This app is for you — and the family who loves you.

Sarah — an AI voice, not a real person — visits you up to three times a day on the phone you already own. Your family reads a few warm sentences about how it went, and your stories grow into a life story they keep.

One price, one product. What it costs.

The senior app

Simple buttons. Clear voice. No fuss.

It goes on the phone you already own. Big buttons, nothing to manage, no accounts to keep track of. Sarah visits up to three times a day — morning, afternoon and evening — and next time she remembers what you said.

  • Talk To Sarah

    Your phone rings the way it always does and you answer it the way you always do. She tells you what day it is — and what the weather is doing, once your family has added your town — asks how you slept, and wants to hear about your day. There is nothing to learn.

  • Your Life Story

    The stories your family loves are the easiest to lose. Sarah asks about your life one gentle question a visit, across eight chapters from childhood to today — where you met your spouse, what your mother's kitchen smelled like. She builds each story over a few visits, and each one becomes a page of your life story in your own words. If you turn recording on, the page carries a clip of you telling it. Your family watches the book fill in, and the Family Admin keeps the book and the clips, even after the subscription ends. It is yours: skip any question you'd rather not answer, and write to support@guardiansarah.com to have any entry taken out, or all of it gone at once.

  • Music, Radio, Scripture, Audiobooks

    Big buttons on your home screen: your station, classical music, an audiobook, the Bible or the Qur'an. One tap and it plays. No limit, no extra charge, no accounts to manage.

  • Games

    Solitaire and a daily word game, made gentler: big cards, no timers, no losing. A quiet way to pass twenty minutes between visits.

  • Reminders

    Short, calm reminders for the things you want to remember. Tell her about Thursday's appointment or your grandson's birthday and she will bring it up. You choose what she reminds you about, and so can the family you invited.

The family app

A quiet way to stay close, without intruding.

A second app, for you. Your parent sets up their own account and invites you into it — and they can have your access ended at any time by asking us. You never see a live call and you are never sent an alert.

  • Recap

    A short summary after each of Sarah's visits: what they talked about, how they seemed, how long they spoke. A few warm sentences about the neighbor's dog or the story they told — not a health report, and nothing in it to score or track.

  • What They Asked For

    If your parent mentions they are out of something — toothpaste, stamps, a birthday cake for Sunday — it lands on a little list in your app, waiting for whoever visits next. No alert, no urgency. You see it when you open the app, tap "I can bring this", and it is handled. The same goes for a message they give Sarah for you: she notes it, and it is waiting the next time you open the app.

  • Notes

    Leave simple notes for Sarah to read aloud — appointments, reminders, encouragement. She opens with "A message from your family…" No app for them to open, no button for them to find.

  • Their Life Story

    Too many family stories are lost too soon: how they met, the town they grew up in, the first job, the bad winter. Sarah asks about their life one question a visit, across eight chapters from childhood to today. Sarah builds each story over several calls, and each one becomes a page retold in their own words — with a clip of them telling it, if they turned recording on. You watch the book fill in, chapter by chapter, and the Family Admin keeps the book and the clips, even after the subscription ends. You can share a story with the rest of the family by link. Your parent decides what to tell her and can skip any question; anything already saved can be removed here by the family admin, or by asking us.

  • What You Will Never Get

    No live listening. No "she sounded off today". Sarah is not a safety service — if a visit is missed, the app simply shows it the next time you look, and nobody is paged. No alerts of any kind — nothing routine, and nothing urgent either. If something is wrong, call 911 — Sarah cannot.

What we promise

No Cameras

Sarah never sees you. She is voice only, her microphone is open during your call and never between calls, and recording is off unless you turn it on yourself.

You Decide

You choose what she can do, who joins your family circle, and what they see. Delete a recording at any time; to delete everything at once, ask us and we do it. To remove someone, ask us and we cut their access. Cancel any time.

Not Medical

No live listening. No "she sounded off today". Sarah is not a medical device and not a safety device — she cannot detect a fall and cannot call anyone for you. In an emergency, call 911. In a crisis, call or text 988.

She's An AI

Sarah is a computer voice, not a real person. She says so on your first call, and again any time you ask. She will never claim to be human.

Guardian Sarah, your questions answered.

Read every question on its own page →

What is Guardian Sarah?
An app for the phone you already own. Sarah is an AI voice who visits up to three times a day — morning, afternoon and evening — and talks with you, and remembers it next time. She gives you the reminders you asked for and writes a short recap for the family members you invite. The app has big buttons for music, radio, audiobooks and scripture, plus solitaire and a daily word game.
Do I need to download an app, or does Sarah just call my phone?
There is an app, and you only set it up once. After that you never have to open it to talk to Sarah — she reaches you by ringing your phone the way any call rings, and you answer with one tap. Music, radio, audiobooks, games and reminders all live in that same app, on the phone you already own. There is no separate device to buy and nothing else to operate.
Is Sarah a real person?
No. Sarah is an artificial-intelligence voice — a computer, not a human being. She says so out loud on your first call, and she will say it again any time you ask her. She will never claim to be a person. Nobody at Guardian Sarah listens to your calls while they are happening.
Does she sound robotic?
Not the flat, automated voice you get from a phone tree. Sarah uses modern AI text-to-speech that pauses, breathes and shifts tone the way a person talking does, and most people find her easy and pleasant to listen to. But she is still a computer voice, not a human being — a careful listener can usually tell within the first minute or two, and we are not going to pretend otherwise. She says as much herself, out loud, before anything else.
Is this a medical or safety device?
No. Guardian Sarah is a family-connection app. It gives no medical advice, cannot detect a fall, cannot summon help, and cannot hear you between calls. In an emergency, hang up and call 911. If you are in emotional distress, Sarah will stop what she is doing and give you 988, the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline — she cannot call them for you, so she will ask you to.
Are my calls recorded?
Only if you turn recording on yourself — it is off to begin with. If you turn it on, Sarah announces at the start of every call that it is being recorded, and that announcement cannot be switched off. She cannot stop a recording once a call has begun — but you can end the call at any time, and write to support@guardiansarah.com to have recording turned off so nothing further is saved. Everyday call recordings delete themselves after 30 days, Story tab keepsakes can be deleted one at a time by the family admin in the family app, and all saved audio for a person can be deleted at once by asking us. Deleted means gone. There are no cameras.
What does my family see?
Only the people you invite, and only a short written recap of what you talked about — plus recordings, if you turned recording on. They cannot listen to a live call. You can have anyone removed from your family circle at any time — removing someone is not yet a button in the app, so email support@guardiansarah.com and we cut their access. We do not sell your information and we do not use your conversations to train AI models.
What does it cost, and how do I cancel?
Sarah is ready right away, with no payment needed to begin. When you are ready, subscribe to Sarah's plan in the app through Apple or Google — the first 14 days are free, and nothing is charged until day 15. After that it is $39.99 a month, or $399.99 a year (about two months free), billed by Apple or Google through the app. One price, one product — there will be no special-offer pressure and no deadline. You cancel any time in your Apple or Google account settings, not with us. If it is not for you, ask Apple or Google for a refund — they decide, and we won't object.
My parent isn't good with technology. Can I set it up for them?
Whoever is paying sets up the subscription on their own phone, in the app, through the Apple App Store or Google Play — not on this website. The person who is going to use it sets up their own account on their own phone. We will not start it for someone who has not agreed to it — if they are not sure, the whole thing waits. After that there is nothing to operate: the phone rings and they answer it. If a family member ever tells us the person who signed up did not understand what it was, ask Apple or Google for a refund — they decide, and we won't object.

Write to a person before you talk to Sarah.

One of the two of us reads it — not a queue, not a bot. Ask anything, including what it costs and how to stop it.
