Someone who listens, every single day.
Koottu is a WhatsApp voice companion for your parents in Kerala. It speaks Malayalam, notices how they feel, reminds them about medicines, and keeps you informed – wherever you are in the world.
You can’t be there. But someone can.
Koottu fills the space between your calls.
As simple as a WhatsApp message.
Your parent gets a message
Every morning, Koottu sends a warm voice message in Malayalam – a gentle check-in, like a neighbour asking how the night was.
They reply in their own voice
No apps to learn. No passwords. They just reply on WhatsApp the way they always have – speaking naturally in Malayalam.
Koottu listens and understands
It hears how they feel, notes if something sounds off, and gently reminds them about medicines or upcoming appointments.
You get a daily summary
Each evening you receive a clear summary – mood, medication, anything worth knowing. Alerts come immediately if something needs attention.
Care that fits into their life, not the other way around.
Speaks Malayalam
Warm, natural Malayalam – not robotic translation. Your parents feel heard in their own language.
Notices how they feel
Koottu picks up on tone and mood. If amma sounds low or achan seems confused, you’ll know.
Medication reminders
Gentle spoken reminders for each medicine, at the right time. Confirms when they’ve taken it.
Appointment reminders
Doctor visits, lab tests, follow-ups – Koottu reminds them the day before and the morning of.
Daily summaries for you
A clear, readable summary every evening. No noise – just what matters.
Immediate alerts
If something sounds wrong, you get an alert right away. Not in the morning summary. Now.
The calls got easier.
Amma used to say she was fine even when she wasn’t. Now I get a summary every evening and I actually know. It changed everything.
Achan missed his tablets twice a week. Now Koottu reminds him and confirms. I haven’t worried about that in three months.
My mother doesn’t use smartphones. She uses WhatsApp on her basic phone. That’s it. Koottu works perfectly for her.
Less than a cup of coffee a day.
Cancel any time. No contracts.
