About Us
For many, the path after trauma feels uncertain. We created Pcl-5.com to be a safe, confidential starting point for understanding, offering clarity when it's needed most.
The Genesis of Pcl-5.com
We saw a need for a safe, accessible first step for individuals to understand their experiences after trauma. Pcl-5.com was created to be that private, reliable tool, providing not just a score based on the official PCL-5 standard, but meaningful, AI-driven insights to empower the journey toward professional help and healing.
We recognized a critical gap: the need for a private, reliable, and accessible way for people to understand their post-traumatic stress symptoms without immediate clinical barriers. The idea for Pcl-5.com was born.
Pcl-5.com goes live, focusing on a seamless user experience, clear language, and the core function of delivering an accurate, free PCL-5 score based on official DSM-5 criteria.
We introduced our unique, optional AI-driven reports, transforming a simple score into a personalized analysis of strengths, challenges, and actionable next steps—deepening understanding, not providing a diagnosis.
Our vision is to expand our multi-language support, enhance accessibility features, and continue refining our insights to empower even more users globally on their path to well-being.
