About TRIPP: Calm Focus Sleep Ascend
What Is TRIPP
TRIPP is an AI mental wellness app from TRIPP Inc., a Los Angeles company that started with immersive meditation in VR and grew into a multi-device wellness platform. The mobile app handles everyday grounding, focus and wind-down, and it works as a standalone mindfulness app. Supported headsets add visuals you sit inside rather than watch.
The core of the product is Kōkua, an AI wellness companion named after the Hawaiian word for support. You type or talk about how your day is going, and Kōkua answers with a reflection, a short practice or a prompt to try. TRIPP says the model behind it draws on more than 10 million wellness sessions, which is why replies lean toward your current mood instead of generic advice.
The limits matter before you pay. TRIPP is a wellness tool, not a clinical one. It doesn't diagnose anything, keep medical records or stand in for a therapist. Kōkua Calling, the phone version, is in beta and only works in the US and Canada. Ascend, the creator-led immersive collection, runs on Meta Quest headsets only, so Vision Pro owners get a smaller library.
Getting Started
- Download TRIPP on iOS or Android, or open the web checkout if you plan to use it in a headset.
- Create an account and answer the first mood check so Kōkua has something to work from.
- Pick a starting practice: a few minutes of breathwork, a focus session or a sleep track.
- Chat with Kōkua once to see how the reflections feel, then set a weekly goal.
- Add a headset later if you want XR meditation. The same membership covers both.

Key features
Kōkua, the AI Wellness Companion
Kōkua is the part of TRIPP you talk to. Describe a tense morning and it replies with a short reflection, then offers a breathing exercise or a guided practice you can start right there. It also writes shareable reflections you can send to a friend. The replies are built for emotional check-ins, not general research, so don't expect a chatbot that answers trivia.
Guided Meditation and Breathwork
The library covers short check-ins of a few minutes and longer guided sessions, with multi-day challenges for people who want a program rather than a one-off. Breathwork sessions lead you through paced inhales and exhales with audio cues. If you've bounced off silent meditation apps before, the pacing here does most of the work for you.
Sleep Audio and Drift Sessions
Sleep tracks are built to run for up to eight hours, which means you can leave one playing overnight without it stopping at the twenty-minute mark. In a headset, Drift adds dreamlike visuals with adjustable speed, auto-orientation and a fade timer that dims the scene as you settle. Drift sessions are untimed, so nothing kicks you out.
XR Meditation on Quest and Vision Pro
TRIPP XR puts you inside the scene instead of showing it on a flat screen. Supported devices include Meta Quest 2, Quest 3, Quest 3S and Quest Pro, plus Apple Vision Pro. Recline Mode on Quest and view recentering on Vision Pro both make lying-down sessions practical. The Ascend collection, with Cosmic Flow and Journey: An Homage to Ram Dass, is Quest only.
Kōkua Calling by Phone
Dial the Kōkua line and you get a voice conversation with no app, no screen and no login required for the first call. It's meant for the moments when opening an app is one step too many: walking home, lying in bed, sitting in a parking lot. Every user gets 10 free minutes, then top-ups run $5.99 for 30 minutes up to $24.99 for 180.
Mood Checks, Weekly Goals and Aura Points
A mood log takes a few seconds and gives Kōkua context for later conversations. Weekly goals turn that into light structure: log a mood on three days, chat with Kōkua twice, listen to the TRIPP of the Week. Finishing them earns Aura Points, which track participation rather than performance. There are no leaderboards and nothing to lose by skipping a week.
Pros and cons
Pros
- One $49.99 annual membership covers the mobile app and XR experiences, so you don't buy the headset version twice.
- Kōkua turns a vague intention to meditate into a concrete practice in under a minute.
- Sleep audio designed for eight hours suits overnight listening better than most 20-minute tracks.
- The phone line gives you wellness support with no screen, which matters on walks or at 3 a.m.
- Reviews and clinical research use give it more outside validation than most wellness apps.
Cons
- The website sells only the annual plan at $49.99, so there's no monthly option if you want a short trial run.
- Kōkua Calling is US and Canada only and sits in beta, so outside those markets you're paying for features you can't reach.
- TRIPP won't diagnose or treat anything, which rules it out if you need clinical support rather than daily grounding.
- The Ascend immersive collection is limited to Meta Quest, so Vision Pro owners see a smaller XR library.
