1 True Health is an AgeTech digital health company that offers Health and Wellness AI for aging adults with a specific focus on Cancer Recovery and Caregiver Support for individuals with Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Dementias (AD/RD). Our trueLife solution features a powerful and engaging Virtual Care Companion that: • Improves and automates access to care, • Fosters care plan compliance and medication management at home, • Monitors the health of an individual and facilitates clinical interventions, • Enhances communication with caregivers, family members, and healthcare practitioners, and • Manages the coordination of daily tasks and access to life-enhancing services (food, transportation, finance). Our Leadership Team is comprised of seasoned healthcare technologists (each with over 30 years of experience and multiple successful exits) and our Chief Technology Officer founded the Artificial Intelligence lab at AT&T. 1 True Health is also proud to be a Portfolio Company of the AgeTech Collaborative from AARP (see https://agetechcollaborative.org/). This AgeTech Ecosystem brings companies, enterprises, testbeds, and investors together to advance the health of older adults across the nation. trueLife is a game changer with respect to Artificial Intelligence. It is much more than a Large Language Model and instead it is a novel approach to task management and automation. trueLife interacts the way humans normally do - verbally. And our Virtual Care Companion informs, educates, engages, and guides health and wellness actions (task management, medication management, movement, nutrition, sleep quality). Our platform visualizes and audibly provides clinical care plan and health/wellness instructions, it has embedded notifications, it provides voice-requested access to available services, and it delivers personalized content and, for the first time, builds a care circle around the aging adult that includes their loved ones.
