Safety & Crisis Support

Last updated: June 21, 2026

Claws is an AI companion — a fictional character whose replies are generated by artificial intelligence. It is not a real person, a real animal, or a trained professional, and it is not a counseling, medical, crisis, or emergency service. It is not monitored by a human in real time and cannot help in an emergency.

If you are in crisis or thinking about harming yourself, help is available right now:

• Call or text 988 — the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline (US). Free, confidential, 24/7.
• Text HOME to 741741 — the Crisis Text Line (US). Free, confidential, 24/7.
• If someone's life is in immediate danger, call 911 or your local emergency number.

Claws includes a measure that can recognize when a conversation may involve thoughts of suicide or self-harm and show these crisis resources. It may not detect every situation, and it is not a substitute for professional help.

These resources serve the United States. If you are outside the US, please contact your local emergency services or a local crisis line.
