Semafores, Inc. Information

Family caregiving can be complicated and chaotic. Over 40 million family caregivers take care of both children and seniors in the U.S. alone. That's a lot of chaos. Multiple people may be taking medications, managing blood sugars, and trying to achieve personal wellness goals. Caregivers must make sure that everyone stays motivated, on track, and has everything they need to reach their goals. Sometimes it's a solo job, but often caregiving responsibility must be handed off between people with understanding of what it takes to make it all work. Semafores' product, Curi™, brings sanity to this process. At Semafores we understand the problems of family caregiving first hand because we live them every day. The company was started by CEO Julie Tittler to create a mobile application to assist family caregivers. The idea came from her own pressing need to simplify her role as primary family caregiver for her own family. Other team members have faced their own caregiving challenges. Semafores was a 2013 Mass Challenge finalist and a finalist in the 2014 Female Entrepreneur Challenge sponsored by the Boston Business Journal, Care.com, and the Center for Women in Enterprise.
