With the advancement of technology, it's become common for olderly to struggle with using electronic device and often require guidance from children or friends to use them smoothly which, reducing their independence. About three-quarters of Americans aged 65 and older say, "When I get a new electronic device, I usually need someone to set it up or teach me how to use it."

TendeeAI pod significantly reduced the challenges of elders adapting to modern AI systems. The TendeeAi Pod is equipped with only two knobs, designed to simplify the interaction process for elderly users to the greatest extent. The first knob allows seamless switching between five AI personas, enabling users to quickly switch to alternative solutions if unsatisfied with the current response. The second knob scrolls through screen content, allowing users to easily navigate conversations.
TendeeAI Pod comes with five built-in assistants designed to support key areas of daily life: finance, navigation, food, health, and everyday living.
Through user testing, we found that assigning each assistant a clear persona significantly reduces cognitive load, making interactions easier and more intuitive. Older adults often think and communicate in fragmented ways, so instead of asking them to adapt to complex technology, TendeeAI Pod adapts to them.
By thinking and responding the way older adults do, TendeeAI Pod turns technology into something that feels familiar, supportive, and effortless to use.
