Caring from a distance
Stay connected to what matters without constant phone calls. You're alerted when something needs attention — wherever you are.
In development · Early-access waitlist open
You cannot always be there. You can still know when it matters.
DEMENZA is a privacy-first, AI-powered home safety system for people living with dementia and Alzheimer's. It notices falls, calls for help, leaving home and other critical moments — and alerts the family only when help may be needed.

Made for families
Peace of mind for everyone who cares
Whether you live across town or across the ocean, DEMENZA helps you know your loved one is safe — while they keep living at home, with dignity.
Caring under one roof
Rest, work or step out for a while. DEMENZA keeps watch over the home while you recharge.
Day and night
Night-time wandering and falls often go unnoticed for hours. DEMENZA stays aware around the clock.
How it works
Watches over the home — not the person's memory
Smart cameras understand what is happening in the room and stay silent until something needs attention. Nothing to wear, charge, remember or press.
Falls
Too long in the bathroom or inactive
Wandering & leaving home
Fire, smoke & smoke-alarm sound
Call for help — gesture or voice

Signs of distress
01
Detect
On-device AI recognises critical moments — a fall, prolonged inactivity, leaving home at an unusual hour, fire or smoke, a call for help by gesture or voice.
02
Verify
Context, not a blind alarm. You receive an alert with a short verification clip — only when something happens.
03
Act
You decide what happens next: call your loved one, reach a neighbour or caregiver, or call for help — in one tap.
A day at home
Quiet when all is well. Present when it matters.
An example day with DEMENZA. Most of the time you hear nothing at all — and that's the point.
All calm
Mom and Dad get up and make breakfast. Normal morning routine — no notification.
Gentle reminder · planned
Dad hasn't had a drink since he woke up. Not an alarm — a quiet nudge.
You call him for a chat and remind him to drink some water.
All calm
Afternoon nap. A short rest is normal — DEMENZA only flags inactivity that lasts unusually long.
Alert
Mom falls in the hallway. Within seconds, you get an alert with a short silhouette clip.
You call the neighbour, who checks in minutes later.
All calm
Evening routine, lights off. DEMENZA keeps a quiet watch through the night.
Alert
Dad opens the front door and leaves the apartment in the middle of the night.
You're notified right away and can act before he leaves the street.
Sensor, not surveillance
Continuous awareness — without continuous video
Nobody sits and watches your loved one. The camera thinks locally and speaks up only when it matters. Raw video does not continuously leave the home.

Why DEMENZA
Built for dementia — not adapted to it
Families often patch together tools that were never designed for memory loss. Here's how DEMENZA is different.
| What families need | SOS button / wearable | Standard home camera | Phone check-ins | DEMENZA |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Nothing to wear, charge or press | ||||
| Works even if they forget, refuse or can't respond | ||||
| Detects falls automatically | ||||
| Notices leaving home at night | ||||
| Hears a spoken call for help | ||||
| Notices a too-long bathroom stay — without any image | ||||
| Recognises an existing smoke alarm sounding | ||||
| Context to verify before you act | ||||
| One-tap call to family, caregiver or 911 from the alert | ||||
| Alerts several family members at once | ||||
| No one has to keep watching | ||||
| Bathrooms and private spaces stay private | ||||
| No continuous video stream |
What we stand for
AI-powered care. Human dignity.
Technology should support human care — never replace it.
Questions
Frequently asked questions
Does DEMENZA record my loved one all the time?
No. The AI runs on the camera inside the home and there is no continuous video stream. You receive an alert with a short clip only when a critical event is detected. Privacy zones keep intimate spaces such as bathrooms out of view.
Does my loved one need to wear or press anything?
No. DEMENZA is fully passive — nothing to wear, charge, remember or press. It is designed for people whose memory and judgement may fail at exactly the wrong moment.
What does DEMENZA detect?
Our first plan, Essential, focuses on immediate safety: falls, prolonged inactivity (for example far too long in the bathroom, without any image from that room), wandering or leaving the home, fire, smoke and the sound of an existing smoke alarm, and a call for help by gesture or voice. Later plans will add daily-routine insights such as hydration, meals and medication.
Does DEMENZA listen to conversations?
No. Voice detection runs on the device and listens only for a short list of help phrases, such as “Help!”. Conversations are not recorded or sent anywhere.
Can I see whether a paid caregiver actually visited?
That's planned for a later plan: DEMENZA will log when a caregiver arrives and leaves, and gently flag visits that are missed or much shorter than scheduled. If your loved one is in distress — shouting, crying or calling for help — you're alerted whoever is in the room. Caregivers should always be told that the home uses DEMENZA.
Does it replace a caregiver or emergency services?
No. DEMENZA supports human care — it doesn't replace it. You and the people you trust decide how to respond to every alert. DEMENZA is not an emergency service and not a medical device.
When will DEMENZA be available?
DEMENZA is currently in development. We're preparing a real-world pilot with a small group of families first. Join the waitlist and we'll let you know as soon as early access opens.
