Founded in 2015, Riliv has developed an app that offers online counseling and meditation services for people dealing with mental health issues. The startup has also partnered with companies that want to provide such services for their employees.

Riliv was founded by brothers Audrey Maximillian Herli and Audy Christopher Herli.

In a statement, the company said that its users grew by almost 5x amid the pandemic as people reported feeling anxious and insecure. With the fresh funding, Riliv plans to expand its services to a wider range of sectors.
