Privacy-First Edge AI

Care that respects dignity.

Careat builds edge AI devices that protect the people you love — without compromising their privacy. No cloud. No surveillance. No compromise.

Safety without a camera in the bathroom.

Our radar-based fall detection device monitors movement and detects falls — including in private spaces — without ever capturing an image. Your parent's dignity is non-negotiable.

Radar detection — no images captured
Our Safety Promise

RAGI — The constitution governing every Careat device.

Every Careat product runs under RAGI (Reverent Artificial General Intelligence) — a constitutional framework that makes defined classes of harm architecturally unreachable. Not a policy. Not a guideline. A hard constraint.

Principle 01
Alignment by Existence
Agents only exist within non-bypassable constitutional bounds. Harmful behavior isn't prevented — it's architecturally unreachable.
Principle 02
Integrity Over Existence
If continuation would require violating the constitution, the system dissolves. No emergency override. No exceptions. Integrity is superior to survival.
Principle 03
Boring, Temporary, Forgetful
Agents are narrow in scope, time-bounded, and memory-limited. They cannot accumulate identity, authority, or persist beyond their mandate.
सत्यमेव जयते — Truth alone triumphs. RAGI is named Reverent because reverence, non-domination, and truth are not features. They are the constitution itself.

RAGI also takes its name from finger millet — a grain that survives drought, poor soil, and harsh conditions, while still nourishing those who depend on it. Like the grain, this framework is designed to sustain under stress. Not despite adversity, but because of how it was built.

Built on a simple belief: care shouldn't cost dignity.

Careat was founded by Siva Addanki, who spent years thinking about what happens when AI becomes powerful enough to change everything — and what we need to do now to make sure it changes things for the better.

RAGI (Reverent Artificial General Intelligence) is the constitutional framework Siva developed over three years — a specification for how AI systems should be bounded, governed, and constrained. Every Careat product is built to RAGI standards.

Philosophy
Why we named our AI safety framework after a grain
Ragi (finger millet) survives drought, poor soil, and harsh conditions — and still nourishes. That's exactly what a constitutional AI framework needs to do.
Privacy
Radar vs cameras: why we chose to see without seeing
Fall detection in bathrooms requires a fundamental rethink of what "sensing" means when dignity is non-negotiable.
Edge AI
Why data that never leaves the device is the only real privacy
Cloud processing means your data is always one breach away from exposure. Edge AI is not a feature — it's a commitment.
