Who can use AtendaCare, and how can it help?

AtendaCare is built for family caregivers, especially those caring for someone with memory loss or dementia. It works as your voice-first companion: listening without judgment, remembering details you share, and offering practical ideas when you need them.

Underneath, AtendaCare combines trusted dementia care methods, expert resources, and the lived experiences of other caregivers. That means you can ask specific questions about dementia, symptoms, or stages of the disease — and get clear, useful answers in plain language.

Because it learns with you, AtendaCare grows more personal and more helpful over time. As caregivers share their experiences, the system becomes smarter, surfacing insights you may not have even thought to ask about yet.

AtendaCare isn’t a cold chatbot — it was designed to listen first, without judgment. Many caregivers find it easier to share feelings of guilt, frustration, or exhaustion with AtendaCare than even with their closest friends. And unlike people, it’s always available, 24/7.

AtendaCare doesn’t replace your support circle, but it fills the gaps — giving you comfort, practical ideas, and a safe space whenever you need it.

It does both. Listening comes first so AtendaCare understands your unique situation. But behind that, it has a hyper-smart caregiving knowledge system — combining medical expertise (from NIH, CDC, Alzheimer’s Association, and more) with the lived wisdom of caregivers like you.

This means AtendaCare can explain symptoms, describe the stages of dementia, and suggest practical strategies. Over time, it grows as more caregivers share their tips, so its guidance stays grounded in both science and real life.

AtendaCare isn’t a doctor and won’t diagnose, but it is a caregiving companion that gives you solid, usable guidance in plain language — sometimes even surfacing answers you didn’t know to ask for yet.

Yes. Protecting your privacy is non-negotiable. AtendaCare is being built with HIPAA-grade security — meaning your data is encrypted, auditable, and designed to meet healthcare standards. Nothing you share is ever sold. You stay in full control of what’s stored and what’s shared.

But privacy isn’t just about locks and codes. It’s also about trust. AtendaCare is your safe space to speak openly, to log what really happens day to day, and to share feelings you might not even say aloud to family. That trust depends on knowing your words stay private and protected.

We’ve built AtendaCare so you can have both: the freedom to speak honestly, and the assurance that your information is safe.

No. AtendaCare doesn’t replace your doctor — it supports them.

Think of it as your daily partner in between visits. AtendaCare helps you keep a running log of meals, moods, behaviors, and symptoms. It stores medical history and records securely, and it can generate a clear summary for you to take to your next appointment. That way, your doctor gets a fuller picture of what’s really happening day to day, not just what you can recall in the office.

AtendaCare also has clinical guardrails. When red-flag symptoms appear — like sudden confusion, falls with a head injury, chest pain, or severe fever — it will always remind you to contact a doctor or seek urgent care right away.

So AtendaCare isn’t a substitute for medical care. It’s a bridge — making your visits more productive and giving your healthcare team better insight, while supporting you every day in between.

Getting started is simple. As soon as you sign up, AtendaCare begins with a short voice interview — just a conversation, not a form. You don’t have to finish it all at once; you can pause and come back anytime.

This “voice-first” approach means no paperwork, no checkboxes — just talking. Over time, AtendaCare gathers the details that matter so its answers are tailored to you.

Voice-first means you don’t have to type, tap through menus, or fill out forms. With AtendaCare, you just talk. You can say things like, “Log this,” “Remind me,” or “What does sundowning mean?” and it listens.

Everything starts with your voice, making it natural, simple, and hands-free.

Yes. Every caregiver has strategies that make life a little easier, and your insights can help others. AtendaCare is designed to grow smarter with each new contribution.

Your story will be anonymized — no personal details are attached — but the wisdom remains. Over time, these tips become part of AtendaCare’s living knowledge, so when another caregiver faces a challenge, your idea may be the one that helps.

AtendaCare is designed for caregivers — to give you a private space to talk, track, and get support.

That said, your loved one may still benefit indirectly. You can use AtendaCare to play calming music, schedule reminders that are heard in the home, or set prompts that bring structure to routines. In these ways, the person you care for can feel supported even though the app itself is not built for them to use directly.

We also understand that some families want their loved ones to have direct interaction, and that is certainly in our plans. For now, our focus is on empowering caregivers — because when you are supported, your loved one is supported too.

Generic AI tools like Alexa, Siri, or ChatGPT are broad and shallow. They can answer trivia or casual questions, but they don’t know your caregiving situation, they don’t remember your history, and they aren’t trained for dementia care.

AtendaCare is different. It is hyper-trained on both dementia itself and the realities of caregiving. It listens, remembers, and adapts to your journey. It combines trusted medical expertise (from NIH, CDC, Alzheimer’s Association, and more) with the lived wisdom of caregivers like you. That makes its answers practical, relevant, and grounded in both science and experience.

Because it learns and grows over time, AtendaCare can even surface answers to questions you didn’t know to ask yet. And unlike generic AI, it is built with HIPAA-grade security and clinical guardrails, so you can trust it to be private, safe, and truly designed for the caregiving world.

It’s free to sign up, and you can start talking with AtendaCare right away at no cost.

Dementia care is where AtendaCare started, but its features help in many caregiving situations. Journaling, reminders, secure recordkeeping, and emotional support are useful whether you’re caring for a spouse, a parent, or another family member with complex needs.

AtendaCare adapts to your circumstances so it grows with you.

AtendaCare works on your smartphone, tablet, or computer. Because it’s voice-first, you can use it hands-free wherever you are. Support for popular voice assistants is also in development, so you’ll be able to connect even more easily in the future.
