What HiBoop is & how it works

What HiBoop is, who can use it, how it works and what our name means.

HiBoop simplifies the complexity of behavioural health intake by using a smart, guided flow that matches assessments to the individual's needs. The platform helps clinicians focus more on care and less on paperwork.

Step-by-step process

  1. Start with a Prescreen Individuals complete a short, structured intake that helps identify areas of concern (e.g., anxiety, depression, trauma).
  2. Assessment Matching Based on the prescreen results, HiBoop recommends a personalized bundle of validated assessments.
  3. Clinician Review Clinicians decide which assessments to add, and review any related conditions HiBoop finds.
  4. Patient Completion Assessments are sent via secure link or completed in session. Reminders and status updates are built in.
  5. Scoring & Reports on Submission Results are scored on submission. Dynamic reports show trends over time and can be used for intake, progress updates, and discharge summaries.

Technical Details

The Prescreen doesn’t map one-to-one to specific full assessments. Instead, each question in HiBoop, whether part of the Prescreen or a later form, is linked to one or more clinical conditions. When a patient responds, their answers contribute weight toward the likelihood that a given condition may be relevant for further evaluation.

HiBoop then strengthens these predictions by factoring in established relationships between conditions. For example, if symptoms strongly associated with one condition appear, related conditions may also gain a smaller amount of weight.

Once the system identifies the conditions most likely to be clinically relevant, it recommends the Preferred Assessments associated with each condition. These are the validated tools your clinic has identified as the most appropriate next step for screening or diagnostic clarification.

In short:

  • Each question contributes evidence toward one or more conditions
  • Conditions accumulate weight based on patient responses and clinical comorbidity patterns
  • The system recommends the most clinically suitable full assessments based on these predictions

This approach gives clinicians a fast, data-informed starting point for deciding what to evaluate next while preserving flexibility and clinical judgment.

What does our name mean?

HiBoop may sound playful, and that’s entirely the point.

The name was inspired by our founder, Jason, who affectionately calls his daughter “boop.” It's a personal term of endearment and a nod to the gentle “boop” on the nose many of us know and love.

Why did we choose this name

Mental health assessments can feel intimidating or clinical. At HiBoop, we believe that tools designed to support mental health should be:

  • Warm and human-centred
  • Approachable for all ages
  • Gentle, not judgmental

Our name reflects our mission: to make mental health assessments feel safe, compassionate, and accessible, from the very first click.
