Etta: Daily Elder Care Calls

Etta calls your parent, not you — warm, friendly check-ins on the phone they already have. Choose a daily schedule, or morning and evening with Care+, while plan minutes remain. No app for them to install, nothing to wear or charge; a landline or flip phone works. Etta talks the way a person does: she answers in about a second, lets your parent finish their thought, and remembers what they told her last time — "Did the plumber ever turn up?" It all runs on their permission. You share a secure, single-use link; your parent reads what Etta is, how calls and their data work, and chooses for themselves. No outbound call happens before they grant permission. If they later tell Etta to stop, calls stop. After a substantive completed call, you get a little note: how they sounded, what they talked about, and the small things worth knowing — in their own words. BETWEEN YOUR CALLS, NEVER INSTEAD OF THEM You call when you can. Etta fills the quiet days in between with the routine you and your parent choose, so someone friendly checks in and you can follow up on what matters. THEIR OWN WORDS, NOT A FORM • After substantive completed calls: a short recap with the lines that matter, quoted word for word from the call • A gentle mood trendline and a "This week" summary • A note if a call goes unanswered or something deserves a closer look • If your parent mentions a stranger pressing for money or gift cards, Etta says plainly it sounds like a scam, suggests they check with you first, and flags it for you. She never asks for money or personal details. • Etta remembers — bridge night, the neighbor's name, how they take their tea BUILT ON PERMISSION • Your parent completes their own permission link before Etta places any outbound call • A refusal, withdrawal, or phone-number change requires a new link and a fresh grant before calls restart • Etta introduces herself as an AI on every call, and your parent can tell her to stop • You can record a short greeting in your own voice so every call opens with someone they know ONE PLAN, THE WHOLE FAMILY Share a read-only care-circle link so siblings see recent highlights in your parent's own words and an overall mood — only you pay, the whole family sees it. No extra seats, ever. PLANS • Free — create and share the secure permission link; no call is placed until your parent grants access • Care (monthly or annual) — one scheduled check-in a day while minutes remain, with recaps, concern flags, and 90 US/Canada or 48 Australia call minutes a month • Care+ (monthly) — morning and evening check-ins while minutes remain, 200 US/Canada or 100 Australia call minutes a month, plus Ask Etta about how they're doing Calls run up to 5 minutes; a 3-minute call every day uses about 90 minutes a month. Payment is charged to your Apple Account. Subscriptions auto-renew each billing period unless canceled at least 24 hours before it ends; manage or cancel in Settings. The App Store shows your local price before purchase. HONEST BY DESIGN Etta is an AI companion and never pretends otherwise — she says so on every call, and every summary in the app is labeled as AI-generated. Only after the recipient gives permission: a telephone carrier connects the calls, third-party AI services listen and speak as Etta (with backup third-party AI speech services), and a third-party AI service writes recaps from the transcript text and answers Ask Etta questions. Routine call audio is not saved as a recording. Your family's conversations are never sold or used for advertising. Etta is not an emergency service and does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or emergency response. She doesn't replace doctors, caregivers, or — most of all — you. If you believe someone is in danger, call 911 in the US and Canada, or 000 in Australia. If someone is in crisis: in Australia, Lifeline on 13 11 14; in the US and Canada, call or text 988.
