Company
A product company, based in Bolzano.
Home4MeAi SRL is an Italian innovative startup. We use artificial intelligence and IoT devices to give autonomy back to people with hearing, sight or language difficulties: an ecosystem that makes spoken conversation readable, at home and outside it.
Philosophy
Disability happens when the interaction between a person and society breaks down.
Our relationship with society runs through the senses: hearing, speaking, seeing, touching. When that relationship breaks down, the result is exclusion — physical, cognitive, social.
We believe artificial intelligence, carried on board IoT devices, provides the tools to get past the communication limits that disability imposes.
Vision and mission
Why we exist, and what we build.
Vision
Solving real problems of autonomy, communication and accessibility. Straight away, with no complications: it is not the person who should adapt to the technology, it is the technology that should adapt to them.
Mission
Personalised assistive systems for the communication and the autonomy of people with a sensory disability, built on simple audio-visual interfaces and modules that adapt to different settings.
Assistive technology
Hardware and software for congenital or chronic disabilities, and equally for temporary or situational ones. Not exercises in style: concrete, modular answers that work from the first minute.
