The companion that keeps your loved ones active, healthy, and connected
With the elderly population doubling by 2050, PIX-E is the AI-powered robotic buddy that combats loneliness and promotes vitality through natural conversation and gentle activity guidance.
The Growing Crisis
Our aging population faces an unprecedented loneliness epidemic that directly impacts health and longevity.
By 2050
The elderly population will double, straining healthcare systems worldwide
Elderly Experience
Chronic loneliness, leading to rapid cognitive and physical decline
Prevention
Physical and social activity are proven to combat decline—but happen less with age
The Solution? Keep elders living independently at home, active and engaged.
But as social circles shrink and mobility decreases, staying active becomes increasingly difficult without support.
