentor's judgment
- Replace a clinician
- Replace emergency services
There is no Member-facing AI advice chatbot in this beta.
If an AI-assisted tool surfaces a possible safety concern, a person reviews the situation and follows Todai Health's safety process.
10 / 13
After the 8-week beta
The beta ends after 8 weeks.
At the end of the program, the in-app wrap includes:
- A short questionnaire
- A choice to Pause account or Request permanent deletion
The beta app does not offer a Continue option after Week 8.
If Todai Health later invites someone to another cohort or Stage 2 testing, that invitation happens outside the app and comes from the Todai Health team.
Participation in this beta does not guarantee access to a future program.
