Rhem Labs Debuts First Home Health Robot for Elderly Care

Tech14 days ago

Founder Jacob Shenn and his father are accepting preorders for a personal assistant robot designed to help aging individuals maintain their independence. The device, called Rhem, uses voice commands to allow users to make calls, book appointments, manage reminders, and access online services. A companion app enables family caregivers to monitor the user's health readings and daily routines, though the parent controls which specific data is shared with the family.

The founders developed the technology based on nearly 20 years of experience caring for a grandmother and aunt at home, aiming to detect health changes that often go unnoticed between professional check-ins. The launch of Rhem Labs on October 6 received public amplification from Y Combinator and investor Garry Tan.
