Building AI technology around real human needs

Eduard Takhunts

Founder, Product Architect & AI/Assistive Technology Strategist

I create AI-enabled care platforms, assistive technologies, caregiver applications, secure web portals, and digital products designed for practical real-world use.

My principal work is Luka Bear, a non-medical assistive-technology platform developed from my experience caring for my father with Alzheimer's disease.

Founder story

A product created from lived caregiving experience

Luka Bear began as a solution for my own father, who lives with Alzheimer's disease. I needed a way to provide familiar reassurance, answer repetitive questions, support routines, and remain present when I could not physically be beside him.

That personal solution developed into an assistive-technology platform for families, caregivers, and care communities.
