Care is personal. So is connection.

A little curiosity.
A familiar favourite.
A moment together.

TESS brings more starting points for the moments that make a day feel like your own.

From a song that brings back a memory to a game shared with a visitor, TESS helps residents, families and care teams explore activities together.

Choose touch, a keyboard, a mouse or a stylus to find a comfortable way to take part, using compatible accessories.

Follow what interests you

Different ways to connect.
One place to begin.

Explore the available activities in a demo. Features, content and compatibility vary by app release and plan.

Conversation & AI chat

Prompts and conversation to explore together. AI can get things wrong; use it for engagement, never as clinical advice.

Communication & signs

Explore communication tools and sign-based activities with support suited to the person. These do not replace a qualified interpreter.

Games & discovery

Choose an activity that matches the person’s interests, energy and preferences. Enjoy taking part without pressure to perform.

Reminiscence

Make room for familiar subjects, shared stories and the experiences that matter to someone.

Radio & entertainment

Listen, watch and share favourites. Available services depend on connectivity, location and any third-party accounts or licences.

Shared participation

Use TESS alongside the person, a family member or an activity coordinator. Let their choices lead the experience.

A little more detail

Your TESS questions.

How do we choose the right TESS setup?

Book a demonstration so we can understand who will use TESS, how it will fit into everyday care and whether personal, shared or resident-dedicated use is appropriate.

Is TESS a medical treatment?

TESS is presented here as an engagement and communication experience. We do not claim it diagnoses, treats or prevents any condition. Activities should be chosen around individual preferences and support needs.

Can we use TESS in a care home?

TESS is designed with shared and supported use in care settings in mind. Ask us about device management, hygiene instructions, account permissions and shared-device use before ordering for your organisation.

Can I try it before buying?

Yes—request a free demonstration and tell us who will be using TESS. We can discuss the activities, interaction options and requirements relevant to your setting.

Do I need an internet connection?

Online features, downloads and streaming require a suitable internet connection. Ask us to confirm any offline activities in the current app release.

A conversation is a good start
