Company

A practical commitment to people’s autonomy

Pantoufle develops intelligent assistive technologies that foster people’s autonomy and support those who care for them.

Who we are

An independent technology company

Pantoufle is a European company that designs and develops intelligent assistive technologies. We build integrated systems that combine artificial intelligence, hardware, software and services, with the aim of supporting personal autonomy and care in everyday life.

Our first area of work concerns people with cognitive vulnerabilities and those who care for them: family members, professional caregivers and the organisations that work alongside them.

We work with associations, foundations and institutions close to people and families and, together with them, we make our solutions accessible to those who need them.

Why we are called Pantoufle

Why Pantoufle was founded

The greatest difficulties arise in everyday gestures

For someone living with a cognitive vulnerability, autonomy is often measured in simple things: remembering an appointment, following a routine, feeling safe at home. For those who provide care, it means being able to count on support without always having to be there.

Pantoufle was founded to develop technologies that step in at precisely these moments, discreetly and with respect for the person.

Mission, vision and values

Our mission

To develop useful, respectful assistive technologies that foster people’s autonomy and make the care work of families and caregivers more sustainable.

Our vision

A society in which technology discreetly supports people’s autonomy, fitting into everyday life rather than complicating it.

Our values

Person-centredness
We design around the needs, rhythms and preferences of those who will use our solutions.
Confidentiality and trust
Data protection is a design requirement, not an afterthought.
Responsible innovation
We adopt a technology when it is useful, and we state its limits and maturity clearly.
Pragmatism and restraint
We prefer simple, verifiable solutions to broad promises that are hard to keep.
Collaboration
We work with associations, institutions, families and technical partners, because no one understands the problem alone.
