Helping you understand what your child can’t always say.

Realtime Behavior Monitoring using Vision AI.

Caregivers get alerts on problem behaviors — from the cameras you already own.

Now piloting with select therapy centers and independent home deployments in Visakhapatnam and Hyderabad.

The real unmet need

A caregiver support system.

Ethan AI is the first non-intrusive, AI-powered behavior monitoring assistant that uses your existing camera setup to detect, predict, and log distress behaviors.

Personalization

Understands each child’s individual behaviour patterns, enabling more relevant insights and supportive interventions across daily environments.

Continuity

The cloud-based vision system securely aggregates behavior observations across home, school, and therapy environments to support consistent insights.

Safety

Personal data is protected in compliance with India’s DPDP Act (2023). Children’s data is collected only with parental consent and handled with the highest care.

Easy to use · quick setup · no new hardware

Up and running in minutes.

01

Easy Installation

Works with your existing CCTV or camera setup, processing video feeds through its agentic software — no new hardware required.

02

Custom Child Profiles

Caregivers set up individual child profiles and choose which behavior patterns they’d like insights on.

03

Role-Based Dashboard

Separate access for parents, teachers, and therapists — insights tailored to each role’s expertise and context.

Built on what you already own

No new hardware. No lock-in.

Works with your camera

Hikvision, Dahua, Reolink, Imou, TP-Link Tapo, CP Plus, Amcrest, UniFi Protect and most prosumer cameras. Paste your stream URL — Ethan AI does the rest.

Fits your routine

Alerts arrive where you already are — email for the grandparent, Slack for the therapy team, Home Assistant for the home. Plus 1,000+ tools via IFTTT, Zapier, and our open webhook.

Without new hardware

A spare laptop webcam or old phone is enough for the free trial. For a permanent setup, our starter list ships from Amazon.in in 48 hours.

Why camera, not wearable

The most reliable sensor is the one they don’t have to wear.

Wearables get refused

In clinical studies, a meaningful share of autistic youth couldn’t tolerate a worn sensor — sensory sensitivity and removal.

Vision already works

Published models detect hand-flapping, head-banging and self-injury from ordinary video at 85–88% accuracy.

Continuous & natural

Nothing to charge or remember. We observe the environment, not the child’s body.

We are building a vision intelligence platform for assistive care

Founded by ASD parents. Built for every child who deserves better support.

Ethan AI began as a need that grew from the personal journey of Shilpa Pakki and Pratush Charan — parents to an autistic child, Ethan, who is non-verbal. Like many children who communicate differently, his behavior became the language they had to learn. Recognizing early signals — anxiety, emotional overload, self-injury, aggression — became essential to supporting his learning of life skills.

With experience spanning computer vision, video analysis, SaaS platforms, adaptive learning, and assistive technology, they set out to build a vision-based system that recognizes behavioral patterns in neurodivergent children before they escalate.

Ethan and family
Computer vision research in autism has largely emphasized early diagnosis. There remains a significant gap in systems that support real-world living — especially for non-verbal individuals and for adolescents and adults, where safety risks are more concerning. Daily care involves high-stakes events: wandering, self-harm escalation, unsafe interactions. Addressing these requires long-term, personalized modeling that detects deviations from individual baselines, infers behavior transitions over time, and produces caregiver-actionable alerts.

“Ethan AI: Building Assistive Technology Through a Parent’s Lens” — the origin, purpose, and real-world motivation behind Ethan AI.

This is a child. We treat the footage that way.

Built for the most sensitive data there is.

Who sees it

Only you and the people you grant access to — therapists, schools, family. We never sell or rent your data.

Where it lives

Encrypted cloud servers in India or the US. No facial recognition, identity verification, or biometric profiling.

What you control

Review, correct, or delete your child’s data anytime. Withdraw consent and we erase it from our systems.
