Problem
Families often struggle to monitor the well-being of elderly relatives living independently, leading to concerns about their safety and the timing of potential assisted living transitions. The high cost of assisted living facilities can also create a financial burden if the transition occurs prematurely.
Solution

The system learns typical behavior and alerts caregivers to deviations that may indicate a problem. This data-driven approach helps families make informed decisions about when and if a move to assisted living is necessary, potentially saving significant costs associated with premature transitions. The system integrates with biometric devices and provides a unified app for activity and biometric data.
