Matt wanted his Mom to hear from her four sons and thirteen grandchildren daily! She needed a simple and direct way to communicate, ask for assistance, and conveniently interact with her grandchildren.
Screens and phones are complex for her. Amazon Alexa and Speak2 Family remove this barrier. The entire family can watch out for her and help her with her requests. It keeps her as the family centerpiece, just like she always was.
This need is the basis for my conversation with Jillian Guerra, the Chief Difference Maker of Speak2Family. Their app works with Alexa, providing messaging, activities, reminders, community support, and more. The user can tell Alexa when they need assistance, and the app alerts family or community staff.
