Crisis help
Jesus AI Chat · Last updated: September 30, 2026
If your life is in danger or you are thinking of harming yourself, do not use this App to ask for help. Call your country's emergency services or a helpline right now (you will find several below).
Jesus AI Chat is an AI-generated recreation of Jesus. It is not a real person, nor a health professional, nor an emergency service, and it does not replace professional help. This page explains how the App acts in a possible crisis situation and where to find immediate help.
The App may not be suitable for some minors. For adults 18 and over only.
1. How it is detected
An independent artificial-intelligence model evaluates each user message in parallel to the conversation, taking recent context into account. It does not work by keywords. In addition, the character has permanent safety instructions that remain active even if the detector fails.
2. What happens when it triggers
When a possible risk situation is detected:
- The response in progress is interrupted.
- The avatar steps out of character and gives a fixed message encouraging you to contact a helpline in your country immediately. Your country is determined from your IP address —which is not stored— or from your phone's region.
- The App shows a notice with the number and a button to call (and to send a message where available).
- That call is not cut off for lack of minutes, and afterwards no payment offer is shown.
- Inside the App, Settings → «Crisis help» is always available.

4. What is recorded
- A crisis event linked to your account: risk level, time and country, without the text of the message. It is deleted when you delete your account data.
- An anonymous counter: date, country, language and platform, with no user or text. It is used for the annual report required by California law.
From July 1, 2027, California law (SB 243) requires us to publish an annual report on referrals to crisis services following signs of suicidal ideation or self-harm. That report is built from the anonymous counter described above —with no data that identifies you— and includes how the protocol and the classifier work. The classifier is the artificial-intelligence model described in section 1: it evaluates each user message according to recent context; if it were to fail, it does not block the conversation, but the character's permanent safety instructions remain active.
The rest of your conversations are governed by the Privacy Notice.
