Quil Offers Voice-Enabled Quil Assure

Quil, the healthcare joint venture of Comcast NBCUniversal and Independence Health Group, introduced Quil Assure, a platform for seniors connecting them with their caregivers and loved ones. It will include ambient sensors, voice-activated technology, integrated emergency assistance, and caregiver coordination tools and resources.

Over time, Quil Assure will integrate with the company's existing consumer engagement platform, Quil Engage, to deliver a comprehensive solution that helps individuals and their caregivers manage every aspect of health and wellness.

"Today, few solutions exist to monitor the health of our loved ones at home. Consumer health platforms fall short of delivering on the promise of engagement; wearable monitoring technologies are limiting; and caregivers are often left in the dark," said Quil CEO Carina Edwards in a statement. "Quil is re-thinking the whole aging-at-home experience with an integrated platform that fits into our daily lives. Personalized education and step-by-step guidance to engage consumers and caregivers combined with in-home smart sensors to monitor health in real-time are just the beginning."

The Quil Assure platform will get to know user behavior over time through ambient sensors that monitor activity and send real-time alerts if there is a deviation from normal patterns. Voice-enabled capabilities will allow caregivers and family members to reach out through an in-home speaker.

Quil plans to launch Quil Assure to consumers by the third quarter of 2021 following a series of pilots beginning this December.
