Austin Taylor
Founder, Cope Compass
Austin is the founder of Cope Compass, a real-time recovery-support platform for people struggling with gambling and other behavioral addictions. He built Cope Compass after years of looking for tools that met people where they were, at 2am, mid-urge, in the gap between a trigger and a bet, and finding nothing. The platform combines a real-time intervention engine with peer support, meetings, and progress tracking. He writes the platform's editorial content with the explicit goal of saying things that someone in the middle of an urge can actually use.
