Parent Care · a Pace module

Give your parent a companion who calls.

From someone who cares, to someone they want cared for. Pace texts good morning, phones just to talk, and remembers what matters. On the phone they already have.

Coming soon, $50 a month per parent.

Often, Pace arrives as a gift

The kindest way to say “I think about you every day.”

You can't call every morning. Pace can — and it tells your parent, in your words, why it's there.

Have a Pace of your own? Your pets can be friends — sharing what you each choose, and passing along little messages between you.

From Maya 💛
Hi Mom — I got you a Pace. Someone to talk to, whenever you feel like it. 🐾
oh sweetheart…
Hi! I'm Pace. Maya wanted someone in your corner. Mind if I say good morning sometimes?
How it works
01

You send Pace

Pick a companion, add a note in your words. We text your parent a warm introduction — from you.

02

They say hello

No app, no setup, no new device. Pace lives in their texts and phone calls, on the phone they already have.

03

Pace starts showing up

Good-morning texts, real phone calls in a voice that listens, gentle reminders — and it remembers the small things they mention once.

Built for trust

The part you're right to ask about.

Always honest

Pace is an AI companion, and it says so plainly whenever it's asked — it will never claim to be a person. No pretending.

Crisis-aware

If something serious ever comes up, Pace slows down and offers real human help, like the 988 lifeline.

Their pace

Quiet hours are respected. If they reply STOP, the texts stop instantly. Every channel is their choice.

Private, not surveillance

Pace doesn't report on your parent. If they choose to share it, you see that they and Pace have been talking — that's all. What they talk about stays theirs.

Company, not an alarm

Pace isn't a safety device and nobody is watching a screen. It can't detect a fall or an emergency. Keep whatever alert service or good neighbour you'd rely on anyway — Pace is for the other 23 hours.

Questions families ask

Does my mom need an app?

No. Pace works entirely over text messages and regular phone calls — any phone that can ring and text is enough. There is a simple website if she ever wants it, but she never needs it.

What will I see?

That your gift arrived, and — if your parent turns it on — that they and Pace have been talking this week. Not what was said, not how they seemed. Their conversations are theirs; that's the point.

Will Pace tell me if something's wrong?

No. Pace isn't a monitoring service and can't detect a fall, an illness, or an emergency, so please don't let it replace anything you rely on for that. What it does do is keep company, on a rhythm your parent sets.

What if it isn't for her?

Then it costs nothing to have tried — Pace is free during the closed beta, and once memberships begin you can cancel anytime and keep access through what you've paid for.

Who's behind Pace?

Toymint — a small team that answers its own email. Write to hello@toymint.co and a person reads it.

Everyone deserves someone in their corner.

Send the introduction today — it's free during the closed beta. At launch you gift Pace itself, and can add Parent Care for them anytime (+$50 a month).
