Ato AI

Ato is a screen-free AI companion designed to help older adults stay connected, supported, and engaged while giving families greater peace of mind. Founded by Juan Cereigido and Gaspi Habif, who were inspired by the challenges their grandparents faced with technology, the brand develops a voice-first home device that is simple to use and built for seniors and their families. Ato is assembled in San Francisco and designed in Buenos Aires.

The Ato device supports natural conversations, daily check-ins, medication and appointment reminders, voice messages and calls, radio, web answers, news, weather, and brain games. It works with a family app for sending messages, setting reminders, managing the device remotely, and viewing activity reports. Ato supports more than 50 languages and receives remote software updates. The company also offers an optional paid membership with unlimited conversations and added features, plus tailored services for senior living, healthcare, and community organizations. Ato says conversations are private and personal data is encrypted.
