Steady ground
The day, the date, and what comes next. Always in view, never a button to find, nothing for them to learn. The board stays on and stays simple.
For families living with cognitive decline
They ask. Cassi answers. As many times as it takes.
Compasse turns an iPad into a calm companion board for an older adult with cognitive decline. Cassi answers their questions in a warm, patient voice, keeps the day in plain view, and plays back short recordings from the people they love. You set it up from your phone and see that they are okay.
The family trial is free. At launch, Compasse will be $29 a month with the first week free. We will email you when your spot opens. No spam, ever.
Start your free week
Then $29 a month, with a 30 day money back guarantee. Cancel anytime, in one tap. If care ends, billing stops immediately and we refund the unused part of the month.

Sarah visits
Today at 2:00 PM
This clock is live. The board really is this simple: the day, the time, what comes next, and one tap to talk.
Their side
What they see, and who they talk to
Voices they know
You record once“Good morning, Mom. It’s Sarah. I love you.”
The board, 8:00 AM“Good morning, Mom. It’s Sarah. I love you.”
What you record is exactly what they hear, played at the right moments. Cassi answers everything else in her own calm voice.
Patience that never runs out
The fourth time they ask what day it is, Cassi answers the same way she did the first time. Warm, unhurried, never annoyed. That patience is the whole point.
Your side
Your phone stays quiet. You stay informed.
A glance, not a vigil
✓ All quiet. Meds on track. Tablet online.
Check in on Mom
Call Mom
Open the Compasse app on your iPhone to see the board is running and messages were heard. No cameras, no listening in on their day. The caregiver app is iPhone only for now.
Interrupted only when it matters
! Mom missed the 8 AM medication
Compasse interrupts you for four things only: a missed medication, an answer to a check-in you sent, a call request, and the tablet going offline. Everything else waits calmly on your dashboard.
Mom“Cassi, call Sarah.”
Cassi“Calling Sarah now.”
The tablet rings your phone on FaceTime. Company between your calls, not instead of them.
Getting started
Set up in minutes, from your own phone
1
Set up your phone
Add medications, the day’s plan, and record a few short messages in your voice.
2
One code on the iPad
They never need an email, a password, or any setup of their own.
3
Place it where they’ll see it
The board stays on. They just talk to it, and you stay in the loop.
Works on most iPads families already have, 2017 or newer, plugged in on a simple stand.
The real setup, in 46 seconds. Every tap, nothing skipped.
Compasse began at home. Our co-founder’s father uses the board every day, and every feature is tested in a real family before it reaches yours.

Private by design
Only listens when spoken to
A conversation happens only when your loved one speaks to Cassi. Recordings are used only to make Compasse work, and the speech partners that power Cassi are named in our privacy policy, written in plain English. Payments are handled by Stripe, so your card number never touches our servers.
Straight answers
How we earn your trust
Real claims only
Every claim on this page is true and checked. No paid reviews, no invented ratings, no stock families. The photos are real homes. When founding families share their stories, we will publish them with their permission and their names.
Clear about what Compasse is not
Not a medical device. Not emergency response. Not monitoring. It does not call 911 or detect falls. We say this plainly because you are trusting us with someone you love. The full answer is in the questions below.
Easy to leave
If Compasse is not right for your family, tell us. A real person answers, and we help you close out and delete your family’s data completely.
Cancel anytime in one tap, no phone call, no retention script. If care ends, billing stops immediately and we refund the unused part of the month. And a real person answers every message.
Simple pricing
One plan, everything included
One hour of in-home care runs about $35 (Genworth Cost of Care Survey). Compasse is $29 for the whole month. It will never replace the care you give. It keeps them company in between.
$29/month
First week free. Cancel anytime, online, in one tap.
Your card is charged after the free week ends. Cancel before then and you pay nothing.
If care ends, tell us. We stop the subscription immediately and refund the unused part of the month.

Questions
Before you decide
Does my loved one need to learn anything?
No. The board is always on and they just talk to it. There are no passwords or menus on their side. Setup on their iPad is a one-time code that you enter yourself.
What if they ask the same question many times?
That is what Cassi is for. The same patient answer, every time, without a sigh and without a “like I said.” Repeated questions are normal with cognitive decline, and answering them kindly is the job.
What about privacy? Is it always listening?
A conversation happens only when your loved one speaks to Cassi. Recordings are used only to make Compasse work, and the speech partners that power Cassi are named in our privacy policy, which is written in plain English and covers all of it. Payments are handled by Stripe, so your card number never touches our servers.
Is this a medical device? Can it call 911?
No. Compasse is a comfort and communication tool, not a medical device, an emergency response system, or a monitoring service. It does not call 911, detect falls, or guarantee that medication gets taken. It gives your loved one a calm, familiar presence and gives you a clearer picture of the day. If your family needs emergency response or medical monitoring, please use a dedicated service alongside Compasse, and always keep your existing emergency plans in place.
Does it replace visits and calls?
No, and it never should. Compasse is company between your visits and calls, not a substitute for them. Many families use the board to feel closer: a good morning in your voice, a photo of the day, a call they can start by asking.
What do I need to run Compasse?
An iPad from 2017 or newer for your loved one, and an iPhone for you. The iPad sitting in a drawer somewhere is probably perfect. A simple stand helps, and it should stay plugged in.
Can more than one family member use it?
Right now each family has one caregiver phone connected. Support for siblings and other family members is on the way.
What does it cost?
During our family trial, Compasse is free. At launch it will be $29 a month with the first week free, everything included, cancel anytime. No tiers, no setup fee, no contract, and nothing else to buy.
What does it cost?
Your first week is free, then it’s $29 a month, everything included. We ask for a card up front, and if you cancel during the free week you are never charged. And once you are paying, there is a 30 day money back guarantee: if Compasse is not right for your family in your first 30 days of paying, tell us and we refund it in full. There are no tiers, no setup fee, no contract, and nothing else to buy.
Can I really cancel anytime? What if it doesn’t work for us?
Yes: one tap, from the app or the website, with no phone call and no retention script. If care has ended, tell us with one tap. Billing stops immediately and we automatically refund the unused part of the month, no request needed. If you just need a pause, you can stop billing and everything stays saved, ready to resume in one tap. And if Compasse simply isn’t right for your family in your first 30 days of paying, tell us and we refund it in full: that is our 30 day money back guarantee. There is a Send Feedback button on your dashboard and a real person answers it. We will help you close out and delete your family’s data completely.
What if it doesn’t work for us?
