A clinical companion app for post-discharge patients — plain-language recovery plans, daily check-ins, and a research program investigating whether voice can provide an earlier signal of deterioration.
No account needed — open the demo and tap Demo doctor or Demo patient to sign in.
Every year, hundreds of thousands of patients survive surgery, then quietly deteriorate at home. Discharge is a "send and pray" event. Within hours, patients forget much of their instructions — studies report 40–80% of medical information is forgotten immediately (Kessels, J R Soc Med, 2003). Most apps assume health literacy that recovering patients (elderly, medicated, exhausted) simply do not have.
The result: roughly one in six patients is readmitted within 30 days (Jencks et al., NEJM 2009). Not because surgery failed. Because the safety net collapsed the moment they walked out the door.
Supported without being overwhelmed. 15 seconds a day, nothing more. No forms. No login battles. No "is this serious?" guessing.
Act only when an alert fires. No routine call-arounds. No burnout admin. The dashboard tells you exactly which patient needs you, and why.
Stop absorbing avoidable readmission costs. Free up beds. Comply with national post-discharge policy, measurably.
Most remote-monitoring platforms are cloud-heavy, English-only, hardware-dependent, and built for US private insurance. Tether is designed from the first line of code for Nordic public healthcare.

The moat is not a single feature. It is a stack of decisions that competitors cannot copy quickly.
For Nordic hospitals, regional health authorities, and insurers. We will set up a 30-minute call to walk through the engine, the dashboard, and a pilot proposal tailored to your operating context.
