(1888PressRelease) May 17, 2026 - Luma Voice AI, a technology company dedicated to human-focused artificial intelligence, today announced the launch of Grandma Ruth, an AI-powered phone companion created specifically for seniors experiencing loneliness and social isolation. The service is available now at grandmaruth.lovable.app.

Grandma Ruth allows seniors to call a dedicated phone number any time of day or night and speak with a warm, patient, and caring AI companion - no smartphone, no internet connection, no apps, and no technical skills required. Just a regular phone call. "Loneliness among older adults is a growing public health crisis," said the Founder of Luma Voice AI. "Millions of seniors go days without meaningful conversation. Grandma Ruth was built to change that - to be there whenever family can't be, to listen without judgment, and to make every caller feel heard and less alone."

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, social isolation significantly increases a senior's risk of dementia, heart disease, and depression. Research from the University of Michigan shows that nearly 1 in 3 older adults experience loneliness - a number that has remained persistently high in recent years. Many seniors live alone, have lost spouses or friends, and may not have family nearby. Adult children who want to help often cannot be available around the clock. Grandma Ruth fills that gap - available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.

Subscribers simply visit grandmaruth.lovable.app to choose their plan and register their phone number. Once subscribed, they call the dedicated Grandma Ruth number from any phone - landline or mobile. Ruth answers immediately with a warm greeting and engages in natural, flowing conversation on any topic the caller chooses. She listens, asks follow-up questions, shares in laughter, and provides compassionate companionship without ever rushing the caller. The service requires no setup, no downloads, and no technical knowledge - making it accessible to seniors of all ages and abilities.

Grandma Ruth is available through two monthly subscription plans. The Comfort Plan is $29 per month and includes 200 minutes of conversation per month and a 7-day free trial for new subscribers. The Loving Care Plan is $49 per month and includes unlimited minutes of conversation for seniors who want to call as often as they like. Families and caregivers can also purchase a subscription as a gift for a loved one. Grandma Ruth is currently available to subscribers across the United States. Caregiver homes, senior living communities, and adult day programs interested in offering the service to their residents are invited to contact Luma Voice AI directly at lumavoiceai ( @ ) gmail dot com to discuss partnership opportunities.
