Is This Okay? How Override Labs Built a Safety-First AI Consent Coach for Teen Boys

What if AI could help prevent sexual assault before it happens — without tracking users, judging them, or handing them a verdict? In this episode of Just Now Possible, Teresa Torres talks with Priya Nakra (Founder and Product Lead) and Olivia Rowley (AI Advisor and Board Member) of Override Labs, a nonprofit building technology to prevent gender-based violence. Their flagship product, *Is This Okay?* (ITO), gives teenage boys a private, judgment-free space to reflect on ambiguous sexual scenarios — with AI guidance grounded in clinical research and motivational interviewing. Priya and Olivia share how they built ITO from scratch: scraping Reddit to validate the need, partnering with a licensed therapist to design the eval rubric, and building a risk classification system that runs *before* Claude is ever invoked. Every design decision — from skipping account creation to removing the concept of a "green light" response — was made with one goal: never let the product be used to justify harm. You'll hear how they defined a "South star" instead of a North star, how clinical expertise shaped the AI's tone and structure, and why a nonprofit context unlocks design choices that growth-focused companies simply can't make. It's a masterclass in purpose-built AI product development when the goal isn't scale — it's prevention.
