Kooth – executive interview

In this interview, Kooth’s CEO Kate Newhouse and CFO Sanjay Jawa discuss progress in 2025, a year of consolidation in which the company demonstrated the scalability and effectiveness of its digital mental health model across the UK and US. Kate highlights Soluna’s progress in California, where it serves six million 13–25-year-olds, has reached users earlier in their healthcare journey and has been independently evaluated by Northwestern University. She also discusses Kooth’s state alliance model, with new activity in New Jersey and Michigan, and the strategic migration of UK services onto Soluna. The interview covers how Kooth is using clinically governed AI, supported by proprietary data, to improve engagement, moderation, practitioner training and outcomes while keeping human interaction at the centre of care. Sanjay outlines the financial profile, including resilient gross margins, strong cash generation, a debt-free balance sheet and the potential for operating leverage as new US contracts scale.
