Who Is Trisha Prabhu?
Trisha Prabhu is the Founder and CEO of ReThink™. Trisha's journey began at 13, when she read the tragic story of a young girl who had died by suicide after being cyber-bullied. As a former victim of online harassment, Trisha knew she had a choice - to be a bystander to the silent pandemic of online hate, or an Upstander. Trisha stood up - and took on the cause to find an effective, proactive solution to online hate.

ReThink's Game-Changing Solution
• Operating as a keyboard on your mobile device, ReThink™ works across all apps - from text to mail - to detect offensive messages in real-time, and give you a chance to reconsider sending them.
• ReThink™ works as a behavioral "nudge" that helps curb impulsive behavior, and ensures you don't post or send something you later regret.
• Our research (validated by Google, MIT, and the White House) finds that with this gentle break, over 93% of the time, teens decide not to post offensive messages.
• Compared to conventional solutions, which burden victims of cyberbullying with the responsibility of blocking the cyberbully or reporting the issue, ReThink™ is proactive, stopping cyberbullying at the source, before the damage is done.
• With ReThink™, parents and educators get much-needed peace of mind, and help the young people in their lives build critical thinking skills.
• With its latest release, ReThink™ is now available in English, Spanish, Hindi, French, Italian, and Greek.

Why ReThink™?
The adolescent brain has been likened to a "car with no brakes" - in other words, young people often act on impulse - and the digital world is no exception. In the heat of the moment, many tweens and teens say hurtful things online - and cause immense mental harm to recipients. Moreover, many teens don't realize that their digital footprint is permanent - once a message is sent, they can't really "delete" it.

The rigorous scientific research behind ReThink™ finds that when faced with the ReThink™ alert, over 93% of the time, teens change their mind, and decide not to post the original offensive message. Indeed, with ReThink™, overall, the willingness to post offensive messages online drops from 71% to 4%. ReThink, then, helps young people think through their digital decisions - and do the right thing.
For our work and impact, ReThink™ has been honored with numerous awards and featured on renowned stages and forums.

Ratings and reviews

has potential. I like the word pop up confirmation when you get autocorrected by the keyboard. I can't find any Swype feature settings, and it feels like the warnings are a bit random? I don't like that the emoji button adds a :D face from 1 tapbrather than open a menu. Swaping from numbers to letters is frustrating so I find myself skipping punctuation all together. I can barely text without Swype so sadly i have to pass this up in favor of functionality. but otherwise it's alright .

I absolutely love this. Even for me , I use slang words to much and it's helping me change into a better person. I text to quick as well and now I can actually take time to think before I speak a little more. I love the concept of this and I love the fact this helps stop cyber bullying . For such a young age she created the absolute most fantastic app ever.

It's actually pretty amazing but there are a few flaws/limitations that I'd like to point out: 1.No swipe gesture support 2.Keyboard is very uncomfortable 3. It made me rethink when I typed in 'you are not ugly' and that shouldn't happen
