Some of us don’t necessarily want the early morning ‘Mum are you ok?’ check in call. But we do want to have the security of knowing that our family are on hand should something unforeseen happen. I really love being a part of the Billy system. I’m a Billy kid.

I like to do things, I don’t like sitting around and having everything done for me.

Tom and team are the most kind and helpful people I’ve encountered. Believe me, I am not saying this lightly. I have been around a very long time and dealt with all sorts of people. Some are polite but never as helpful and efficient.

How it works
What’s Billy do and what’s involved?
Billy uses six small sensors placed around the home to automatically keep track of everyday activities like mealtimes and taking medication. If there’s a change in routine, Billy will let you and your family know, helping you spot changes before they become problems that get in your way.

The Billy kit
The Billy kit includes everything you need to keep track of activities like meals, getting up, taking medications, and moving about the house. Install the app on a cell phone to track comings and goings.
3 motion sensors
These look for movement and are typically placed in the living room, hallway, and bathroom. They also measure temperature in each of those rooms.
3 multipurpose sensors
The multipurpose sensors detect when things open and close and typically get placed on the main entry door, the fridge, and on a medication container.
1 hub
The sensors communicate wirelessly with the hub, but you will need to plug the hub, itself, into your modem with a physical ethernet cable that we provide for you.
Installation you can do yourself
Once your kit arrives, download the Billy app and it will guide you step-by- step through a simple installation process you can do yourself.
Get up and running in about an hour. No need to schedule a technician to install it.
Get long term insights
Billy uses its first few days to learn about your everyday activities and set up your routine.
Having learned what your day looks like, Billy then watches for longer-term changes in routine, movement, excursions, bathroom habits and wake-up time.
Small changes can be indicators of underlying issues, giving you a chance to stay on top of your health and wellbeing before they lead to bigger challenges.

Why Billy?

Elizabeth
NSW, Australia
“I would say for anyone who has an elderly parent who isn’t quite as healthy as they used to be: It’s a must! There’s no bothering of anybody. It’s just a gentle way of knowing you’re ok.”
Christine
Victoria, Australia
“Billy has given us great peace of mind and allowed mum to stay in her own home for longer than would have been possible without the 24 hour monitoring.”
Ken
Victoria, Australia
“Billy has absolutely changed my perspective on how long I think Mum can stay independent at home.”
Billy’s approach to a healthy independent lifestyle
Billy’s approach
Families not call centres: Billy engages your family to help you maintain your independence and lifestyle at home.
Dignity and lifestyle: Set and forget. Once Billy is up and running, you’re free to just go about living your life. Billy is not an emergency pendant – there are no buttons to push, no batteries to charge and nothing to wear.
Focus on wellbeing not emergencies: Billy’s focus is on healthy daily activities, rather than searching for emergencies. By confirming positive routines, Billy keeps the focus on remaining healthy and independent.
Early Insight: If things do begin to change, Billy is often the first to know and can send a gentle prompt to family. Early intervention is the difference between a short-term hiccup and an emergency that has lasting impact on your independence.
Smart analytics & machine learning: Billy looks at how your routine is changing over time and uses that information to help you better understand changes in your health, as well as what the changes might mean.

What about emergency pendants?
Millions of people rely on emergency pendants every day. Called PERS (Personal Emergency Response System), these devices are well suited to notify family or authorities in the event of an acute emergency. Rather than providing emergency response, Billy takes a proactive approach, looking for changes in routine that could signal the onset of health changes before they develop into major challenges.
