Where Emotional Intelligence Meets Possibility
OpenHI: Unlocking Life Mastery.
“Positive emotions have been experimentally shown to help humans behave more communally and more creatively and learn more quickly.”
— George E. Vaillant, MD
At OpenHI, we know emotional intelligence is humanity’s greatest superpower and the foundation of a dynamic, fulfilling life.
We create technology that helps people know themselves deeply, trust their inner voice, and move through the world with strength, compassion, and security—unlocking creativity, humane innovation, and limitless potential.
OpenHI’s emotionally smart and attuned technology promotes and strengthens human connection across classrooms, cultures, families, and communities.
🧠 Emotional intelligence accounts for over 60% of people’s personal and professional achievements.
🌱 Only about 36% of people worldwide are emotionally intelligent.
🛠️ 90% of top performers at work have high emotional intelligence (EQ).
👨👩👧 Emotional intelligence, also emotional quotient (EQ), refers to your ability to understand, control, use, and manage your emotions to relate well with others and overcome challenges.
📊 The demand for EI skills will grow by 6x in the next 3-5 years
💡 The Intelligent Quotient (IQ) only accounts for 20% of success. This is because social and emotional intelligence are the significant determinants of success.
In a world moving faster than ever, the ability to understand ourselves, connect with others, and navigate emotions with skill, self- awareness, and compassion is what sets true leaders, creators, and change-makers apart.
OpenHI’s wise companion, LuMii, facilitates the emotional skills human beings are hardwired to experience and science has proven to enhance physical health, cognitive learning, retention, and creativity.
With a myriad of tools, interactive self-reflection, personalized growth journeys, and prompts—LuMii connects within the core pillars of well-being, supporting the experience of healthier, happier humans and futures.
Positive emotions are so much more than simply happy states of mind. They expand the bandwidth of our attention and cognition.
Self-reflection (thinking about the things you find important)—can help people develop the skills needed to make positive, healthful changes.
People who are emotionally well have fewer negative emotions and are able to bounce back from difficulties faster. This quality is called resilience.
Developing a sense of meaning and purpose in life—and focusing on what’s important to you—also contributes to emotional wellness.
People also need negative emotions to move through difficult situations and respond to them appropriately.
Positive emotions expand our awareness and open us up to new ideas, so we can grow and add to our toolkit for survival.
Emotional wellness is linked to improved health, including lower blood pressure, reduced risk for heart disease, healthier weight, better blood sugar levels, and longer life.
Research shows that compassion-based interventions strengthen the vagus nerve, leading to improved stress responses and better emotional regulation.
Research shows that “self-affirmation”—reflecting on the things one values prior to receiving information— activates the reward centers of the brain allowing people to be more open and achieve their goals.
At OpenHI, we know emotional intelligence is not just important — it’s essential.
Emotional intelligence (EI)—the ability to recognize, understand, and manage emotions—is foundational to every aspect of human development, yet it has been largely absent from traditional education for generations.
While schools have prioritized academics and standardized testing, core skills like empathy, self-regulation, resilience, and healthy communication have gone underdeveloped thereby actually hurting our ability to learn and process information.
This gap has left generations of students without the inner tools needed not only to navigate life’s challenges, build meaningful relationships, or manage mental health, but also process the expansive heaps of information they’re bombarded by in these modern times. This lack of emotional development created the human crisis OpenHi serves to solve.
In a time when emotional wellbeing is deeply tied to learning readiness and long-term success, integrating EI into education is no longer optional—it’s essential.
OpenHI brings emotional intelligence to the forefront, giving students the guidance, language, and daily practice they need to thrive—inside and outside the classroom.
95% of people think they are self-aware, but research shows only 10–15% are.
When we see ourselves clearly, we are more confident and more creative. We make sounder decisions, cultivate stronger relationships, and communicate with ourselves and others more effectively. (Harvard Business Review)

Up-leveling Education—because it’s time.
OpenHI is reimagining and seamlessly integrating emotional intelligence into schools while reversing the ills of the information tech age. Providing the skills to process information, allows for the proper direction of attention and focus. Addressing the root causes of behavioral issues in schools by equipping students with the self-awareness, regulation tools, growth mindset journeys, and life skills they need, students gain the (intrinsic & extrinsic) benefits responding to challenges in constructive ways.
Rather than reacting impulsively out of frustration, fear, or confusion, emotionally intelligent and mature students are more likely to pause, reflect, and make healthier choices.
As students learn to take responsibility for their emotions and communicate effectively, classrooms become calmer, safer, and more conducive to learning—not just for the individual, but for everyone.
The classroom becomes a space to dream, grow, & become.
OpenHI is building AI that grows EI—because the future belongs to those who know themselves and care for others.
Traditional education often focuses on external achievement. OpenHI is building the inner world. Through our AI-powered companion, LuMii, we deliver emotional learning experiences that are personal, creative, and powerful — helping young people build emotional & life mastery from the inside out.
At OpenHI, emotional intelligence isn’t a side lesson. It’s the beating heart of everything we create.
Because when we nurture the inner lives of children, we don’t just shape better students. We shape a happier, healthier world.
“There are a lot of things in life we can’t control. It’s hard, especially when you’re a child, to feel like you have control over anything. Like you can change anything. But you can control your body and you can control your mind. That might not sound like a lot, but it’s very powerful. It can change
everything.”
