Reasons to invest

Demographic surge of older adults 65+ driving a critical caregiver shortage
By 2030, the U.S. population aged 65+ will grow from 50 to 70 million, with 87% preferring to age in place (source: AARP). Families caring for aging loved ones are faced with financial, emotional and physical burdens, and are increasingly willing to invest in premium products that will ensure their privacy and safety.
Groundbreaking technology solution
Wisdom is developing a solution to a problem in an industry ripe for innovation. Our Smart Home System uses privacy-preserving sensors installed in the home to safeguard older adults, connecting family and caregivers through a mobile app. It detects falls, lack of movement, and routine anomalies, sending intelligent alerts with two-way voice communication. In a critical situation, a group chat is initiated, and Wisdom's Emergency Response Center assesses if EMS is required. Unlike wearables or other intrusive systems, Wisdom takes an integrated approach that supports safety, wellness, and independence offering a superior solution than current options.
Massive interest in Smart Home technology puts Wisdom on track to ride the wave of demand
The smart home market is projected to expand from $94 billion in 2023 to $339 billion by 2030 (source: Fortune Business Insights). Americans already spend $84 billion annually on home modifications (source: Right At Home), and smart home systems are quickly emerging as must-have additions, seamlessly enhancing traditional upgrades like ramps and grab bars to create safer, smarter living spaces for aging adults.
Proven leadership with a personal connection to the problem
Wisdom Co-Founders Cathy Minter and Dawn Newsome form a dynamic and highly complementary team, combining Cathy’s expertise in strategy and go-to-market with Dawn’s strengths in engineering and product development. Both are experienced business operators who bring the discipline needed to build and grow a company. Personally invested in Wisdom, they are driven by their own experiences as caregivers and members of the sandwich generation, deeply committed to making aging at home easier.
Profitable Growth Strategy
Secured strong interest from B2B channel partners, including residential real estate developers, home modification companies, and home care providers.
Built for Customer Retention
Wisdom is designed to meet both the immediate and long term needs of older adults over decades, driving expansion revenues and high retention rates.
Privacy-First, Non-Wearable Technology
Wisdom’s sensor-based solution prioritizes privacy without relying on wearables or intrusive monitoring, providing peace of mind to both users and families.
Proven Leadership
Wisdom’s founders bring a track record of success in tech innovation and business strategy, positioning the company to scale and grow effectively.

Problem

The unreliable reality of medical alert pendants and wearables

Current medical alert and home fall detection products rely on wearables, which suffer from low compliance, false alarms, discomfort, and stigma. Batteries are often not charged, people forget to wear the device, and they are often removed at critical times such as taking a shower and at night.  According to a recent study in by The Senior List, nearly 80% of older adults do not consistently wear their medical alert devices despite having them available (source: The Senior List). Additionally, an AARP survey found older adults feel medical alert pendants are associated with a loss of independence and reported a sense of embarrassment when wearing them.
To address these issues, some caregivers have attempted a do-it-yourself approach. This could include everything from using baby monitors, traditional security cameras, and smartphones. However, this approach only works with constant monitoring and potentially increases the level of stress for the caregiver. It also dismisses the older adult’s desire for privacy.

Today's smart home systems lack features and user-friendly design tailored to the needs of older adults.

While larger smart home systems are gaining in popularity, they lack the dedicated design needed to meet the unique needs of older adults. Wisdom operates at the intersection of these two markets, offering a purpose-built solution designed specifically for aging in place. Our focus on the needs of the older adult demographic and their families positions us to capture market share from both traditional medical alert providers and mainstream smart home companies that fail address this growing market segment.

Solution

Wisdom solves these problems via our always-on, end-to-end Smart Home System designed specifically for older adults aging in place

Wisdom protects older adults with privacy preserving sensors that are installed in the home and connected to family and caregivers via a mobile application. The system accurately detects falls, lack of movement and anomalies in daily routine. Wisdom sends intelligent alerts if a critical situation, such as a fall or lack of movement, is detected along with 2-way voice activation. A group chat with assigned caregivers is initiated, and Wisdom’s Emergency Response Center is notified to assess if local EMS should be dispatched. 
In addition to critical alerts, Wisdom will offer friendly daily check-ins, medication reminders and appointment alerts which help both caregivers and older adults manage care. Wisdom is easy to use and accessible through smart phones, home computers,  and tablets.  
Note: preliminary design
Wisdom leverages modern edge computing with a powerful GPU Home Hub that acts like the brain of the system. The Home Hub handles all the important processing inside the home. This means your personal information stays private and doesn't need to be sent to the cloud, so it’s faster and more secure. 
Our future roadmap includes:
  • Predictive fall risk score
  • Enhanced voice and gesture activation 
  • Smart lighting 
  • Outdoor capabilities
  • In-app video messaging

Revenue Model

Growth Through Consumer Sales and Business Partnerships

Wisdom will generate revenue through direct-to-consumer (D2C) sales, with a one-time installation fee for hardware and a monthly subscription. This subscription includes ongoing technical support and future software upgrades, creating a recurring revenue stream that serves as the foundation of our business.
We are expanding into adjacent B2B opportunities by partnering with home modification companies, 55+ communities, and non-profits focused on aging-in-place. By leveraging our partners’ established go-to-market channels we can efficiently broaden our reach and cost effectively drive growth.
Key metrics include the number of installations, subscription fees, customer retention and growth, quality of customer service, as well as revenue and profitability. 
These models apply across consumer and business channels:
  • DTC revenues = one-time installation fee + subscription fees (equipment leasing, emergency services, customer support)
  • B2B revenues = capital improvement (one-time equipment purchase) + smaller subscription (emergency services and support)
Market Opportunity

Addressable market, existing problems, and our solution

The U.S. population aged 65 and older is projected to grow from 50 million to 70 million by 2030, with 87% expressing a preference to age in place (AARP). Driven by both financial and emotional reasons, the desire to age at home is strong. This is creating demand for effective solutions that enables older adults to live safely and independently, while reducing the burden on caregivers.
Simultaneously, the demand for smart home solutions which include connected sensors and devices is surging, with the market expected to grow from $94 billion in 2023 to $339 billion by 2030 (Fortune Business Insights). Research shows that older adults and their families are seeking ways to ease the burden on caregiving and are willing to pay 20-25% more for premium products that enhance safety and prioritize privacy. (Grand View Research).
Americans are already spending $84 billion annually on home improvements to support aging in place. Home assessments now frequently recommend smart home systems as a complement to traditional physical modifications like ramps and grab bars, highlighting the growing acceptance of smart home systems to create a safer and more connected home  for older adults.

Frequently Asked Questions

Investor FAQs

Frequently asked questions and responses for investors can be found below.
What is Regulation CF?
Regulation CF allows investors to invest in startups and early-growth companies. This is different from helping a company raise money on Kickstarter; by investing in a Regulation CF Offering, you aren’t buying products or merchandise - you are buying securities from a company that has filed a Form C with the US Securities and Exchange Commission.

Investments in securities of any kind carry inherent levels of risk - all investors should review the Form C in entirety before making an investment, including any risk disclosures. You can learn more about Regulation CF here.
Who is eligible to invest?
The American JOBS ACT has created a new opportunity for entrepreneurs to raise capital and investors to now invest in private, early-stage opportunities. Previously these early-stage investments were limited to accredited investors (those with a net worth or more than $1M or income of more than $200k). Although this is a new and exciting opportunity, there are still some limitations placed around how much a non-accredited investor may invest - please consult the Issuance Express education page to learn more.
What are the tax implications of making a Reg CF investment?
We cannot give tax advice, and we encourage you to talk with your accountant or tax advisor before making an investment.
How was the valuation calculated?
The Company determined the price using comparable company valuations. Management believes our valuation reflects Wisdom's progress, the size of the market, and our growth potential. It’s based on key milestones like our successful prototype, market feedback, and the opportunity to serve the growing aging population, providing a realistic estimate of the company’s value. As with any forward-looking statements, our valuation and growth potential are based on the expectations of our management team, and are subject to risks and uncertainties.

The price of the Securities does not necessarily bear any relationship to the asset value, net worth, revenues or other established criteria of value, and should not be considered indicative of the actual value of the Securities. To learn more about the pricing and structure of this offering, please consult the Form C filed with the SEC.
What is the market for these securities? How can I expect to see a return on my investment if I invest in this offering?
These securities are privately held, meaning they aren’t traded publicly. You may see a return if Wisdom grows significantly, potentially through future share sales or acquisition. While returns aren’t guaranteed, our focus is on long-term value creation. A full list breakdown of investor risk factors and forward-looking disclosures can be found in the Form C filed with the SEC for this offering.
What is Issuance Express?
Jumpstart Micro, Inc d.b.a. Issuance Express (“Issuance Express”) is a Funding Portal registered with the SEC and a member of FINRA.
