About Silvie

For the life you've made at home.

Silvie uses radar sensing for fall detection and activity monitoring at home, without cameras or anything to wear.

Your home reflects the life you've made, from the way you spend your mornings to the people you welcome in. We build Silvie for older adults living independently and the families who care about them.

Your home comes first

Bringing technology into your home is a personal choice. We believe you should understand how it works, have a say in using it and choose who is involved.

Clear information matters, from your first look at Silvie to the questions you ask before bringing it home.

Why we care

Our passion for healthcare and AgeTech has been part of Pontosense from the beginning. Silvie brings that commitment into the home, where technology needs to make sense in everyday life.

The experience behind Silvie

Silvie is built by Pontosense, a Canadian sensing technology company with a presence in 24 countries.

Pontosense's Silver Shield platform powers SafeGuard within Comfort Keepers' Comfort360 offering. Pontosense also partners with Assisting Hands to bring Silver Shield to its home-care network.

Silver Shield received the Red Dot Design Award 2025.
