Bella for elderly care
Every resident gets
their good morning.
Bella is an extra pair of hands for every shift: someone to talk to every day, video calls to the family, and paperwork that writes itself.
Built by people from

Someone to talk to,
every single day.
Keep every day engaging.
Bella reads aloud, plays the old songs, and runs the memory round. Daily, at each resident's pace.
Speak their mother tongue.
Conversation, stories, and songs in each resident's own language.
Bring the family close.
Video calls to the grandchildren, started by name. No tablet to figure out.
How Starlife works.
Deploy robot.
Bella arrives ready: built-in 5G, one power outlet, no IT project. At 20 kg, any staff member can move her.
Connect operator.
Not autonomous: a trained, vetted operator sees, hears, and speaks through her. Live, logged, and never with body contact.
Care begins.
Bella greets residents by name, runs the day's activation, joins the quality round, and logs what she sees.
A real person, at eye level.
Call the family, just say the word.
Technology should not be a hurdle. One sentence to Bella and the video call with the grandchildren is running: no tablet, no menus, no waiting for help. The care team can look in through the same screen between rounds.
Play, read aloud, share memories.
The daily activation: the newspaper read aloud, the memory quiz, a round of checkers. Always in each resident's mother tongue, and Bella remembers yesterday's conversation.
Follow the exercises, together.
Seated mobility, arms up, ten slow repeats. Bella demonstrates on her display and counts along, at each resident's pace.
Let the paperwork write itself.
Half of every shift disappears into paperwork. Bella turns what she sees and hears into structured, audit-proof entries. Your staff confirm instead of typing.
A helping hand for housekeeping.
The two-armed Bella takes over the fetch-and-carry work: setting tables, clearing trays, tidying rooms. In development with care operators now, first deployments in Q4.
Frequently asked questions.
The questions care operators ask us first. The rest we'll cover on a quick call.
No. She takes the repetition: reading aloud, quiz rounds, documentation. Your staff keep the relationship. Care workers tell us she makes them better at their jobs, not redundant.
Never. No transfers, no washing, no physical support. By design, not by policy. Body contact stays with your care staff.
Acceptance comes from the person behind her: a real voice that greets first, remembers yesterday, and speaks the resident's language. Technology in care works with accompaniment. That's why every session has a human.
No. Bella supports communication, activation, and documentation inside today's care rules. Your staff deliver care.
EU deployments use a dedicated EU data plane for robot and live-session traffic. Supporting services and applicable transfer safeguards are documented in each deployment's privacy and data-processing terms.
Starlife. Product liability rests with us, and insurance is in place before the first deployment.
A full 8-hour shift on one charge, with a charging dock for the night.
She needs a power outlet and a day. 5G is built in. No IT project, no infrastructure changes.
