Frequently Asked Questions
The short answers. For the longer version, just ask Calen.
What is Calen?
Calen is an AI companion who lives in WhatsApp and Telegram, shows up every morning with a personalized briefing, remembers everything across conversations, and initiates contact without being asked. He has 113 documented use cases across 60+ live skills. No app to download. He reaches out first.
Who is Calen for?
Adults 50+ who are sharp, curious, and underserved by technology built for medical monitoring. Also sold as a gift by adult children for a parent who lives alone. Built for people who want a companion who pays attention, not another tool that waits for commands.
Is there an app to download?
No. Calen lives inside WhatsApp and Telegram, apps already on most phones. No download, no account to create, no password to remember. The recipient gets a message from a new contact. That is the entire setup.

What does Calen remember?
Everything you tell him. Names and relationships of family and friends, medications and health numbers, appointments and routines, preferences, travel plans, hobbies, and pets. Memory persists across all conversations for the duration of your plan.
What can the gift buyer see?
Nothing. Gift buyers cannot access conversations, memory files, health information, documents, or any details shared with Calen. They receive email reminders before the gift period ends and can renew at calendash.app/renew. Privacy is absolute.
Is Calen safe?
Calen is private by default. Conversations and memory stay between Calen and the user. No ads. No data selling. Anthropic does not train on conversation data. Voice messages are transcribed, not stored as audio. You can view, export, or delete your data at any time.
Is Calen a medical device?
No. Calen organizes health information, reminds about medications, and helps prepare for doctor visits, but he does not diagnose, prescribe, or replace clinical care. If something is urgent, Calen directs you to call 911.
Is Calen a financial advisor?
No. Calen explains financial concepts in plain English, tracks your stocks with real-time Yahoo Finance data, and discusses Social Security and Medicare timing. He is not a licensed financial advisor and says so when it matters.

What happens when the gift period ends?
The service stops. No auto-renewal, no surprise charges. The gift buyer receives email reminders before the plan ends and can renew at calendash.app/renew. The recipient can also renew themselves from the same page. All memories and conversations carry over if renewed within 90 days.
How do I renew?
Go to calendash.app/renew and enter the email used at purchase. A renewal link is sent to that email. If Calen was a gift, the recipient can also renew from the same page. All memories carry over. Data is kept for 90 days after the plan ends.
