About Us:

Koko Home is on a mission to address the two most important and impactful trends in healthcare today: 1) meeting the needs of a rapidly aging population outstripping the system's capabilities to care for them; and 2) patients desire to age and be cared for at home.

The company’s product offering includes a digital care companion and enablement platform for senior living and home care. The solution integrates intelligent ambient sensing (radar), artificial intelligence (AI) and large language models (LLM's) to streamline caregiver-patient interactions, boost engagement, and empower patients with a better understanding of their care plans, leading to timely interventions that improve care while reducing overall care delivery costs.
