Astit is a daily companion designed to help families stay connected with elderly parents in India, especially when they live far apart. It uses voice-first check-ins in Hindi, Marathi and English, with no typing or ongoing login required for parents; a Family Code connects them to relatives. Families can view a Daily Pulse, receive alerts after two missed days, and use Confusion Check to get help understanding suspicious messages or other confusing information. Astit records what a parent chooses to share but does not provide medical advice, and it asks permission before health-related questions. Its approach emphasizes privacy, transparent family involvement and respect for parents’ independence.

The service is planned in family-focused tiers. Base includes daily check-ins, basic family sign-up and confusion resolution. Guardian Plus adds a weekly digest, instant alerts, and links for multiple parents and siblings in a shared Care Circle. A premium Concierge plan, described as coming in a future phase, is intended to add a named human concierge and in-person help for serious cases.
