Empowering seniors to live independently with personalized smart home technology.
SafeStay Smart Home Solutions is a local service business dedicated to making homes safer and smarter for seniors. We provide end-to-end smart home automation—from initial in-home consultation and customized system design to professional installation and patient, step-by-step training. Our offerings include fall detection sensors, automated lighting, video doorbells, smart locks, voice-controlled assistants, and medication reminders, all integrated into a simple, intuitive interface. We focus on reliability and ease of use, ensuring seniors feel confident and families gain peace of mind. With a $25,000 investment, we launch with a branded vehicle, initial inventory of top-tier devices, and a two-person crew. Revenue comes from equipment sales, installation fees, and recurring maintenance/support subscriptions. We build trust through partnerships with senior centers, home health agencies, and targeted social media campaigns reaching adult children. Our Certified Aging-in-Place Specialists (CAPS) differentiate us by addressing both the technical and human aspects of aging in place.
The 65+ population is rapidly growing, and over 90% prefer to age in place. Simultaneously, smart home tech has become more affordable and reliable, and the pandemic accelerated demand for remote caregiving solutions.
