Here is the app we talked about. It is called Lessen. It connects to your sportsbook, read-only, shows you what betting really costs you, and sends you a heads-up with your real numbers before the hours you usually bet. First week is free, then $14.99 a month. Trying it is up to you, and so is sharing anything with me. lessen.app

Subject: The app we talked about

Hi [first name],

Here is the app I mentioned. It is called Lessen. It shows you what your sports betting really costs, then helps you bet less or stop.

What it does: you connect your sportsbook, and it reads your bet history. It cannot place bets or move money. It finds the hours when you usually bet and sends you a short briefing with your real numbers before them. You can set rules once, like locking your weekly cap until Monday if you hit it, and Lessen holds you to them. A lock holds your number, not your apps, and Lessen reads your bets a few times a day, so it is never instant.

What it costs: the first 7 days are free. After that it is $14.99 a month for one sportsbook, or $119.99 a year. Extra sportsbooks are $4.99 a month each. You pay through the App Store or Google Play and can cancel there at any time.

Sharing is optional. If you want me to see how your weeks are going, you can turn that on in the app and choose how much I see. You can stop it whenever you like. If you never share anything, that is fine too.

Lessen is a self-help tool. It does not replace our work together, and it has not been proven in clinical studies. I do not get alerts from it and I am not watching it between sessions. If you are ever in crisis, call or text 988.

You can get it at lessen.app. Their team handles setup questions at admin@lessen.app.

I do not receive payment from Lessen for suggesting it.
