The number of working mothers and their working hours are growing exponentially, which creates the problem that the time spent with the babies is steadily decreasing. While existing monitoring cameras offer a partial solution, they don’t fully respond to the needs of parents, especially mothers.

It's a simple fact that a working mother isn't going to witness every single minute of her children's day and miss out on the sweet moments and the fun. According to a survey made by Mother and Baby magazine in 2013, six out of ten mothers said they welcomed the financial and emotional independence work gives them – but feel bad about missing out on witnessing their children develop. Almost 80% of working mothers feel guilty about leaving their children at home. This survey shows us that despite their achievements, modern mothers are struggling with an overwhelming feeling of guilt and a feeling that they are missing out on precious time with their babies.

We developed Invidyo in order to provide an economic and social solution to the above stated problem and meet the existing gap in the market. Invidyo is the first and only child monitoring solution that employs Artificial Intelligence (A.I.) to provide smart daily highlights, smile albums and crying detection features.
