Care for someone you love — from anywhere.
Luka Bear is a warm, plush companion with a built-in assistant — and a Caregiver Companion App that lets you see, speak, comfort, and check in right from your phone, day or night. So your loved one is never really alone, even when you can’t be in the room. Luka supports independent living — helping people stay safe, on-routine, and connected in their own home.
A companion in the room. Your voice, from anywhere.
In the room, Luka is a warm, familiar presence — it talks, remembers, plays music, runs calming routines, and keeps company. On your phone, the Caregiver Companion App turns that same Luka into a way to be present from anywhere: open the app and see the room live, speak through Luka in your own cloned voice, set reminders, start an activity, and get a quick call if something needs you. Together they help your loved one stay connected to the people and routines they value — and let you step away without stepping out of their life.

Why families choose Luka
Look in any time
Open the app any time and see the room live. When you’re away, turn on Away Monitoring: if Luka notices a big movement, it saves a short activity clip and gives you a quick call.
Be present from anywhere
Speak through Luka in your own cloned voice, send a photo with a message, or play their favorite song. They hear you — no phone to answer, no buttons to press.
Peace of mind, day and night
Reminders you set up — medication times, appointments — run on their own. At night, Cognitive Guardian comforts them in gentle steps and calls you only if it’s truly needed.
An extra set of ears overnight
Company through the day and gentle calming at night, for $129 a month. Luka is a helper for your family — not a replacement for in-person care.
Be there from anywhere
See, speak, and support a loved one through Luka — from the next room or the next state. No app store: open your private link and tap Add to Home Screen, and the Caregiver App lives right on your phone.

Luka helps people stay safely and comfortably in their own homes — the least-restrictive, most person-centered, and most cost-effective setting — with daily routines, reminders, engagement, and connection, plus a call to the caregiver when it’s needed.
Daily routines & reminders
Medication, appointment, hydration, meal & movement reminders — by voice or the caregiver app. Supports self-management of daily living (ADLs & IADLs).
Orientation & structure
Day, date, and time, plus a predictable daily rhythm — reducing confusion and supporting independence.
Help & reassurance
In Active mode, say “I need help” or “I fell” and Luka phones the caregiver. A check-in call if the day goes too quiet. Luka never calls 911.
Connection & engagement
Family voices through Luka, photos, music, and activities keep people connected and ease isolation.
No app, no buttons
Voice-first assistive technology — accessible with no smartphone, vision, or dexterity barrier.
Evidence for funding
The caregiver app + Impact Portal document daily-living outcomes for HCBS and reimbursement pathways.
Stay in touch — safely
Messages and video & voice calls between Luka and the family’s caregiver app — and between friends who both have a Luka. No phone to find or hold, and nobody gets through unless the family approves them.
Messages, read aloud
Family texts from the caregiver app and Luka reads it aloud. Your loved one answers just by talking — “Message Katherine, I’d love to come.” Luka reads it back before sending.
Video & voice calls
Luka never answers on its own — it asks first: “Your granddaughter is calling. Would you like to answer?” A double tap on the screen ends the call.
Luka to Luka
Friends and relatives who both have a Luka send spoken messages and call each other — no phone needed. Connected with a one-time code both families agree to.
Safe circle
Only people the family approves can reach Luka — no strangers, no spam, no scam calls. Quiet hours and blocking, right in the app.
For providers and case managers
Luka supports the functional goals named in HCBS waiver and AT-Act service definitions — increasing independence and reducing reliance on in-person staff. Pricing and reimbursement pathways are on eldercarerobotics.net.
