How it works

Quietly aware, so you don't have to worry.

VAKT Home uses small plug-in nodes and a hub to notice movement and stillness around the home. It doesn't see or record anyone, and there's nothing for your loved one to wear or remember.

What's in the box

A hub, two nodes, and everything to plug them in.

The starter kit covers the rooms that matter most, like the bedroom and the living room.

  • The hub

    Sits anywhere with power. It creates a private network for the nodes and sends simple updates to the app over your home internet.

  • Two nodes

    Small and discreet. Each one plugs into an outlet in the room it looks after, and your loved one can call for help by voice from any room with a node.

  • The VAKT Home app

    For you, on your phone. Download it for iPhone or Android using the QR code in the box.

Getting set up

From box to peace of mind.

  1. Scan the QR code

    It's on the box. It takes you to the app, then walks you through signing in and choosing your plan.

  2. Plug in the hub

    Find a central spot with power. The app shows you when the hub is connected.

  3. Plug in a node in each room

    Every node sets up the same way. Plug it in, then tell the app which room it's in, like "Bedroom" or "Living room".

  4. Let it settle in

    Over the first few days VAKT Home gets to know the usual rhythm of the home, so it can tell you when a day looks different.

What VAKT Home notices

The everyday, and the moments that matter.

Movement

When someone is up and about, and which room they're in.

At home

Whether the home looks occupied and settled.

Rest

When they head to bed and how the night went.

Alerts

A fall, no movement for longer than usual, or a call for help by voice sends an alert to your phone.

Why VAKT Home

A gentler way to look out for someone.

VAKT Home is a wellness and activity monitor, not a medical device, and it doesn't replace emergency services. In an emergency, call 911.
