Care is a journey.
Keep the connection.
An AI-supported companion, a responsible care team and a community around the person. Each has a clear role.
One connected care loop
The app would help adults begin in Malayalam or English through voice or text. An assisted route would be designed with partners for people who cannot use an app. All six stages below are proposed; they are not a live service.
01Listen and notice
Start with voice, text or a mood check-in. With separate permission, sleep and activity trends from a compatible wearable could add context. A device would never be required.
02Understand the context
Nia, the proposed clinical AI model, would organise relevant information and prepare a summary for the care team, including its sources and uncertainty. Wearable signals would be context, not a diagnosis.
03Agree the next step
A qualified professional reviews the information with the person and agrees assessment, care or referral. Clinical decisions remain with responsible professionals.
04Act with support
A named coordinator helps connect the plan to professional care, practical social support and, if the person chooses, a moderated community Circle.
05Follow up
Check how the person is doing, how everyday life is going, and whether an agreed appointment or referral actually happened.
06Review and adapt
The person and their care team use the follow-up to update the plan and agree the next check-in. This returns the journey to listening, with care that can respond to change.
Nia helps prepare. Professionals decide.
Nia is the proposed clinical AI model behind structured summaries and decision support. The intended value is to make relevant context easier to review: what a person has shared, what has changed, and where uncertainty remains.
Qualified professionals would retain assessment, diagnosis, treatment and escalation decisions. Summaries would need source traceability, correction and human review. Nia’s clinical usefulness and language performance have not yet been demonstrated.
Wearables add optional context
Compatible devices could contribute sleep and activity trends with specific consent. These signals can have many explanations; they must not be presented as a diagnosis. People should be able to use Eirene without a wearable and withdraw permission for future sharing.
A referral should lead somewhere
A named coordinator would help with appointments, practical barriers and agreed follow-up. Before a pilot, partners must define who receives a referral, when they can respond, and how continuity is maintained.
Clinical records, community participation and research consent would have separate purposes and access rules. This public website collects none of those records.
