HOW CLARITY COMPARES

The wearable built for senior living, not for step counts.

Clarity captures continuous heart, breathing, sleep and movement signal on every resident who wears it, and puts it in your care team's hands. Here is how that differs from the other tools senior living communities already consider.

01 · VS. CONSUMER SMARTWATCHES

Built for your care team, not for a personal phone.

Consumer wearables are designed for one person looking at their own app. Clarity is designed for a community managing many residents. Your team sees every resident’s trends in one dashboard, is flagged when someone stops wearing their device, and never has to set up a personal smartphone account for a resident.

Your data, not a black box.
Consumer devices hand you scores. Clarity gives you the underlying signal, so your clinical team, analytics partners and EHR can use it however you need.
Resident compliance is visible.
The platform tracks who is wearing the device and who isn’t, so gaps get caught in hours, not weeks.
Built to integrate.
Open APIs connect to EHR and EMR systems and the tools you already run.
Priced for a whole community.
One community agreement, with no individual consumer subscriptions to manage.
Less charging, less hassle.
Long battery life between charges, so there is no nightly charging ritual for residents or staff.
02 · VS. ROUTINE-TRACKING WEARABLES

Know how residents are doing, not just what.

Routine-tracking wearables are built around behavior: meals, bathroom trips, walks, sleep. Clarity is built around the body. It reads heart rate, heart rate variability (how the time between heartbeats shifts), breathing and sleep, beat by beat, around the clock. Routines can change after the body already has, so your care team gets an earlier warning, and the data belongs to you.

Clarity does not include fall detection, a call button or location tracking today. *Pending FDA clearance.

Your data, your tools.
Export raw and processed signal, or connect it to your EHR, analytics or AI tools through open APIs.
Designed to be worn with pride.
Clarity looks like the leading biometric wearables people already choose for themselves, not a medical alert band. Residents wear something that feels current, not a daily reminder of age.
Measured against their own normal.
Every reading is compared to that resident’s own 30-day baseline, so a quiet resident and an active one are each judged fairly.
Beat-by-beat heart insight.
Clarity analyzes every heartbeat, including patterns tied to how elastic the arteries are, not just an average pulse.
Built for gaps in wear.
Trends are built over days and weeks, so a missed afternoon does not break the picture, and the dashboard shows who is not wearing it.
A calmer view for families.
Families can see how their loved one is doing, not just where they have been, without calling the desk.
Fits alongside safety systems.
Keep the call and safety tools you rely on. Clarity adds a layer of health signal underneath them.
03 · VS. IN-ROOM SENSORS

Care that leaves the room with the resident.

Room sensors watch a room. Clarity stays with the resident: in the dining hall, on a walk, at an activity or visiting family. It measures what a wall sensor can’t reliably see, like heart rhythm trends, heart rate variability and overnight recovery, to help your team spot decline earlier.

No expensive install project.
In-room systems mean hardware, wiring and installation in every apartment, which is costly and slow to roll out. Clarity is one device per resident, live the day it is worn.
Physiology, not just motion.
In-room systems see movement. Clarity measures what is happening inside the body.
No cameras, no images.
Nothing is recorded visually, which matters to residents and families uneasy about devices in private spaces.
Works alongside fall detection.
Already using in-room sensors? Clarity adds health trends to the safety net you have.
04 · VS. SOFTWARE-ONLY PLATFORMS

Better predictions start with better data.

Software that predicts risk from charting and staff notes can only see what someone wrote down. Clarity creates a continuous, first-party stream of resident health data, around the clock, without adding a task to your staff’s day.

New signal, not reshuffled records.
Continuous data fills the gaps between shift notes and monthly assessments.
No extra documentation.
Data is captured passively while residents go about their day.
Feeds the AI you already use.
Open APIs send validated signal into your existing analytics and prediction tools.

*Pending FDA clearance.

**Clarity looks at trends over days and weeks, so missed hours or a night on the charger don’t break the picture. The dashboard flags non-wear so staff can follow up.

***Depends on what the software reads. Tools built on charting keep working. Tools that rely on a device feed are only as complete as that feed.

QUESTIONS WE HEAR

The honest answers.

Apart from the cost, consumer smartwatches are built for one person and one phone. Clarity is built for a care team managing a whole community, with adherence tracking, a shared dashboard and data your organization owns and can connect to your systems.

Pilot communities pay nothing. We provide the devices, the monitoring software and the onboarding for the length of the pilot.
