Tokyo, week two 🇯🇵
A care home living lab, a research team at TMIG, 40 people at Nichii Gakkan, a newspaper interview and an investor meeting.
Two weeks ago we barely knew anyone in Japan. Now we have a study to plan and people waiting for us to come back in November.
Konnichiwa!
Last week, Amical exhibited in Asia for the first time, at H.C.R. 2026 in Tokyo.
It's always amazing to see how well Amical works, no matter the distance or the country.
Two birds, one stone 🧪 Amical is proud to be selected twice in the same envisAGE cohort: PAIR+ turns daily check-in calls to seniors living alone into real conversations (also selected by AVISÉ), and a long-term care study will test how our AI detects critical events.
Today, for National Seniors Day, we were at @AGEWELL_NCE's AgeTech Discovery Day at @Mila_Quebec in Montréal.
The idea: bring seniors into the conversation about the tech being built for them. Many picked up our phone and gave us their honest take.
There was even Zumba 💃
Second year in a row 🩷
Amical is once again one of Canada's Top 100 AI Startups, selected by ALL IN from 330+ applicants.
Our goal: build the best voice companion for older adults living with cognitive decline, a niche big tech mostly ignores.
Thank you

Can robots and AI companions help seniors feel less alone? The robots are impressive, but complex and expensive. On the other hand, we went for cheap and simple with a phone!

You can now schedule calls with the Amical phone.
“Call Roger every day at 10am to remind him to take his medication.”
Choose the day, time, frequency and what Pauline says. The phone rings, Roger picks up, and our AI companion reminds him.
Here’s how to set it up👇

Wow! La @FMSQ nous ont fait un bel article sur Amical dans le blogue Persée, qui fait rayonner les projets d'innovation en Santé du Québec.
Qu'elle belle vitrine!
Comment l'IA peut améliorer la qualité de vie de nos aînés en résidence?
Un beau reportage sur l'utilisation d'Amical de @MarieEveTrudel1 et @iciradiocanada!
