Is Mom okay?

Every morning, Zaidey sends one line like this to everyone who loves her. From her phone and the things already in her home. She sees exactly what you see.

Free for 30 days. Nothing to buy. Mom, Dad, or anyone living alone.

Sorry honey, I was in the shower. Why do you keep calling?
With Zaidey
9:00
Zaidey · Ruth
Okay. Up at 7:12, kitchen at 7:40, answered the 8:30 call.

Silence isn't information. It's a blank you fill with the worst thing. Zaidey fills it with what was actually seen, at the same time, for everyone. You stop calling to check. She stops being checked on.

Stop calling to check. Start knowing.

The Okay

Zaidey never says okay unless it saw her.

One word, then one line of why. Green, yellow, or red, and every state carries a word so it reads without colour. When Zaidey can't say okay, it tells you what it did see, since when, and what it's doing about it. Nothing is softened. Nothing is guessed.

Never "she's fine." Never "all clear." Never a guess about why. The strongest word Zaidey uses is okay, and it has to earn it.

Zaidey · Ruth · Tue 9:00 AM
Okay. Up at 6:58, front door at 9:40 (Tuesday, usual), back by 11:15.
What was seen, with timesHer name first. Times are hers, never a vendor's.
What wasn't, and since whenNamed by the family's label: "her kitchen plug."
What Zaidey is doing about it"Calling her at 9:15." "Dana is on it."
What she said, if she chose to share itHer words, her choice.

Days 1 to 14

It learns her. Not a number.

For two weeks Zaidey learns when her day usually starts, what her mornings usually hold, and how Tuesdays differ from Sundays. Then it watches for her, not for a stranger's idea of normal. A 9:30 wake-up is late for one person and usual for another. Zaidey knows which.

Fourteen mornings. The first time she was seen each day. Her window settles: up between 6:50 and 7:30.

Ruth's normal

Up between 6:50 and 7:30. Kitchen by 8. Out Tuesdays around 10, back by noon. Winds down about 10:15pm. About 3,100 steps a day.

This is what Zaidey now watches for. If a morning doesn't look like this, you'll be the first to know.

Day 15. The first time you'll feel that Zaidey knows your mother.

The circle

The same line, to everyone, at the same moment.

Okay. Up at 7:12, kitchen at 7:40, answered the 8:30 call.

Your brother in Chicago. The neighbour with the key. The aunt who worries. Everyone in her circle gets the same words at the same time, so nobody is the one who knows and nobody is out of the loop. Add as many people as she's comfortable with.

One price per parent.Her whole circle included. Never per person.

When a morning doesn't look like her

Zaidey calls her. Then it calls a person who knows her. One at a time, until someone has reached her.

8:15
Ruth is later than she has ever been. Zaidey texts her.
Good morning Ruth, it's Ellie. Tap OK when you're up.
8:30
The morning call rings. No answer.
8:40
It rings again.
9:00
The circle's morning text says so.
Not seen yet. Nothing since 10:20 last night. Two calls unanswered. Worry line at 9:45.
9:45
Dana is on call this week. Zaidey calls her. She calls her mother.
9:52
Dana can't reach her. She taps "Couldn't reach her, escalate." Michael's phone rings.
10:05
Michael can't either. Pat, who has a key, gets a one-screen brief: what to do, who to call.
10:11
Pat lets herself in.

Three people, in an order you chose, with timers. Zaidey never dials 911 on its own. A person who knows her decides. Setup isn't finished until three people have said yes to being on her chain. That's a rule, not a suggestion.

Set up Zaidey for your parent

For the parent

Nothing is sent about you that you can't see.

If your daughter or son set this up, this part is for you.

Every morning you get the same note your family gets, before they act on it. You decide what's shared: just okay or not, your day with times, or everything. You can turn off any source. You can pause it for an afternoon and nobody is told why. You can stop it, and nobody can override you.

Nobody watches you. There are no cameras, no location trail, no countdowns. Zaidey works for you first.

The morning call is company as much as a check-in. It asks how you slept. It can pass a message to your family in your words. And the voice is yours to name.
Zaidey for RuthTue 9:00
Good morning Ruth.
Your family sees:
Okay. Up at 7:12, kitchen at 7:40.
What I share
What Dana, Michael, Pat and Joan get
Zaidey · Ruth
Okay. Up at 7:12, kitchen at 7:40.

Nothing to buy

Zaidey reads what's already in her home. It never sells hardware.

Her iPhoneTells Zaidey when she's up.
Her Apple WatchSteps, sleep, and a confirmed fall, after the fact.
A $17 door sensorThe front door, or the pill cabinet.
The kettle's plugKitchen by 8.
A Withings cuff or sleep matIf she has one.
The morning callWorks with no devices at all.

Her phone is enough to start. If she has nothing else, Zaidey calls her each morning and she taps OK. If she has a Watch, a doorbell, a smart plug, or a blood pressure cuff, Zaidey reads them. If a device goes quiet, Zaidey says so by name. It never pretends a silent sensor is alive.

No video. No audio from the home. No location trail. Events only: a door opened, a plug drew power, a phone woke up.

Set up tonight. Her first Okay on day 15.

TONIGHT

Set up Zaidey for her.

Fifteen minutes. Her name, three people who could check on her, and a short call where Zaidey asks her permission in plain words.

DAYS 1 TO 14

Zaidey learns her normal.

Two weeks of "seen today" notes while it learns when her day starts and what her mornings hold.

DAY 15

Her normal, and her first Okay.

Then every morning, one line, to everyone.

Day 0Set up
Day 15Her normal
Day 21We ask for a card
Day 30Trial ends

Free for 30 days. We don't ask for a card until day 21, after you've seen her normal.

Be the one who knows. Not the one who worries.

That's the whole product.

Not a pendant.

She won't wear one. Zaidey doesn't need her to.

Not a camera.

Nobody watches. Zaidey reads events, never video.

Not an app she has to learn.

Her part is a phone call and a button that says "I'm okay."

And not medical monitoring. Zaidey is a daily check-in. It doesn't diagnose, doesn't claim to detect anything, and doesn't replace an emergency service. It tells you what was seen, and it tells the truth.

Questions

The ones everyone asks.

Will my mother hate this?
Only if it feels like being watched. So it doesn't watch. She sees every word her family sees, she chooses what's shared, and she can pause or stop it herself. Zaidey asks her permission on a call before the first morning. Most parents say yes to "your kids get one note a morning" and no to "your kids can see everything." Zaidey is built for the first.
Does Zaidey detect falls?
No. Her Watch does, if she wears one. Zaidey puts one of her people on the Watch's emergency contact list so the Watch's own alert lands in the chain, and reads the Watch's record of a confirmed fall after the fact. Zaidey never claims fall detection.
What if she has no smart devices?
Her phone is enough. If she has nothing but a landline, Zaidey calls her each morning and she says she's up. That's a real signal. Everything else is optional.
Is this medical monitoring?
No. Zaidey is a daily check-in, not a medical device, not a monitoring centre, not an emergency service. It never dials 911. It tells the people who love her what was seen and what wasn't, and it runs a chain of humans when a morning doesn't look like her.
How many people can be in her circle?
As many as she's comfortable with. Siblings, a neighbour, an aide, a friend. One price per parent, no per-person fees. Anyone can drop to a weekly digest if daily is too much.
What happens when it can't see her?
It says so. "Not seen yet. Nothing since 10:05 last night." Then it texts her, calls her, and if she's later than she's ever been and two calls go unanswered, it calls the first person on her chain. It never says okay to make you feel better.
Where does Zaidey work, and what about privacy?
The US and Canada. Zaidey stores events, not video or audio from her home, and never a location trail. Nothing is sold. When the account closes, the record goes to the family and is then deleted on a schedule you set.
What about my dad?
Mom, Dad, an aunt, a neighbour. Anyone who lives alone and has people who wonder.

Tonight, put something in place. By day 15, know her mornings.

We're setting up our first 25 founding households in the US and Canada this fall.
