Helvetic Care AG is a Swiss company founded in 2018 that operates an information and advice platform focused on self-determined living in old age. The company aims to provide comprehensive support to seniors and their relatives by offering a wide range of content, guidance, and community features. Initially, the firm launched a comparison platform called "Orahou" for retirement homes, nursing homes, and home care services in Switzerland, which included financial, residential, and health planning solutions. The founders, Martin G. Spinnler and Tobias Pflugshaupt-Trösch, established the company to address the lack of transparency and rising costs in the Swiss senior care system.
The platform is structured around three main pillars: information, advice, and support. It provides users with valuable content, checklists, webinars, and member offers. Through its digital platform, Helvetic Care connects people, provides information, and brokers specific offers and professional advice. The business model involves collaborating with a network of partners across various sectors, including health insurance (Groupe Mutuel), healthcare (Swiss Medical Network), in-home care (Spitex24), real estate (Swiss Life Immopulse), and technology (Swisscom), to offer integrated services. The company generates revenue and operates as a venture capital-backed entity, having secured funding in seed and early-stage VC rounds.
