Sensu helps families look after an older loved one from afar. Each day it asks them to confirm they're okay, in the app or over WhatsApp. If they don't answer, Sensu alerts their emergency contacts in order. It also detects phone falls, sends SOS alerts, tracks safe zones and sends reminders. On Premium, a 24/7 human care center and the Angela emergency button add live response. Built for families in Latin America. Free plan available.

Could you build this?
Partial Daily check-ins, escalating contact alerts, and safe-zone reminders are vibe-codeable, but reliable fall detection and a trusted emergency workflow need sensor-algorithm expertise and careful handling of liability.
What it would actually take: The stack is a mobile app with scheduled check-ins, a WhatsApp Business API integration for messaging, and push or SMS escalation. Fall detection requires accelerometer and gyroscope signal processing with tuned classifiers and extensive false-positive testing on real users. A production version also needs medical and safety review, privacy and health-data compliance, and reliable 24/7 alerting infrastructure.
