Founder story
A product created from lived caregiving experience
Luka Bear began as a solution for my own father, who lives with Alzheimer's disease.
I needed a way to provide familiar reassurance, answer repetitive questions, support routines, and remain present when I could not physically be beside him. That personal solution developed into an assistive-technology platform for families, caregivers, and care communities.
