Basia starts the conversation
At the agreed time, Maria receives a gentle notification. She opens one simple conversation in the app and replies by text or voice.
First pilot: an in-app conversation with an older relative
Basia checks in.
The family follows through.
An older relative texts or sends a voice message to Basia, Rondo’s automated AI assistant. Basia is not human. She shares only the requests the older person explicitly approves.
The first pilot is for older adults who use a smartphone independently and regularly · telephone calls are planned for a later stage

01
A simple rhythm. Real help.
A few messages. Everyone knows what happens next.
Maria decides
Basia clearly identifies herself as an automated AI assistant. Before sharing a request, she shows Maria the exact wording and asks for permission.
The circle follows through
The family sees the approved request, one person takes responsibility, and Maria receives confirmation that help is on the way.
02
One shared family view
Fewer messages. More certainty.
This is not another family group chat. It shows what needs doing, who has taken it, and what has already been completed.
- One clear list of requests
- An agreed order of contact
- A visible confirmation when someone takes responsibility

Dignity first. Data second.
A private conversation—not a report for the family.
Basia processes messages to hold the conversation and prepare a suggested request. The family never sees the whole chat—only wording approved by the older person. Every participant will receive clear message-retention rules before joining the pilot.
