The new Wellness Coach helps older adults set goals and build lasting wellness routines

Intuition Robotics is rolling out a new Wellness Coach feature for ElliQ, its AI-powered companion robot designed for older adults, as it looks to deepen its role in healthy aging.

The latest update allows ElliQ users to build personalized wellness routines and set goals across physical exercise, cognitive training, stress reduction and sleep.

According to Intuition Robotics, Wellness Coach has driven a 465% increase in physical activity sessions and strong user engagement, with 87% retention after 30 days and 76% after three months of beta testing. On average, participants completed 3.5 wellness activities per week.

“The data is very compelling, showing that an AI companion that creates trust and high engagement has the ability to drive real behavior change through motivation and empathy,” Intuition Robotics co-founder and CEO Dor Skuler said. “The Wellness Coach isn’t about telling older adults what to do—it’s about giving them agency and motivational support to decide on their goals and then achieve them, and we’re already seeing the incredible impact that can have.”
