A warm friend calls Grandma to keep her company, and brings the whole family together with it.

Yes, and she hears it from you, not from a stranger on the phone. Before her first call you tell her yourself, with the words we hand you, and from then on, any time she asks, it says plainly that it is a computer. What it never does is pretend to be a person. She's a member, not a subject.

With a safeword your family chooses. Her friend says it at the start of every call. During the onboarding call we practice it with her, together, and make sure it's written down by the phone. It also quietly teaches the most protective habit an older adult can have: no safeword, no trust, no matter how friendly the voice.

Yes, any time, day or night. Her friend has a name, and we save it as a contact in her phone (or written by the landline) so she can call whenever she wants company. Inbound calling is an add-on with its own price, shown clearly before you turn it on.

Her friend adapts, louder, slower, patient with every "say that again," as many times as it takes. And if we notice a hearing pattern across several calls, we tell you what we're seeing so you can look into it with her doctor.

Honestly: not yet. Our friend isn't reliable enough with heavily impaired speech today, and we'd rather tell you than take your money. We're working on it.

Quiet parents need a different first mile. The more you tell us about him, his teams, his trade, his stories, the better his friend breaks the ice with topics he actually cares about, and questions that can't be answered in one word. Then watch his first reports: if he isn't warming up, talk with him about what this is for. And if he still doesn't enjoy it, we'll recommend you cancel, this works when he likes the calls, not when he endures them.

It's trained to do the opposite. It never confirms things that aren't real, it redirects gently, the way dementia-care nurses are taught to, and if confusion comes up, you hear about it the same day. It's a sensor for her clarity, not an echo chamber.

Early forgetfulness, yes, that's exactly when tracking matters most. Moderate or advanced dementia, honestly, no: phone conversation stops being a comfort at that stage, and we'd rather tell you than take your money.

English and Spanish at launch, including the way she speaks it. More coming with our first families.

Not yet, and so many families have asked that international calling over WhatsApp, across all of Latin America, is next on our list.

You choose her call times. If she doesn't answer, we try again 5 minutes later, then 10, then 20. If the call still goes unanswered, you get a calm text the same day, a missed call is usually a nap or a busy afternoon, and we write it that way. If more than two calls in a row go unanswered, we flag the pattern to you clearly, and it shows in her report.

You get a same-day text with a plain next step, and if it's an emergency, we don't text, we call you. If we can't reach you, we call the second person on your list. The full picture is always in the app. We're her family's sensor, not her doctor.

Yes, it asks her directly, and which ones, woven into the conversation like a friend would ask. What she says is in your report the same day. We ask and we report; we never diagnose or administer.

Yes. Her friend learns her normal, her energy, her warmth, how she tells her stories, and notices when something shifts. A hard week shows up in your report as clearly as a rough night's sleep.

You decide. As the account owner you choose who receives the after-call texts and who can open the full dashboard. Give everyone the same view, or keep some things closer, it's yours to set, and to change.

Her stories are hers. When something beautiful comes up, her friend asks in the moment, "That's a lovely story. May I save it for your family?", and what she declines stays private. Safety is different: safety alerts always reach the contacts you chose. Her stories are hers; her safety is shared.

There's one card on the account for now. Most families split it the old-fashioned way: one person pays, everyone else sends their share, five siblings on a $59 plan is about $12 each.

Yes, there's a discount for a second parent or more, applied as you choose their plans. Each of them gets their own friend, their own reports, and their own memories.

Caregivers are the least-checked-on people in a family, and yes, this is for her too. Her friend asks about her: her sleep, her load, her own stories, not only the person she cares for. Each friend is dedicated to one person, so covering both of them means two plans, with the family discount above.

Saving her stories is the voice archive, $6/mo. Once a story is saved, your family owns it. Every saved story lives in your dashboard to play or download any time while your account is open, and you can delete any recording, permanently, yourselves. If you ever close the account, you have 30 days to download everything before we delete it. We don't use her voice or her calls to train anything, and if that ever changed, you would hear it from us first, plainly.

If we ever had to close, we would tell you and make sure your family has downloaded every recording first. Her voice leaves with your family, not with us.

Her recordings are yours to download for 30 days after you cancel. Her friend's working memory lives the same 30 days: come back inside that window and her friend picks up right where they left off. After that we delete it, for her privacy, and a return starts fresh.
