You can’t always be there, but CODA can.
Intelligent hands-free wellbeing system to support independent living.
Introducing UltraCall CODA - A smarter way to care
CODA is an intelligent hands-free wellbeing system designed to help families quietly support elderly or vulnerable people living alone. The intelligent sensors provide real-time insights into your loved one’s health and daily routines through an easy-to-use app. No cameras, no wearables, and no hassle. CODA stands for Check On Daily Activities.
Six Key Benefits of UltraCall CODA for Families
-
Pro-active, calm and effective
CODA provides real-time insight into a person’s overall wellbeing, not just their movements or vital signs. By spotting subtle changes early, families and carers can step in before small issues turn into major problems. It’s a preventative approach that’s calm, respectful, and far less stressful than emergency care.
-
Deeper caregiver connection
CODA helps families and professionals stay connected without constant worry or check-ins. Updates and insights are easy to share, so the responsibility doesn’t fall on one person. Time together becomes more about enjoying moments and building connection not just checking up.
-
Smart instant help when needed
CODA provides trusted alerts and intelligent calls for help that ensure a rapid, reliable response — without anyone needing to press a button. If something unusual is detected, you’ll receive an immediate notification so the right people can step in straight away. It’s peace of mind for families, knowing help is always within reach.
-
No cameras, no wearables, no hassle
CODA protects your loved one’s privacy while keeping life simple. There are no cameras, microphones, or wearable devices, just discreet sensors that work straight out of the box. No internet or phone connection is required in the home, and nothing about their daily routine needs to change.
-
Much more than a button
Unlike traditional devices that rely on panic buttons, CODA works quietly in the background with no action required. It’s designed for proactive, preventative care, spotting changes in wellbeing before they become emergencies. The result: loved ones stay independent for longer, and families can step in with confidence, not worry.

How CODA works: Simple, Smart & Stress-Free
-
Step 1. Set up CODA sensors
Unbox the sensors and place them on a shelf or hang them in the home. It’s simple and hassle-free. No internet or connections needed.
-
Step 2. Learn Daily Patterns
CODA uses AI to learn quickly what is normal. It detects abnormalities, events and calls, with no wearables or maintenance needed.
-
Step 3. Receive Notifications
Notifications are informative. Health state, activities and trends are just a touch away. The App allows you to be in touch and act early.
The CODA App
Look over Health and Trends
Trends are important changes to normal patterns of activity that indicate changing wellness. Health monitoring comes from analysis of sleep patterns, trips away from home, social engagement, cooking, and living room usage.
Understand Events
Notifications come from events out of the ordinary, such as ‘Kitchen not used today’ or ‘Not in the lounge when expected to be’. Through the CODA App, you can see if an event is a one-off occurrence or an emerging trend.
Emergency Call Response
You will be notified instantly if the person you are remotely caring for calls for help, so you can respond quickly and assist emergency services if they are required.
