Upper Austria

Digital care-tech platform for detecting daily activities based on electricity usage

The company is an Austrian care-tech firm that develops and markets a digital assistance platform designed to help older adults live longer, safer, and more independent lives in their own homes. The solution has been validated in the Austrian startup market and is currently used by approximately 20 paying households and about 40 test households. In addition, pilot projects have been implemented with social and healthcare institutions. The company thus has an established technological foundation and is on the verge of the scaling phase. The company develops and markets a digital assistance solution that enables older adults to live as long, safe, and independent a life as possible in their own homes while also providing relief to family members and caregivers. Using proprietary algorithms, the system analyzes a household’s electricity consumption patterns, learns individual daily routines from this data, and automatically notifies the designated contacts in the event of unusual deviations—without cameras, microphones, or wearables. The product combines passive safety at home (activity detection) with active safety on the go (emergency button). The product—comprising hardware, an IoT platform, and a native app (iOS/Android)—has been available on the Austrian startup market since May 2025 and has been technically and practically validated. As of August 2026, approximately 20 paying households and 40 test households are using the solution. Since the end of 2025, pilot and collaboration projects have also been underway with nursing and care organizations, including two established Austrian nursing and care organizations. Further scaling is to take place primarily through B2B2C partnerships with operators of assisted living facilities, nursing and social service organizations, emergency call service providers, energy suppliers, and insurance companies. Initial concrete inquiries have been received or are currently under negotiation. The majority shareholder is the venture subsidiary of an Austrian energy provider, holding 80% of the shares. As part of a strategic realignment of the group, it is selling this stake (share deal). The remaining shares are held by a venture unit of a digital agency (10%) and one of the co-founders (10%, founder shares). The management team is prepared to remain on board and continue driving operational scaling.To date, approximately €1.6 million in capital, including shareholder loans, has been invested in the company. The company is seeking a strategic buyer—for example, from the healthcare, health tech, telecommunications, or insurance sectors—or a family office; a supplementary earn-out is negotiable. The timeline calls for a prompt closing; initial contact is open—an NDA will be signed only upon further discussions.

Buying a company vs. buying a firm

Buying a company means acquiring an independent organizational unit that regularly carries out an economic activity. A company can consist of one or several business operations. An individual can also found such an independent unit if they regularly carry out an economic activity — in that case it is called a sole proprietorship. As a rule, sole proprietors don't have to register in the commercial register; without that registration, they don't legally count as a "firm." A trade name, colloquially a "firm," is the name under which a company or sole proprietor appears publicly and conducts its business. Buying "a firm" therefore technically means acquiring the company's name or trading name. In everyday use, though, it's used interchangeably with buying a company — i.e. acquiring the entire business.
