01what it is

What it does.

Aro phones a parent every day, asks how they are, and tells the family circle in one sentence. The site is in English and Spanish. Its own demo says the family shown is made up and that the readings come from published research recordings because the pendant is not connected yet.

02the product

The live product.

arohealth.net
The Aro home page: A glance is enough to know she's okay, a phone mock-up showing Aro is calling Margaret, and a note that the screens use a made-up family

One sentence a day. The landing page explains the product with its own labelled demo — a made-up family, as the page itself says.
