OUR TEENS DRINK UNTIL THEY STUMBLE. VAPE UNTIL THEY'RE BREATHLESS. BET UNTIL THEY'RE BROKE. It's what Teen Addiction looks like.

TeenBack replaces digital triggers with digital truths.


We’ve taken the science of psychiatry, the empathy of mentorship, the honesty of counseling, the moxy of mentorship the fortitude of coaching, and the trust of friendship and built it into our AI models to reach teens caught in today’s frenzy of social addictions usually caused by digital consumption.


Each text is crafted singularly for the teen in need; personalized by age, time, risk and addiction. Every message sounds like what it truly is: a lifeline, words of encouragement, a brighter tomorrow. What teens lose on other social platforms ; confidence, hope and connection and we give back to them on ours.


We send messages every hour, every day, 24/7/365, offering guidance in the same space where temptation lives...to the teen's smartphone.

teen addiction IS NOT benigne, it's a sociatol malignancy.

Across every border, the story is the same: addiction is stealing the next generation.
More than one in three teens worldwide reports gambling, vaping, or drinking before age sixteen.


In the last five years, digital gambling has tripled. Teen vaping has exploded more than 400 percent since 2018. And drinking, once brushed off as part of growing up, now shows direct links to depression, anxiety, and suicide at record levels.

This is not a phase. It is a global crisis shaped by social media, nonstop marketing, and peer pressure that never logs off. Addiction has become chemical, social, and digital all at the same time.


TeenBack steps into that reality with intention. We fight back digitally, smarter and stronger, through a behaviorally intelligent messaging system that reaches teens at the exact moments they need support. We use the same device that fuels addiction to interrupt it, guide it, and help reverse it. It is prevention delivered on the hour, every hour, because that is what this moment demands.

One Solution Delivered to One Device.

Micro-Interventions.

Micro-Interventions.

Micro-Interventions.

Today’s teens are getting bombarded  every hour, on the hour.

Hundreds of gambling apps available in seconds. Real and false friends on TikTok, IG, and Meta turning drinking, vaping, and betting into social currency. Social platforms that reward risk. Feeds that normalize it. Algorithms that push it. Addiction isn’t hiding anymore, it’s being promoted, shared, posted, and celebrated.

Macro-Progress.

It’s preventative guidance delivered on the hour, every hour. No apps. No judgment.  Just consistent, real-time support .

When TeenBack Works...

When TeenBack Works...

Addiction starts where teens already live, on their phones. That’s where pressure shows up, where ads hit, where risky habits form long before adults notice. TeenBack steps into that space with support that’s calm, personal, and built to cut through digital noise.

• Counters cravings during the exact windows they spike
• Pushes back against social platforms that normalize risk
• Matches the pace of the digital world instead of lagging behind

When TeenBack Works...

When TeenBack works, the win is shared. The teen steadies, the family breathes, and the school succeeds. Real prevention shows up before the crisis, shaping choices, protecting futures, and giving every child a better shot at growing into who they’re meant to be.

• Builds healthier patterns one hour at a time
• Reduces risk during the moments teens struggle most
• Strengthens the support system around every student

The information we collect is the information we protect.

What we collect...

How parent enrollment works.

Why we collect it...

To deliver personalized, age-appropriate, hourly support, TeenBack asks for four pieces of information. Nothing more. Nothing a teen wouldn’t feel comfortable sharing. Nothing that can be used to trace addiction history or personal struggles.

We collect:

  • Name
  • Birthday 
  • Cell Number 
  • Email Address

We also ask (never require) for some interests, the parts of a teen’s life that addiction tends to pull them away from. 

  • Interests and hobbies
  • Clubs, sports, arts, or activities
  • Favorite subjects
  • Personal goals or passions

Why we collect it...

How parent enrollment works.

Why we collect it...

A system built on trust needs the smallest footprint possible. The information we gather allows us to:

  • Personalize each message so it feels like it’s written to the teen, not at them.
  • Match the language and timing to developmental age.
  • Deliver support during high-risk hours without requiring an app.
  • Meet COPPA, FERPA, and youth-protection standards. 
  • Provide parents and schools with safe, anonymous oversight tools.
     

Everything collected serves one purpose: getting the right message to the right teen at the right moment.

How parent enrollment works.

How parent enrollment works.

How parent enrollment works.

When parents enroll their teen, they provide the four fields above, confirm age, and give consent. Once active, parents have two choices:

  • Weekly Summary
    A discreet report showing patterns (“your teen used PAUSE three times this week”), not transcripts.
  • Mirrored Messages (Optional)
    Parents who want full visibility can choose to receive a copy of every text sent to their teen.
  • Many families need support for more than one child. When a parent enrolls a second teen, they receive 50% off each additional enrollment.

What Data we Collect and Why.

 TeenBack only asks for four things: a name, a birthday, a cell number, and an email. That’s it. Just the basics needed to deliver personalized, age-appropriate support at the exact moment a teen needs it. No browsing history. No app activity. No tracking.


And while those four fields help us send the right message to the right teen at the right hour, that’s where the required information ends.

We also invite teens (or parents) to share a little more about who they are. We learn of their interests, sports, clubs, music, hobbies, anything that makes them feel like themselves. Not for advertising. Not for profiling. But because addiction disconnects teens from the strongest parts of their identity, and our messages work better when they reconnect a teen to something real.


Everything we collect serves one purpose: to send a message that lands, hits the moment, and helps the teen steady themselves when they need it most. We don’t track behavior. We don’t store addiction history. We don’t sell or share data.

Safety & Science.

TeenBack is built on clinically aligned principles: small, frequent interventions are far more effective at disrupting harmful behavior than long, sporadic messages. Our system uses evidence-based timing models, developmental psychology, and strict safety protocols to craft messages that support teens without crossing into therapy. Every safeguard is intentional from parental consent, to data minimization, to guardrails that ensure every message is appropriate, age-aligned, and emotionally safe. We don’t guess. We don’t improvise. We operate within the science.

TeenBack accelerates the old “one day at a time” mantra to “one hour at a time” because today’s digital reality demands a new narrative, a quicker response. Our kids live inside an always-on digital world where apps and platforms fire off pings nonstop: betting parlays pushed to their phones, so-called “friends” on Meta hyping the latest vape flavors, and “cool” teens drinking to oblivion looking for "likes" on Tik Tok. In that world, “one day at a time” just isn’t fast enough. TeenBack is the only digital platform built to match that pace delivering highly targeted, supportive texts one hour at a time, 24/7, right where kids already are: on their phones. One text at a time. One hour at a time. Let’s get every TeenBack.

Jordan's Addiction: Gambling.

Jordan's Addiction: Gambling  

Jordan's Hobbies/Interests: Soccer + Debate + Class President


Jordan isn’t just “a teen with a gambling risk. He’s a 16-year-old soccer player, a debate leader, a class president, and a kid with real goals shaping his future. TeenBack’s AI doesn’t send generic reminders,  it studies the rhythms of his day, the pressures tied to his age, and the things he actually cares about. Then it weaves those threads directly into every text.


By referencing the parts of Jordan that addiction tries to steal from his discipline from soccer, his clarity from debate and his leadership in school. Each message interrupts negative impulse loops and pulls forward his strengths, identity, and potential. Every hour becomes a gentle recalibration: steering him away from the urge, and back toward the kid he already is at his best. It’s not random texting. It’s structured, behaviorally informed micro-intervention every hour on the hour.

Proactive Texts Delivered on The Phone, on The Hour.

Why TeenBack Works:

Our texts aren’t “quotes” or scripts — they’re micro-interventions, each one shaped by a blend of behavioral science, timing, and personalization. Every text you’re about to see is built using the same core engine that powers TeenBack at scale:

  • Age-mapping: Teens 13–19 process risk, emotion, and reward differently. Each message adjusts tone, pacing, and cognitive load to match that developmental stage.
  • Hobby + identity cues: Sports, music, art, gaming, clubs — these act as anchors that redirect a teen’s attention back to things that build identity instead of erosion it.
  • Risk-window timing: The system predicts when a teen is most vulnerable (after school, late night, social events, emotional dips) and targets messages for those precise hours.
  • Addiction-specific framing: Gambling, vaping, and drinking each have different emotional “hooks.” The language, metaphors, and guidance shift to meet the specific behavior.
  •  Cognitive interruption: Each message is written to break the micro-moment between urge and action, giving the teen just enough space to choose differently.
  • Emotional regulation baked in: Grounding statements, self-efficacy cues, future-self references, and behavioral nudges are layered in — but always lightly, so it feels human, not clinical.

What Teens Receive:

Every text is a targeted micro-intervention built around timing, age, gender and behavior patterns. Consistent exposure to these brief prompts helps build macro-progress, increased awareness, slowed reactions, and a growing ability to pause before acting.

Why Adults Trust It:

Parents and schools get something they’ve never had before: real-time support delivered directly into a teen’s daily rhythms. These micro-interventions lead to calmer days, less chaos and teens gaining the skills to manage pressure independently.

Commonly Used Funding Chanels:

  • Student Mental-Health & Wellness Funding: Supports anxiety reduction, emotional regulation, and early-intervention systems.


  • Substance-Use Prevention & Education Grants: Covers tools addressing vaping, drinking, and emerging behavioral addictions.
     
  • Digital Citizenship & Online-Safety Funds: Applies to platforms that reduce risk in online environments where harm originates.
     
  • Behavioral-Risk Monitoring & Intervention Budgets: Fits within SEL, MTSS Tier 1 and Tier 2 support frameworks.
     
  • School Climate & Safety Improvement Grants: Used for districtwide prevention systems that improve well-being across campuses.
     
  • Federal/State Innovation & EdTech Modernization Funds: Qualifies as a technology-driven early-intervention model.
     
  • Health Department Partnerships: In many regions, public-health agencies co-fund youth addiction-prevention tools.

Grant-Funded Support for Every Student, Every Hour.

Most districts can adopt TeenBack without touching their general operating budgets. Because we function as a digital mental-health, early-intervention, and safety-risk–reduction platform, schools can use existing grant streams and categorical funds to cover the full cost. TeenBack requires no staffing, no instruction time, and no hardware — making it one of the easiest preventive tools to implement at scale.
