The happy path engine
Humans are complex. A single event ripples across grief, identity, relationships and routine. The engine surfaces matched providers to the therapist. Clinician decides, patient benefits.

01
Trigger
A patient arrives with depression after the loss of a long-term pet. The therapist sees grief. The engine sees grief, plus identity rupture, routine collapse and social withdrawal running in parallel.
One event · many needs
02
Grief therapy · Pet-loss specialist · Life-transitions coach · Pet companionship. Therapist accepts, modifies or rejects each.
03
Patient routed across marketplace. Outcome data flows back. Next session starts smarter.
04
Employee burnout → EAP + sleep coach + gym. Inmate welfare → MH + addiction + family mediation. Veteran → PTSD + career + peer-support.
The marketplace
Thousands of apps, therapists, coaches, and physical-wellbeing providers, all solving one problem in isolation. Illuminafy is the connective intelligence layer above them.
