This is why I Start...

During the pandemic, I became the caregiver for my grandmother, who was in late-stage Alzheimer’s.

​

We had missed the early signs—her forgetfulness, anxiety, and personality changes—thinking they were just part of aging. My grandfather had been her sole caregiver for years, caring for her every minute until the stress led to a stroke that left him in a coma.

That experience shaped Alzi.

​

We created a voice-based AI companion that engages older adults in daily conversations while quietly tracking cognitive health—so caregivers get the insights they need without being overwhelmed.

​

Our goal is simple:
Ease the burden on families, and help them care better—before it’s too late.
