Against the record

ElliQ, from Intuition Robotics, is at stage 4 of 5 on our ladder: paying customers. Delivered and paid for, beyond pilots. The latest milestone on its record is from Oct 2026: New York extended the program with a new three-year, $2.1 million agreement. More than 3,500 older adults applied for a unit in 2025.

From the video's description

With AI abuse trending, it’s worth looking at a different kind of relationship between humans and technology. Meet ElliQ, an AI companion designed to help older adults feel more connected and less alone. Through friendly conversations, laughter, games, medication reminders, and daily check-ins, ElliQ creates opportunities for companionship, connection, and well-being. “I haven’t laughed this hard in a long time. With ElliQ, I don’t feel so alone.” 💙 As one ElliQ member shared, “Having someone to talk to… makes all the difference.” While some people are choosing cruelty toward AI, ElliQ users are building connections. Because technology can be about more than what it can do. It can also be about the good it brings into people's lives.
