Voice memo to record entry
The carer dictates, Otso drafts a structured entry and flags missing details. The carer approves it before it is saved.

The paperwork writes itself. A carer signs it off.
Otso Care is a private AI assistant for care homes and home care. It drafts visit notes, reports and rotas, keeps families up to date and calls clients living at home every morning. Client data stays on the unit’s own box, never in the cloud.
Save up to €100k a year in every location.*
*Our own estimate. [Basis of the calculation]
Care is short of hands. Paperwork eats the time that’s left.
Documentation
Visit notes, daily and monthly reports, rotas and messages, often written after the shift.
More clients every year
More older people, living at home for longer, and too few carers to visit them all.
Long hours between visits
A short visit a day leaves long hours with no one to talk to, and families far away.
One agreement. A box in every unit.
- 1
Buy
The care company signs one agreement and pays per box, per month. No IT project.
- 2
Deploy
A box in every care home unit. Staff use it on WhatsApp or with Otso Pocket.
- 3
Extend
The same company takes Otso into home care, with devices in clients’ homes working alongside the box.
The AI and its memory live inside the box. A person approves every action.
In care homes
Paperwork off the carer’s plate.
Otso drafts, a person signs off. Nothing is filed, sent or invoiced until someone has approved it.

Concept
Otso Pocket: a recorder clipped to every carer.
Press once and speak. The observation or the whole visit goes to the unit’s box, not to the cloud, and comes back as a draft note to approve.
- Observations
- “Aino ate half her lunch, hip still sore.”
- Visit recording
- With the client’s consent, summarised on the box.
- No phone needed
- Hands free during care, synced when back in range.
In home care
A companion that calls, listens and keeps family close.
Morning call
No answer? The family or the nurse hears about it.
Someone to talk to
News, memories, the grandchildren, on their own phone.
Reminders
Medicines, meals, appointments and care visit times.
For the family
A short note to family, only what the person wants to share.
Otso reminds, but it never assesses symptoms or gives medical advice. Anything health-related goes to a person.
Coming next: devices that meet people where they are.
Roadmap
Voice speaker
Talk to Otso without a phone. One button, a soft light.
Roadmap
Simple tablet
Video calls with family, photos and the day’s plan in large type.
Roadmap
Alert button
A wearable button that calls family or the care team.
Roadmap
Home sensors
Door, movement and temperature, so a quiet morning gets noticed.
Every device talks only to the box in the home. No camera, no data to the cloud. Devices and timing are not final.
Integrations and templates
Built around the systems care already runs on.
Ready-made templates are built around client record, care management, rota and safety alarm systems. Connections to each provider’s systems are set up during the pilot.

Ready-made templates for care
Night alarms into the morning report
Night alarms and sensor data become the morning handover: who needed help, when, and what was done.
Connects: Everon, Vivago, TunstallShift handover
The day’s entries and the rota become one handover for the next shift, plus a short brief for cover staff.
Connects: Titania, Quinyx, DomaCareMissed dose follow-up
A missed-dose event from the dispenser becomes a task in the home care app and a draft note to the nurse.
Connects: Evondos, Nursebuddy, Kotihoito MukanaVisits match the invoices
Compares completed visits with service vouchers and invoices, and flags missing or extra visits.
Connects: Phoniro, PSOP, Procountor, NetvisorWeekly family update
Approved entries become a plain-language update for the family. A carer checks it before it goes out.

Care data is the most private data there is.
Health, medicines, memory, money, family conflicts, the inside of someone’s home. A care assistant hears all of it, every day. That is why Otso keeps it on the box.

Designed to support what the rules require.
GDPR, Article 9
Health data is special-category data, with stricter rules on how it may be processed.
Finland’s Client Data Act (703/2023)
Rules for recording, storing and disclosing social and health care client data.
EU AI Act
Transparency and human oversight as AI enters care work.
Data that never leaves the premises is far simpler to govern. Compliance always also depends on how each provider uses Otso.
One platform, three sizes of box.
In the client’s home
Otso Base
One older person living at home: morning calls, reminders and family updates.
One clientCare home or home care team
Otso Pro

Questions? Answers.
Is Otso a medical device?
No. Otso reminds and passes on information, but it does not assess symptoms, diagnose or give treatment advice. Anything health-related is always passed to a person.
Does Otso work with our client record system?
We set up the connection to your system during the pilot. Notes arrive as drafts, and a carer approves them before they are saved.
Where is client data kept?
On the unit’s own box. The AI model, memory and draft notes are processed on the box. We have no copy.
Can visits be recorded?
Only with the client’s consent and under the provider’s own rules. An observation can always be logged in the carer’s own words instead.
What if the box breaks?
We replace it. An encrypted backup is kept on a second device on site, never in the cloud.
