Introducing NOVEA
NOVEA — Neurodivergent Occupational Virtual EmpatheticAI Assistant — is EmpathAI Solutions' developing assistive technology platform, envisioned to combine discreet environmental awareness, conversational support, safety features, and caregiver connection in one human-centered experience.
NOVEA is being designed to recognize relevant environmental and conversational cues in real time.
Empathetic AI interprets context with privacy, safety, and the individual’s needs at the center.
Discreet prompts and guidance can help the wearer navigate moments with greater confidence.
NOVEA is a developing prototype and product vision, not a finished medical device. Capabilities may evolve through engineering, research, testing, professional collaboration, and user feedback.
Powering innovation across
EmpathAI is being built as a broader technology company where assistive AI, secure automation, intelligent agents, cybersecurity innovation, and privacy-conscious product design can share one human-centered foundation.
Adaptive tools that can support communication, learning, routines, social navigation, and independent living.
Human-centered automation and intelligent workflows designed to reduce friction without removing human judgment.
Security-focused innovation grounded in privacy, risk awareness, identity, access, and responsible protection.
Purpose-built AI agents designed around clear boundaries, accountability, and meaningful human outcomes.
Architecture and product decisions that treat dignity, transparency, and security as foundational requirements.
Future directions shown here represent long-term product and research interests and are not representations of currently released products or certified capabilities.
Privacy, security & responsible AI
EmpathAI is shaped around dignity, safety, transparency, and accountable human oversight. Security is not an afterthought or marketing feature—it is part of the architecture.
Why EmpathAI exists
EmpathAI grew from founder Sheryl Tuter’s experience seeing how conventional systems can miss the needs of neurodivergent people. With more than three decades of technology and cybersecurity experience, she began shaping a company where empathy, security, innovation, and lived purpose could coexist.
“The goal is not to change who someone is. It is to create technology that expands confidence, independence, safety, and possibility.”— Sheryl Tuter, Founder
Public-interest collaboration
EmpathAI Solutions is a separate for-profit technology company. The NovaGuard Foundation is an independent Texas nonprofit corporation pursuing federal 501(c)(3) recognition. Where missions align, the organizations may collaborate under appropriate governance, transparency, and conflict-of-interest safeguards.
Build what comes next
We welcome conversations with researchers, engineers, educators, clinicians, security professionals, advocates, funders, and mission-aligned organizations interested in responsible AI and assistive technology.
