We help people do what's good for them.
Humanitybots combines behavioral science with software and hardware that shows up in real life, so the things people intend to do actually get done.
Knowing what to do and doing it are different problems.
Most people know they should take the medication, call the parent, move more, drink less, sleep earlier, and speak up sooner. They just don't. Not because they don't care, but because life is loud, decisions are heavy, and the next moment is always urgent.
This is not a failure of willpower. It is a design problem. And design problems can be solved.
Software understands.
AI applications, voice systems, and platforms that read context, guide decisions, and carry the emotional load of everyday life.
Hardware acts.
IoT safety devices, assistive systems, and wearable robotics that reach into the physical world when intelligence alone isn't enough.
Neither layer is the hero. The behavior is.
Products for the days people actually live.
We build consumer-led products for caregiving, everyday health, and livelihoods — designed around the person holding the phone, not the slide about them.
- OneSelf — family caregivers of people living with dementia. Cleo, the AI guide, organizes the work, the stages, and the stress, so they can reclaim a life.
- Dinner Roulette — better meals for people living with heart disease, diabetes, and obesity. Every spin is a healthier recipe. Track food. Match sugar trends.
- Jiji — an elder sister in the pocket of rural women in north India. Saving, investment, money, and a first business, in Hindi, on the phone they already have.
Software alone can't catch a fall, or help someone walk again.
Our assistive robotics line extends Humanitybots into the physical world. In the near term: IoT devices for safety and daily living, fall detection, location-aware wearables, smart locks, medication dispensers, stove cutoffs.
Our flagship hardware ambition is mobility. We are building spring-assisted and motorized exoskeletons, lightweight wearable suits inspired by the assistive devices now being rented at Chinese mountain parks and sold in Shenzhen tech stores. Designed for older adults, post-stroke recovery, and anyone whose body needs a little help to keep up with their life.
Frontier technology for the world’s hardest problems.
Technology and global development have largely evolved apart. The best technologists build for the privileged. The people who understand development best are rarely technologists.
Foundry is where they meet. We build AI products, program tools and field systems for health, education, climate, equity and livelihoods — designed for real people, tested in the field, and built to scale.
A small team with a specific belief.
We believe the most useful thing technology can do is help people do what they already want to do. There is a gap between what people intend and what they actually do. For caregivers, older adults, and those navigating illness or transition, that gap is where lives fall apart.
Healthcare optimizes the patient and misses the person sustaining care. Software companies build features and measure engagement. Hardware companies ship specs and count units. We treat behavior change itself as the product — using software, hardware, or the right combination to make it real.
Behavior first, technology second.
We define the change before we pick the tools.
Depth over surface area.
We would rather ship one product that matters than ten that don't.
Clinical seriousness, human tone.
We take the science seriously. We don't take ourselves too seriously.
We are a team of behavioral scientists, researchers, system architects, and software and hardware engineers. Our founders bring decades of experience from leading global companies and non-profits, combining deep real-world insight with a strong instinct for building innovative, impactful solutions.
