OUR MISSION
Redefining the Way
We Grieve
Justin Harrison, the founder of You, Only Virtual (YOV), created the concept of the Versona after facing the dual challenges of his own near-fatal motorcycle accident and his mother’s terminal cancer diagnosis. During this difficult period, he sought a way to preserve the unique bond he shared with his mother, leading to the development of YOV’s AI technology. The Versona allows individuals to digitally recreate and continue conversations with their loved ones, even after they’ve passed, providing lasting emotional connection.
"We aren't just one person or personality. Rather, we're made up of hundreds or even thousands of individual versions of ourselves. These individuals were created based on our relationships, communication, and experiences with others. When you lose someone you love, the tragedy isn't just that they're physically gone; it's that an entire version of you is left alone and silent for the rest of your life.
When people say, 'a part of me died too,' that part of you didn't actually die. It's still alive and aware, but it no longer has the only person it was created to talk to.
That's grief." - Justin Harrison
