A press for "I need someone now"
A small KBeacon BC021, worn as a pendant or kept by the chair. The box programs it itself, so there is nothing to set up, and it reports movement and stillness, battery level and temperature. Shipped 2 October 2026.
Household Wellbeing
A parent who lives alone. A relative getting frailer than they'll admit. HuZe is being built to learn the everyday rhythm that means they're alright, and if that rhythm breaks, to quietly make sure somebody knows. No cameras.
A day with HuZe watching
No cameras pointed at anyone. No panic-station dashboards. HuZe simply learns the small signals of a normal day: the kettle in the morning, the landing light at night, movement in the rooms that always have movement. When the ordinary doesn't happen, that means something.
A normal day, drawn as a 24-hour timeline. The landing light goes off at 23:10 the night before. The kettle is used at 07:05 and there is movement in the kitchen at 07:10, 12:20 and 18:15. The wearable beacon reports still overnight, moving from about 06:50, and still again from 23:10. The front door opens at 10:30.
The morning that does not start. The landing light went off at 23:10 last night. By 08:30 there has been no kettle use and no kitchen movement, and the wearable beacon is still reporting still, long past the usual wake-up. Huze notices at 08:30.
An illustration of the design. The moving, still and not-here signal is in beta on test boxes. The learned routine, check-in and escalation are in development.
More than a button
Pendant-alarm services are built around one moment: the person pressing the button. That matters, but the days that worry families most are the ones where nobody presses anything.

Each enrolled wearable reports whether the person is moving, still or not here, so the box has something to reason about. Running on test boxes.
HuZe learns what an ordinary day looks like for this household and flags "may be an issue" findings in plain words. In development.
The box checks in with the person first, then works down your list of contacts until someone acknowledges, and stands everyone else down. In development.
A short daily summary for the family, so no news can also be reassuring. In development.
There is nothing clinical to live with. The same box that runs the lights and heating does the looking out, invisibly. Independence is the point.
Still a smart home
Warmth on before they wake. Lights that come on ahead of the stairs at night. The caring home and the comfortable home are the same home. And because HuZe runs in the house, the watching carries on through a broadband outage.
Response service
For families who want one, we are working on an optional professional response service. If your list is ever exhausted, a professional picks it up.
Questions
No. HuZe does not use cameras. It works from simple signals from devices you choose to install: a kettle plug, a landing light, movement sensors and an optional wearable beacon.
A small KBeacon BC021 worn as a pendant or kept by the chair. The box programs it itself and records movement and stillness, battery level and temperature. A press means "I need someone now". It has been shipped on production boxes since 2 October 2026.
The beacon and its press are shipped. The aliveness signal, where each enrolled wearable reports moving, still or not here, is in beta on test boxes. The learned routine, the check-in with the person first, the escalation to your contacts and a daily digest are in development and marked Next.
No. HuZe sends notifications to the people you choose, from your own sensors. It is not a replacement for a professionally run alarm service, and in an emergency you should always call 999.
The watching happens on the box in the house, so it carries on through a broadband outage. The optional mobile-data plan lets the box reach the family during one.
