Our Story
Grace Companion was born from a simple observation: whilst technology advances at breathtaking speed, the needs of our elders and those facing cognitive challenges are often left behind. We watched family members struggle to stay connected with loved ones who forget appointments, miss medications and feel increasingly isolated.
We knew technology could help, but not the kind that requires tapping through menus, remembering passwords, or navigating complex interfaces. What was needed was something fundamentally different: technology that meets people where they are, speaks their language, and provides support without adding stress.
Grace Companion is our answer. It's an AI companion designed not to replace human connection, but to support it. To help elders maintain independence whilst giving families peace of mind. To use the power of artificial intelligence in service of genuine human needs.
Our Mission
To empower elders and individuals with cognitive challenges to live independently with dignity, whilst providing families the reassurance they need and deserve.
We believe that:
- Everyone deserves technology that works for them, not against them
- Ageing should not mean losing independence
- Cognitive challenges should not lead to social isolation
- Families should be able to support loved ones without constant worry
- AI should be a tool for compassion, not complexity
Our Values
Compassion First
Every feature is designed with empathy for the real challenges faced by elders and those with cognitive impairments. We prioritise kindness over cleverness.
Simplicity
Technology should fade into the background, leaving only support and comfort. We ruthlessly eliminate complexity.
Privacy & Trust
We handle vulnerable populations' data with the utmost care. Privacy isn't a feature; it's a responsibility we take seriously.
Dignity
Everyone deserves to be treated with respect. Grace never patronises, never rushes and always listens with patience.
Accessibility
We design for those who are often excluded from the digital world. Accessibility isn't compliance; it's our core purpose.
Transparency
We're honest about what Grace can and cannot do. We clearly communicate limitations and never overpromise.
Our Commitment
Grace Companion is not just a product; it's a promise. We commit to:
- Continuously improving based on feedback from users and families
- Never sacrificing privacy or security for profit
- Maintaining affordable pricing so support is accessible to all
- Providing patient, compassionate customer support
- Being transparent about AI capabilities and limitations
- Advocating for the needs of elders in the technology industry
- Collaborating with healthcare professionals and dementia experts

Why "Grace"?
Grace means elegance, kindness and a gift freely given. It's the patience to repeat something for the fifth time without frustration. It's the compassion to recognise when someone needs help before they ask. It's the understanding that ageing and cognitive challenges don't diminish a person's worth or need for connection.
Grace Companion embodies these qualities in every interaction, every reminder, and every moment of support.
