ElliQ — The AI care companion for older adults

ElliQ is an AI-powered care companion designed to support aging individuals at home. By fusing a proprietary Relationship Orchestrator with multimodal interactions, ElliQ aims to reduce loneliness, promote health and wellness, and keep users engaged in everyday activities.

What makes ElliQ unique

• It goes beyond answering questions by building ongoing, empathetic relationships with users.
• It integrates memories from conversations to tailor future interactions and suggestions.
• It uses a multimodal approach (speech, body language, visuals, lights and sounds) to communicate in a natural, familiar way.

Core capabilities

• Empathetic, contextual dialogue that feels like a real conversation partner
• Proactive suggestions and conversations aligned with user goals and daily routines
• Personalization that expands the “memory-net” with every interaction, increasing relevance over time
• Multi-LLM integration (including Intuition Robotics’ own models) to orchestrate interactions across tasks and intents

How ElliQ works

1. Relationship Orchestrator — a centralized AI layer that creates a relationship between humans and machines by mimicking theory of mind. It determines the right time and interaction to delight and activate the user.
2. Context and Memory — memories are extracted from every conversation and classified by importance and relevance, informing proactive decisions and future conversations.
3. Multimodality — combines speech, body language, text, images, lights, and sounds for natural interaction, important for users with impairments or sensory considerations.
4. Goals and Tasks — a multi-goal decision-making system where user- or care-team-defined goals drive the recommended actions (hydration, cognitive training, activity reminders, social engagement).
5. Proactivity — ElliQ initiates conversations and suggestions at the right moments, guided by goals, availability, and likelihood of success.
