Frequently Asked Questions

How is Assist Buddy different from ride-hailing apps?

We provide human accompaniment—our buddy meets the elder inside the home, stays throughout the outing, and brings them back safely indoors.

Are your buddies trained?

Yes. We vet for empathy, reliability, and communication, and we train for safety awareness and elder sensitivity.

Can family get updates?

With permission, we send brief status updates (departed, arrived, returning).

What regions do you serve?

We are launching in select urban neighborhoods first and expanding progressively—join our waitlist on the Contact page.
