Our Approach

Important Principles Guiding Development

Safety First

Companions are based on a foundation of well-established best practices for interacting with people living with dementia, including a robust set of guardrails designed for maximum safety.

Stage Aware

Many qualities of the companion’s speech, such as how proactive vs. reactive to be in conversation, are designed to vary for users in early/mild, middle/moderate, and late/severe stages of dementia.

Adaptivity

Agents are designed to evolve over time, retaining knowledge of past conversations and adapting to the conversational styles, preferences, and sensitive “no-go” zones of individual users.

Privacy and Security

At Audria, the sanctity of personal conversations is a given and preserving the privacy and security of your data is non-negotiable.
