TED #155 Podcast Extras – Cubigo

Cubigo Create your caring community for independent living. Easy to use, independent and secure platform for your device that can be used anywhere at any time. Your screen consists of buttons of Cubes that connect to the feature you need to use. It is currently marketed for B2B, Assisted Living and other facilities. The Cubigo system is divided into three sections that consist of Social Contact, Comfort Services and Self-Care. Social Contact is like any social media environment where you can connect with friends, family or caregivers securely including messaging, video, audio and other sharing. Comfort Services help you with everyday things like shopping, meals, transport, household assistance services and other things you may need for your independent living. Lastly Self-Care so you can have alarms, sensors, remote monitoring, automation and telemedicine, including connected devices and sensors. All this to keep you health and secure in your independent living situation.

I also had the pleasure of doing a video interview at the Aging2.0 AgeTech Expo in San Francisco that is attached to this posting. This was not a hands on review. A unique Elder app or system that you can put on your device and use anywhere. US, Belgium and Netherlands country selection from their website. It can be used for your Social communications or when or if you need it to stay independent use their Care services. Facilities can use their own devices and app customization in the future to fit their needs. I would give this a 4 out of 5 on my buy only because it is not available as app for personal use right now. They could have a version that would have useful services to anyone living independently with family, caregiver and physician support. Seems like they have thought about everything one might need and have good visual layout. Future customization with an API.
