AI companion

Elena está
bien hoy.
Durmió profundo. Desayunó con apetito. Esta mañana le contó a Vita sobre Santiago — de cuando era pequeño y se escapaba al patio.
Vita doesn't just keep her company.
She helps the family coordinate.
Medication schedules, appointments, daily activities and the family care plan, organized in one place. Confirmations come from the people providing care.
Vita is her companion and a coordination layer for the family.
Your parents don't tell you when they feel lonely. They don't want to worry you. And between the moment they wake up and the moment you call, ten hours pass.
How she enters her life.
And yours.
Vita greets her. She answers by voice.
"Good morning, Elena. How did you sleep?" No menus, no apps, no commands. Just voice. Vita listens, learns her routine, and notices if something sounds different from yesterday.
You open the daily digest.
A human summary — not a data dump. How she slept. What's on her mind. The story she told Vita that you didn't know. And at the end: "Call her tonight. She's mentioned you three times."
She takes her meds. You find out without asking.
Vita can remind her at her own pace. A family member or caregiver records the confirmation shown on the dashboard. Vita does not verify that medication was taken.
She tells Vita a story from when she was young.
About her father, the train to Zipaquirá, the blue dress. Vita captures the story exactly as she tells it. It enters the Book of Life — in her own words. Her grandchildren will read it twenty years from now.
You call her. You know what to talk about.
"Mom, how is Santiago?" And she smiles, because you know. And you know because Vita told you. And the distance, for tonight, doesn't weigh.

One family. One product.
One story.
Vita was born at a kitchen table. Carlos's mom lives alone in Cúcuta, Colombia. Laura's parents — Miguel and Luz Mary — live alone in Houston. And their daughter Valerie studies neuroscience at UConn, watching three grandparents age across two countries. One family. Three generations. Three sides of the same wound. Vita wasn't born from market analysis — it was born from the question asked at every kitchen table where someone we love lives far away: is she okay?
Built Vita thinking about his own mom in Cúcuta, Colombia. Over 20 years of combined experience in AI and enterprise analytics. MBA from UT Dallas. Industrial Engineer from Universidad Industrial de Santander, Colombia. Harvard Business Analytics. Believes the best technology gives a family back the time they would have spent worrying.
Co-Founder of Lucernas.AI. Lives the diaspora family problem firsthand and coordinates her parents' care from Dallas. Leads commercial strategy, partnerships and the path from Beta 1 in Colombia to the next Founding Families cohort.
Anchors Vita in research on memory, aging and human connection. Studies Neuroscience and Cognitive Science at UConn, where she researches how minds sustain meaning across a lifetime. Pre-med. Helps design Vita's research program on reminiscence, cognitive aging, voice interaction and transnational families. Daughter of Carlos and Laura, she watches three grandparents age across two countries from UConn.
Neuroscience applied to design.
Not added at the end.
Valerie Guzmán, who studies Neuroscience and Cognitive Science at UConn, leads Vita's research program. Published evidence on aging, memory and human connection informs the design; Beta 2 evaluates the product experience without promising clinical outcomes.
Valerie turns evidence into concrete design decisions.
Her program connects four research areas to what families actually use: how Vita converses, what it remembers with consent, how it frames questions and where it must stop.
- Meaningful, culturally respectful conversations
- Personalized Care Plan + routines
- Reminiscence prompts for the Book of Life
- Safety boundaries: observation, never diagnosis
Research links social isolation with risks to older adults' wellbeing. Vita aims to facilitate frequent, meaningful contact without claiming to prevent or treat a health condition.
Research examines how recalling and narrating experiences can support connection and identity. Vita's Book of Life uses reminiscence prompts to preserve family stories; it is not therapy or treatment.
With consent, Vita can identify trends and patterns in conversations and communicate observations to authorized family members. It does not diagnose, produce clinical conclusions or replace professional evaluation.
Many families care for loved ones across borders. Research on transnational care helps Vita frame questions for that reality. Beta 2 will evaluate how this approach works with participating families.
Sources that inform our questions: WHO on social isolation and loneliness, the National Institute on Aging, a review of transnational family caregiving, and a meta-analysis of life review and reminiscence. These sources do not evaluate Vita or establish product outcomes.

"Research helps us ask better questions about memory, attention and connection. Beta 2 will let us evaluate the experience with real families, learn and communicate Vita's limits clearly."
Vita is not a medical device, does not diagnose and does not replace professional care. Vita does not provide emergency response; contact local emergency services in an emergency.

Vita completed Beta 1 in Colombia. Beta 2 is available by invitation or approved application; terms are confirmed before an account is activated.
What every family
asks first.
She does not need to navigate complex menus. Mom can speak with Vita by voice while the family uses the app to configure routines and view authorized information. During Beta 2, we help with setup.
Vita is designed for transnational families and works in Spanish, English and Brazilian Portuguese. Beta 1 was completed in Colombia. Beta 2 availability is confirmed for each application based on country and family setup.
With consent, Vita can identify trends and patterns in conversations and communicate observations to authorized family members. Vita does not diagnose, produce clinical conclusions or provide emergency response. Family permissions determine what information is shared.
Vita is entering Beta 2 through the Founding Families Program. You can apply for access; the team reviews each application and confirms availability, terms and next steps before activating an account.
No. Vita does not provide, employ or assign nurses. It helps the family coordinate schedules, responsibilities and information with the caregivers and professionals the family chooses. Clinical and in-person care remains with those professionals.
Authorized stories and memories can be organized in the Book of Life and exported using the options available in the account. The family retains control of its information, subject to applicable privacy, retention and deletion policies.
You can request cancellation and the export or deletion of available information through account controls or support. Vita confirms the scope and status of each request under its privacy and retention policies.
