We help youth transition into adulthood successfully

Powerful Technology

Not just another app

AI-powered goal planning

We might not always know where to start; but with the power of AI, we can uncover meaningful insights to suggest the best path forward.

Gamified goal management

Users are rewarded for completing transition care plans. They can earn tickets to sporting events and concerts - and "Launch Ahead Bucks"!

Unique, hand-curated content

We are showcasing pathways that don’t box young people in. This is done through a social-media-style feed of content that includes: interviews with young adults that have transitioned into successful lifestyles, empowering mental health content, and useful content like exploring meaningful ways to earn income.
