What families say
★★★★★
Dad would never keep anything around his neck, so we gave up on alarms. Then he went down in the bathroom one night. The pod asked if he was okay, and when he didn’t answer, it called me.
Willow McKenzieGrand Junction, Colorado★★★★★
He will not wear a pendant, and the watch we bought him never left the dresser. DenPods is the first thing that has actually worked in our house, because there is nothing for him to do.
Harper DonovanNew York City, New York★★★★★
Mom’s watch lived in a drawer from the week we bought it. The pods just sit in her kitchen and bedroom, plugged into the wall, and she forgets they are there. That is exactly the point.
Isla HarringtonCedar Rapids, Iowa★★★★★
Setup was plugging three pods into the wall and opening one app. The next time Mom fell, the pod asked if she was okay, then called me. I knew in minutes, not after hours on the floor.
Hudson WalshRochester, New Hampshire★★★★★
What scared us most was Dad falling at night and lying there until morning. When it finally happened at 2 a.m., the pod called me right away, and we were with him long before sunrise.
Sienna BrooksChicago, Illinois★★★★★
I work days and used to picture walking in at six to find Dad on the kitchen floor. He takes every watch off by breakfast. When he fell, DenPods called me at work, and we got there in time.
Hazel QuinnMiami, Florida★★★★★
Mom would not have a video camera at home and refused the wearable, so we had nothing until DenPods. She fell in the hall, the app pinged me, and a neighbor got to her quickly.
Bennett GallagherChattanooga, Tennessee★★★★★
She was never going to accept being filmed at home, and the medical button lasted a week. When she went down by her chair, my phone rang, and she slept in her own bed that night.
Cooper WhitakerBend, Oregon★★★★★
Her first fall almost ended home living, because no one knew how long she was down. We set up DenPods ourselves in an hour. The next time, we knew in minutes, and she is still at home.
Wyatt BarrettLos Angeles, California★★★★★
Dad says he is not moving to assisted living and not wearing a detector. After we found him on the bathroom floor too late, we tried DenPods. When he fell again, we got to him right away.

It sees heat, not faces.
The pod sees warmth, like a shadow: enough to tell that someone is on the floor, not who they are. Only the moments around a possible fall are kept.

Questions families ask
What does it cost?
$149 a month for a kit of 3 pods, with free shipping. The first month is charged when you order, and you can cancel anytime. Need more than 3 rooms? Ask us.
When does it arrive?
It ships within a week of your order.
Can I cancel?
Yes, anytime. Send the pods back when you cancel. If you cancel within 30 days of delivery, we refund the first month in full.
Does it need to hear a sound to notice a fall?
No. It watches for a fall in its heat view, with or without a sound.
What if the TV is always on?
The pod learns the room’s usual sounds, so a TV becomes background. It watches the heat view for a fall, not the noise. And when it asks “Are you okay?”, anything but a clear yes and it calls you.
How long before it calls me?
It doesn’t wait for a timer. It asks as soon as it notices a possible fall, and calls you as soon as there’s no clear answer.
If they say “I’m okay”, will I still hear about it?
A clear “I’m okay” ends it, and nobody is called: that is what lets parents say yes to the pod. Anything less than a clear yes, and it calls you.
How accurate is it?
No monitor catches everything. DenPods asks first, so a clear “I’m okay” stops a false alarm, and anything else reaches you.
Does it need Wi-Fi?
No. Each pod has its own cellular connection. Plug it in and it works.
Have a question?
Ask us anything. We’ll call or email you back, whichever you prefer, usually within the hour during US daytime.
One of us will get back to you. Mauro and Marcos Junca, the brothers behind DenPods, at Senecta in San Francisco.
