Fallyx is building technology to protect seniors and support care staff by detecting falls, analysing patterns, and improving safety in care environments. After witnessing how preventable injuries disrupt lives and stretch care homes, the Fallyx team set out to create a reliable, affordable way to detect falls in real time and help prevent them over time. We believe safety and dignity in aging are non‑negotiable, and we work closely with seniors and care staff to deliver tools that actually fit into their daily lives. The Fallyx system combines wearable sensors, AI algorithms, and reporting tools to serve residents and staff in retirement homes and long‑term care. Our sensors collect movement and environmental data, our algorithms analyse it to detect falls and risks, and our dashboard produces actionable insights that staff can use to improve care. The technology is already live in retirement homes across Ontario and continues to evolve through pilots and feedback. Communities Served This project directly involves and impacts: - Seniors living in care homes - Care staff and administrators - Families of residents This project aligns with the following UN SDGs: - SDG 3: Good Health and Well‑being - SDG 9: Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure - SDG 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities Our impact is measured in lives made safer, staff time saved, and risks reduced. - Detects falls in real time and alerts staff faster than manual checks. - Helps staff analyze trends and take preventive action. - Gives families confidence that their loved ones are monitored and supported. - Reduces avoidable injuries and the costs associated with them. By combining technology with human care, we’re creating a safer, more dignified experience for aging Canadians.
