Mantra Health

What Mantra Health does

Mantra Health is a private digital mental healthcare company founded in 2018 and headquartered in New York that delivers telehealth-based mental health services exclusively to U.S. higher education institutions and their students. The company operates a B2B SaaS-style model, contracting with colleges and universities to provide access to a tiered care platform called Whole Campus Care, which spans coaching, peer support, virtual therapy, psychiatry, ADHD assessment, and 24/7 crisis intervention. Clinical services are delivered through a contracted provider network operated by Wellround Provider Group, while Mantra provides the technology platform, care coordination, and institutional integrations.

The technology stack centers on the Mantra Care Hub, a centralized student-facing portal that routes users across the stepped care continuum. Proprietary components include Beacon (a persistence intelligence platform that applies predictive modeling and population analytics to identify at-risk students), the Mantra Collaboration Portal (a care coordination tool enabling campus staff to refer students and coordinate with Mantra providers), and ADHD Collaborative Care (a multi-modal assessment pathway incorporating FDA-cleared objective testing). The platform integrates with Togetherall for peer support, Single Stop for basic-needs services, and EAB's Navigate360 student success CRM. Mantra holds SOC 2 Type II, SOC 1, HIPAA, and TX-RAMP certifications.

Mantra generates revenue primarily through institutional subscription contracts with colleges and universities, with pricing structured as quote-based annual or multi-year deals tailored to institution size and selected service tiers. The company supplements this with direct-pay consumer access for individuals outside its school-sponsored base. The company is venture-backed, having raised approximately $34 million across early rounds and a $22 million Series A (January 2022) with a $5 million extension (March 2023), led by VMG Partners. As of February 2026, Mantra reports deployments at 150+ colleges and universities serving over 1.3 million students.
