Mum chose to share it
For parents with more stories than anyone has had time to ask about.
For a parent who has retired, has more stories than anyone has had time to ask about, and enjoys a good chat on the phone. Grandparents too. Whether you live in the next town or the other side of the world, and with no app or smartphone needed for them.
Everyone can join in.
Add your brother, sister or the grandchildren, up to 5 of you at no extra cost. Your parent decides who hears what.
Their voice, their choice.
In their own words
How they’re feeling, their health, their week: you hear it in their words, tidied into a short update.
They’re in control
They approve every word before it’s shared, and choose who hears what.

Good to know
Is Allo a real person?
Allo is a friendly AI, and your parent knows that from the first hello.
Does my parent need an app?
No, just a phone, landline or mobile.
What does Allo talk about?
Whatever your parent enjoys: their week, their garden, growing up, work, the people in their life. Allo picks up where they left off last time, and brings in the questions you suggest.
Who can hear the recordings?
Your parent can hear all of them. The family hears only the story clips your parent chooses to share in their own voice, and reads only the words they approve. Full recordings are kept for 90 days, and your parent can ask for a copy, or for them to be deleted, anytime.
What if they miss the call?
Allo tries again later that day, within calling hours, and lets you know if it can’t reach them.
Will I hear how they’re really doing?
Yes, in their own words: how they’re feeling, their health, their week, whenever they choose to share it. If something urgent comes up on a call, Allo points them straight to the emergency services.
Can my parent ring Allo?
Yes, for a second call each week, or to leave you a message anytime. It’s a local number, included in most phone plans.
What if my parent wants to talk more?
They can say so, and we’ll ask you. You decide.
What if my parent says no?
Then that’s that. The first call ends kindly, we let you know, and we refund you in full.
How do refunds work?
Full refund anytime before the first call, and if your parent decides on that call it’s not for them. After that, a 30-day money-back guarantee: just email us.
Who owns the stories?
Your family. Ask for a copy anytime, including after you cancel.
Can my brother and sister get the updates?
Yes, up to 5 of you, free. Your parent chooses who hears what.
Can I set it up for my gran or grandad?
Yes, it works just the same. Choose Grandma or Grandad when you set it up.
Is Allo right for my parent?
Allo suits a parent who enjoys a chat on the phone and can decide for themselves what to share. They agree to the calls on the first one.
Where is Allo available?
You can live anywhere. Allo calls parents in the UK, Ireland, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, in English for now. The US is coming soon.
