For caregivers

Peace of mind that your loved one is drinking enough

Not drinking enough is common in older adults and easy to miss — and older people who arrive in hospital dehydrated do measurably worse than those who don’t.1 Sponge lets you see a loved one’s intake from your own phone, without asking them to learn an app or log a thing.

Sponge is a general wellness product. It is not a medical device, it does not diagnose, treat or prevent any condition, and it is not a substitute for medical care.

How it helps

Hydration monitoring that respects their independence

They keep their normal bottle and routine. You get visibility and alerts.

Remote visibility

See your loved one’s daily intake from your own phone, wherever you are. No need to call and ask.

Behind-goal alerts

Get notified when they’re behind the daily goal they set, so you can check in. It tracks drinking, not health — it won’t tell you anything clinical.

Zero learning curve

They just drink from their usual bottle. Nothing to set up, charge daily, or remember.

Shared family dashboard

Multiple family members can follow along and split the caregiving load.

Trends over time

Spot patterns, like dips on hot days, and share clear data with their doctor.

Private & secure

Data is shared only with the family members you invite. You stay in control.

  1. Hydration and outcome in older patients admitted to hospital (the HOOP prospective cohort study), Age and Ageing, vol. 44 no. 6 (2015). Read the study. In that cohort dehydration was present in 8.9% of older emergency admissions and was the primary cause in 0.6%; 30-day mortality was 17% among those admitted with dehydration against 7% without. We cite it for the outcome gap, not to claim dehydration is a leading cause of admission — it isn’t.
