Inspiration
We wanted to create a voice-first solution for homeless and at-risk youth who struggle to access help. Inspired by real barriers to communication, we built CareBridge technology that listens with empathy.
What it does
CareBridge is an AI voice assistant that understands a user’s needs and connects them to the nearest verified support centers. Organizations can securely log in to view and respond to user requests.
How we built it
Built with React, Supabase, ElevenLabs, Lovable, and Gemini Flash 2.5. Edge Functions handle user verification, data storage, and triage scoring to match users with relevant organizations.
Challenges we ran into
Managing real-time speech with low latency Ensuring secure data flow and user verification Aligning multiple APIs while keeping responses empathetic
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We built an end-to-end voice system that’s accessible, privacy-focused, and bridges real people to real help.
What we learned
How to merge empathy with AI, balancing technical precision, accessibility, and human warmth in design.
What's next for CareBridge
