We believe the greatest frontier in technology is the human inner world.
Powered by AI, guided by Soul.
OpenHI is guided by the conviction that emotional intelligence, self-awareness, and inner resilience are not luxuries—they are necessities for a thriving future.
We believe technology can be designed to support these inner capacities, not undermine them. By integrating psychology, education, and design with ethical innovation, we are creating tools that nurture the soul and grows human connection.
“Incorporating general intelligence, bodily intelligence, emotional intelligence, spiritual intelligence, political intelligence and social intelligence in AI systems are part of the future deep learning research.”

OpenHi springs from a mission to optimize social and emotional well-being in a digital world through the integration of emotional, bodily, & spiritual intelligence into AI-powered platforms—helping humans grow from the inside out.
It’s founded upon the core knowledge that human beings are inherently wired for peace, love, and compassion. These are not simply gifts of our humanity, but skills we can grow and nurture inwardly in service to a healthier, happier world. We know that outer experience is a reflection of our inner realities.
Developing healthier, more harmonized emotional inner landscapes is not a luxury today—it’s essential.
OpenHI’s founder hails from the frontlines of the mental health crisis, and the educator, familial, and marital pains, divisions, and ruptures driven by yesterday’s addictive and divisive tech. Courtney Pierce is a holistic psychologist with 17+ years in private practice with a global clientele, and an additional 30+ years in integrative human development, eastern/western philosophy, meditation, child development, and education.
Her co-founder, Dave Singer, is a seasoned educator with 17+ years in K-12 teaching, 10+ years tech/edtech sales, with master certifications in integrative nutritional and mental health solutions, breathwork, and meditation.
They’re leading an interdisciplinary team comprised of experts in the fields of AI development, neural science, psychology, philosophy, personal growth, and whole child development—positioning OpenHI to lead in building technology that truly supports the whole human being. OpenHI’s beginning in schools where it’s needed most now.
We’re serving to revolutionize the emotional landscape of education.
With rising school violence and a youth mental health crisis driven by yesterday’s tech, OpenHI is building an AI-powered platform that supports both teachers and students to empower and enlighten themselves while reclaiming their joy through increasing emotional confidence, creative security, and effective compassion.
OpenHI seamlessly scales across classrooms, families, communities, and industries—across the globe.
OpenHI’s vital value and purpose is helping students, teachers, and parents establish inner emotional environments from which to more meaningfully engage, communicate, and connect.
OpenHI is compassionately leading the next generation of learners into an age of wisdom, collaboration, and ethical innovation that lifts and benefits the whole of our humanity.

“All my life I used to wonder what I would become when I grew up. Then, about seven years ago, I realized that I was never going to grow up--that growing is an ever-ongoing process.”
