Hello HolistaCare team, thank you for taking the time to speak with us. To begin, what are you building at Maxxpace Solutions, and what real-world problem are you trying to solve in mental health and well-being?
At Maxxpace Solutions, we are building HolistaCare, a digital wellness platform focused on preventive mental well-being, not clinical treatment.
The real-world problem we see is that many people struggle with stress, low mood, burnout, or lack of balance, but don’t have access to timely, personalized, or practical support. Traditional help is often expensive, fragmented, or reactive. HolistaCare aims to fill this gap by helping people understand their mental well-being in the context of their everyday lifestyle and guiding them toward small, meaningful improvements.

Many people feel overwhelmed by scattered advice and generic wellness content. What made you believe a more holistic, integrated solution is needed?
Most wellness content today lives in silos: one app for sleep, another for exercise, another for mindfulness. In real life, however, mental well-being is shaped by how these factors interact. Poor sleep affects mood, stress influences eating habits, and lack of movement impacts emotional resilience.
We believe people don’t need more information — they need clarity and integration. A holistic view helps users see patterns across their lifestyle instead of chasing isolated tips that don’t stick.‍

Your platform uses AI expert systems and personalized recommendations. How do you turn someone’s inputs into guidance that feels truly relevant to their life?
HolistaCare combines self-reported inputs with lifestyle data and structured assessments across multiple dimensions, such as sleep quality, daily routines, stress patterns, and emotional well-being.
Our AI expert systems synthesize this information and translate it into practical, human-readable guidance— not medical language, not abstract theory. The focus is on realistic suggestions that fit a person’s daily context, whether that means adjusting evening routines, improving recovery habits, or introducing simple mental exercises at the right time.

A lot of tools focus on symptoms. How does HolistaCare help users understand and address potential root causes over time?
Rather than labeling or diagnosing, HolistaCare encourages reflection and awareness over time. By tracking trends and patterns, users begin to see how certain habits influence their mental state.
For example, instead of just noting “low energy,” the platform helps users recognize connections between late sleep, irregular meals, and increased stress. This long-term perspective empowers people to make sustainable changes rather than short-term fixes.

Mental health is sensitive. How do you approach trust, safety, and privacy so users feel comfortable sharing information and following recommendations?
Trust is fundamental for us. HolistaCare is designed with privacy-first principles, transparent data usage, and clear boundaries between wellness support and clinical care.
We avoid medical claims, ensure data is handled securely, and give users control over what they share. Just as importantly, our tone is supportive, non-judgmental, and empowering — users should feel guided, not evaluated.

What makes HolistaCare different from other mental health or wellness apps on the market?
‍What sets HolistaCare apart is the combination of holistic thinking and structured AI guidance.
We are not a meditation app, not a therapy replacement, and not a fitness tracker. Instead, we position ourselves as a personal mental wellness companion that connects lifestyle, mindset, and daily behavior into one coherent experience. Our focus is prevention, self-awareness, and long-term well-being — especially for people who may not seek traditional mental health services.

How did your team come together, and what personal or professional experiences led you to focus on this topic?
Our team comes from backgrounds in technology, health innovation, and data-driven product development. Across these experiences, we repeatedly saw how mental well-being was treated as an afterthought rather than a foundation.
Personally and professionally, we encountered high-functioning individuals struggling quietly with stress and imbalance. That insight motivated us to create a solution that feels approachable, modern, and integrated into everyday life.

What are your main goals for the Danube Digital Accelerator, and what kind of support would make the biggest difference right now?
Through the Danube Digital Accelerator, our main goals are to refine our product-market fit, validate our value proposition with diverse user groups, and prepare for scalable partnerships.
Support in mentorship, strategic positioning, pilot opportunities, and cross-border ecosystem access would make the biggest difference at this stage. Being part of DDA also helps us sharpen our vision and connect with like-minded innovators shaping the future of digital well-being.

Thank you, HolistaCare team, for the insightful conversation. We’re keeping our fingers crossed as you continue building a preventive, AI-powered wellness platform that brings a holistic, practical approach to mental well-being by connecting everyday lifestyle factors with personalized guidance. We’re also looking forward to your participation at ICT Technology Transfer Days: For a Greener and more Digital Danube Region on 22 January in Prague.
