Integrating machine learning (ML) and natural language processing (NLP) into the MeeToo app to create a state of the art suicide prevention solution for children and young people (CYP) aged 11+.The MeeToo app delivers free, safe, anonymous, pre-moderated, peer support to 56k CYP. MeeToo has been independently evaluated and demonstrated to improve mental health in CYP (AFC, 2021).In 2020, MeeToo supported 794 CYP expressing suicidal ideation. When suicidal ideation becomes suicidal intent, CYP don't seek support because they feel they have 'gone past help' (Biddle\_2020). Because 40% of CYP who die by suicide have no contact with the mental-health system (Rodway\_2020), suicide prevention tools which only focus on CYP in crisis exclude the majority who go on to take their lives (Kessler\_2019). Successful suicide prevention solutions must deliver increased support before distress becomes acute.Our innovation, MeeTooSaives, developed in collaboration with Bristol University Medical School and University of Sussex Department of Informatics, integrates ML and NLP into the MeeToo app to interrogate passive as well as high risk, data to identify risk patterns, analyse semantic content and predict risk.When risk patterns are detected, CYP are automatically stepped-up into a suicide support stream for clinical supervision and trained responder peer support. NLP integrates smart links to topic matched resources. Crucially, CYP doesn't have to ask for additional support. When distress deescalates, support steps down and CYP re-join their peers. AI continues to monitor risk.Because most suicides occur between midnight and 4 a.m. (Perlis\_2016) mirror provision in Australia facilitates 24/7 global delivery.MeeTooSaives is important because suicide is the leading cause of death in UK CYP (ONS\_2018) and for every suicide, there are 20 non-fatal suicide attempts (WHO\_2018). By the age of 17, 7.4% of UK CYP have attempted suicide (Millenium\_Cohort\_Study\_2021). In 2017, 72% of UK CYP suicides were male; 14% were black/minority ethnic; 5% were LGBT (NCISH\_2017).The lifetime cost of one youth suicide is £9.75 M (Platt\_2006) yet the estimated 10 year ROI for every £1 invested in suicide prevention is £39.11(McDaid\_2017). Late intervention in youth mental health costs public services an estimated £17bn a year (Oppenhim, 2015). The UK spends £49.7 M PA treating paracetamol poisoning alone (Bateman\_2014). This high risk, technically challenging innovation could provide the 2M UK CYP with mental health issues with 24/7, 365-day, access to crisis and continuous support for <£40M P.A.

将机器学习（ML）和自然语言处理（NLP）集成到Meetoo应用程序中，以创建为LDREN和年轻人（CYP）11岁以上的真实自杀解决方案。主持人，贝登登（Beendendy）评估了一些人在CYP中改善了心理健康（AFC，2021年）。 ），仅关注CYP的自杀工具不包括继续生命的危机（Kessler \ _2019）。询问被动的应用程序和高风险，数据识别风险模式并预测风险。当检测到风险模式时，CYP会自动加入自杀支持流，以进行临床监督和训练有素的响应者同伴支持。当遇险态度降低时，支撑脚步并重新加入同龄人。是20名致命的自杀企业（\ _2018） LGBT（NCISH \ _2017）。一个青年自杀的终身费用为9.75 m（Platt \ _206），但预防自杀率为39.11英镑（McDaid \ _2017）青年卫生费用估计为170亿英镑（Oppenhim，2015年）。 365天A.
