What is Obotiq?
Obotiq builds Gracie, an AI-enabled service robot designed to handle routine, non-clinical work in healthcare and senior living facilities so care teams can focus on human-centered care. The platform emphasizes reliable delivery and logistics (meals, mail, supplies) plus social interactions like simple check-ins, reminders, and conversational engagement with residents. Gracie is presented as easy to deploy in real facilities, designed to reduce interruptions and staff burnout while preserving the human aspects of care. The offering is aimed at administrators, directors of nursing, and facility staff who need operational relief and measurable time savings rather than a clinical medical device.
