CareAlert is a device that looks after the wellbeing of seniors living independently. It allows caregivers to contact seniors via voice using an app, and is independent of any cell phone or landline.
CareAlert contains no camera to maintain the dignity and privacy of seniors. Installation is as simple as plugging them into an outlet.
Founded in 2016, CareAlert is based in Atlanta, Georgia.
This episode was recorded at CES 2019 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Named a top 27 business podcast by Fortune, upside examines startup investing outside of Silicon Valley.
Every Wednesday, we speak with an early stage founder. We interview them as if we are angel investors considering the company as an investment opportunity.
Each show has three segments:
1.) Intro: independent research of the company
2.) Interview: interview with the founder
3.) Debrief: breaking down the opportunity
Sometimes, we share Coffee Chats interviewing venture capitalists, community builders, and later-stage founders.
