The Problem

Quitting cold turkey
rarely works.

Most recovery tools treat everyone the same. Taper is different — it meets you exactly where you are.

🚫

Cold turkey is dangerous

Sudden stopping from alcohol or benzodiazepines can cause seizures and worse. Tapering is the medically recommended approach.

🤐

Shame keeps people silent

Most people never ask for help because they fear judgment. Taper is private, non-judgmental, and available 24/7.

📉

No personalized plan

Generic advice doesn't stick. Your substance, your baseline, your life — your plan should be built around you.

🌑

The nights are the hardest

Cravings don't wait for office hours. You need support at 2am on a Tuesday — not a hotline hold.

How It Works

Simple. Personal.
Effective.

1

Build your taper plan

Tell Taper your substance, your current usage, and your goal. It builds a custom week-by-week reduction schedule — gradual, safe, achievable.

2

Check in daily

Log your usage and mood each day. Takes 30 seconds. Over time, you'll see your progress charted and your streak grow.

3

Talk to Cole anytime

Your AI coach knows your plan, your struggles, and your wins. Whether you're celebrating or craving, Cole is there — sharp, honest, and always in your corner.

4

Reach your goal

Week by week, your numbers come down. Your mood goes up. Your life opens back up. That's the whole point.

I slipped up last night. Had way more than my target.

You told me about it. That alone puts you ahead of where most people are.

One night doesn't erase 11 days of progress. What do you think triggered it?
Stress at work. My boss was on my case all day.

Noted. Stress is your number one trigger — we've seen this pattern. Tonight, before 7pm, I want you to do one thing that isn't work and isn't drinking.

What's it going to be? 👊
