We are an award-winning AI company, pioneering technology-enabled care (TEC). We are on a mission to make ageing safer & smarter. We develop privacy-first infrastructure that blends into everyday realities. Our aim is to revolutionise how care is delivered in homes, hospitals and residential settings.
Privacy-first is the foundation of our approach. We are the only company solely using thermal data to ensure quality and dignity.
Dr Afroditi Konidari and Rui Zhang began Tendertec from their own experiences of caring remotely for parents with chronic conditions.
Our founders have lived the chaos of juggling work, life and caring for family, and seen the cracks in the system up close. That’s why Tendertec isn’t just a tech company. It’s a mission.
We’re building infrastructure that understands real-world care – full of noise, gaps, and urgency – help make it safer, earlier, and more human.
Your feedback shapes everything we do. Everyone across the care chain has a seat at our design table – whether they’re giving or receiving care.
We champion active, inclusive ageing. We challenge the norm of solutions that disregard individual choice and do not account for each user’s differences and needs.
We prioritise making Al transparent and understandable, ensuring it is a tool that enhances and complements care without replacing the human touch.
Recognised for building what care actually needs.
Our work has been recognised by global innovation programmes, government bodies and the care sector.
But we measure success in earlier interventions, avoided hospital visits, and care teams that feel more supported – not stretched.
