How it works

Three simple steps. A real person behind every one of them.

  1. 01

    Matched on who they are

    You tell us about their career, hometown, languages and sense of humor. A person on our team chooses the match by hand.

    Not by whoever is free next

  2. 02

    The same call, every week

    A 20 to 30 minute phone or video call on a set day, with the same companion each time.

    Routine they can count on

  3. 03

    A short update for you

    After every call, you get a plain-language note about what they talked about and how they seemed.

    Straight to your inbox

Every companion is vetted before they say hello.

Your parent's safety comes before any match. This is what every companion goes through, and what continues once they are matched.

  • Background check

    Every companion completes a background check before they are introduced to any family.

  • References, contacted directly

    We speak with their references ourselves before a companion is approved.

  • A recorded interview

    A conversation with our matching team, so we hear how they listen, not just what their application says.

  • Ongoing check-ins

    Our team reads every session report, and you can reach us about any call, at any time.

Family updates

Know how the week went, without the daily check-in.

After every call, a member of our team sends you a short note in plain language. Not a clinical record. Just what you would want to know.

Tuesday's call with your dad

From EverHello to Qasim Zaidi

Hi Qasim,

Your dad and Zain talked for about half an hour this afternoon.

They talked about
Sunday’s cricket match, and the fabric shop he ran in Lahore for thirty years.
How he seemed
Cheerful and chatty. He mentioned his knee has been stiff in the mornings.
Worth knowing
He would like to switch to video next week so he can show Zain his old shop photos.
