Support today lives behind a screen, in an app, in a therapy room, on a schedule. The hardest moments do not wait for any of those. COTIS does not.

Why we built it

You can't be there for every hard moment. Now something can.

The hallway. The lunchroom. The bus ride home. The moments that overwhelm a kid are the exact moments a parent isn't there. COTIS gives them a steady, private voice to lean on, so they can move through the hard moment on their own and tell you about it after.

Worn on the body. No screen to disappear into. There the instant it's needed.

Meet COTIS

A companion, not another screen.

COTIS is a small device worn on the body, paired with a companion app for parents. It listens to the moment a child is in, understands it, and responds in real time. No phone to find. Nothing to unlock.

  • Reads the room. Conversation, tone, and surroundings, understood as they happen.
  • Lives on the body. Discreet, hands-free, and ready the instant a child reaches for it.
  • One simple dial. Volume turns up or down with a physical dial on the device. No menus, no app, no settings to dig through.
  • A light you can read. One indicator shows power and battery, glows in the color of whatever button is active, and lights up plainly whenever COTIS is listening, so a child and a parent always know.
  • Private by design. On-device processing where it matters, with data you control.

Power

It charges while they play.

A flexible solar cell is built into the face of COTIS. Through the day, outside at recess or by a sunlit window, it tops up the battery in the background. You still charge it, just far less often, and a dead device is far less likely to be the reason a child is left without support.

For parents
Less charging to remember

Daylight extends each charge, so the device is ready when your child reaches for it, not dead in a drawer.

The technology
Flexible thin-film photovoltaics

Lightweight, bendable solar laminated to the housing, the same class of cell driving the next wave of wearable power.

Honest by design
Solar-assisted, not solar-only

Sunlight extends runtime; it does not replace charging. We would rather tell you that than overpromise.

How it works

The whole device is three buttons.

No menus, no apps, no learning curve. A child presses the button that matches the moment, and COTIS responds out loud, in their ear. That's the entire interface.

Make it yours

Pick the strap that feels like you.

Every COTIS is the same smart device inside. The outside is yours. Animals, space, rainbows, robots, your favorite snacks, swap the strap whenever you want a new look.

A small choice that matters. When a kid picks their own strap, the device becomes theirs, something they want to wear, not something they have to. One titanium device, straps that grow with them.

Connectivity & safety

Built for parents. Approved by schools.

Standalone 5G. No phone required. The accountability layer that makes IEP and 504 approval realistic, and gives every kid a little more independence while you stay in the loop.

  • LOCATION + SOS
    Help is one tap away

    Real-time location for parents. One-touch emergency SOS to family and 911.
