Alli Home turns a tablet into a companion you can actually use. No menus to learn, no apps to open, no buttons to hunt for. Alli is always on the screen, ready to talk, remind, and keep you connected to the people who matter. VOICE AI ASSISTANT Have a real conversation with Alli using just your voice. Tap the mic and start talking. Ask a question, ask for help, or just chat about the day. Alli listens, answers naturally, and shows expressions on screen, so it feels like talking to someone rather than tapping through an app. MEDICINE AND HEALTH REMINDERS Alli speaks each reminder out loud at the scheduled time, in your language, so it is not just a notification waiting to be noticed. Confirm with your voice or a quick video, and anyone you have chosen to share with can see it was done. Everyone stays informed without anyone having to check in and ask. SCHEDULED ROUTINES Set up things Alli does on its own at a set time: a morning weather and schedule briefing, a daily check-in, a reminder to call someone. Alli starts the conversation, so the day has a rhythm even when no one else is around. VIDEO CALLS Family and friends can call the tablet directly. Calls arrive on the big screen and are answered with a single tap, so seeing a face is never harder than picking up the phone. PHOTO FRAME Photos sent from family phones show up right on the tablet, so grandchildren, trips, and everyday moments are part of the room, not buried in a text thread. ENTERTAINMENT Watch videos, listen to music hands-free, and play word and puzzle games. It is the part of the day that is not about health, and it is there whenever you want it. SMART SCHEDULING The next reminder is always visible at a glance, with a live countdown, and the family's shared to-do list is a tap away. You always know what is coming up, and nothing arrives as a surprise. BUILT FOR THE PERSON USING IT Large text. Loud, clear audio. A face that responds. Available in English, Spanish, and Chinese. Alli is designed for someone who does not want to learn a new device, and for the family who wants to know the day went the way it should.

Imagine the heart-pounding fear: Your aging parent lives alone, and you can't shake the dread of a sudden fall, missed medication, or an emergency going unnoticed. With over 770 million seniors living independently worldwide, this anxiety hits hard and fast—every unchecked "what if" feels like a ticking clock. What if they're in trouble right now? Caretaker is the urgent solution you've been desperate for: a lifesaving app that delivers real-time check-ins, location tracking, customizable alerts, and emergency tools to safeguard your loved ones instantly. No more endless worry—Caretaker gives you control and peace of mind the moment you need it most, whether for parents, kids, grandparents, or your entire family. Key Features: - Urgent Check-Ins to Prevent Crises: Don't wait for disaster—set up personalized SMS, push notifications, or automated voice calls on a schedule. If no response in your set timeframe (like 30 minutes), it escalates to a follow-up call, then blasts an instant alert to you. Flexible modes like Notifications + Voice Calls for quick reassurance, SMS + Notifications + Voice Calls for fail-safe reliability, or simplified SMS Only/Voice Only for accessibility needs. - Real-Time Location Sharing for Immediate Awareness: In a world where accidents happen in seconds, know exactly where your family is with live tracking. If their phone goes offline, pinpoint the last known spot. Simple to activate on smartphones, this feature erases the panic of "Where are they?" and lets you respond swiftly. - Emergency Widget: Lifesaving Access in Critical Moments: When every second counts—like a fall or medical scare—this lock-screen widget kicks in automatically outside home, displaying vital info (emergency contacts, medical notes) without unlocking the phone. Customize visibility for privacy, assign backups, and toggle based on location. It's the rapid-response tool that could save a life before help arrives. - Smart Reminders to Tackle Risks Head-On: Forgotten meds or appointments can spiral into emergencies overnight. Create urgent, repeatable alerts for doctor's visits, medications, birthdays, or more—with custom categories (Medicine, Appointments, Family & Friends). Advanced scheduling (e.g., every 4 hours from 8 AM to 8 PM) and "Important" pinning keep them front and center. Dual notifications ensure you and your loved one stay synced, nipping issues in the bud. - Family Management for Whole-Family Urgency: When worry strikes one, it affects all—add parents, uncles, aunts, grandparents under our affordable Family Package. Share check-ins, locations, reminders, and widgets across multiple members from one dashboard. Invite easily and cover everyone at a single low price, because family safety can't wait. Why Caretaker? In the grip of caregiving stress, you need a solution that acts now—not later. Caretaker is your immediate safety net: GDPR-compliant, encrypted, with global servers for unbreakable security. Supports 15+ languages (English, Spanish, French, German, and more) for SMS and voice calls (where service is offered, push notifications available worldwide).
