Tack One, a Singapore-based startup, wants to help make sure your kids, elderly parents and pets are safe with AI-powered location technology.
New Generation of GPS Device Unveiled at CES 2024
The company launched its GPS tracker in 2021 to address the pain point of the short battery life on the market and lower the tracking service cost, making location tracking extremely affordable. Tack One’s battery lasts 30 days on a single charge, and its subscription fees start from $2.95 monthly for a two-year subscription plan.
Updated Tack GPS Tracker
The updated version of its Tack GPS tracker, priced at $79, is a small device that includes a combination of technology such as GPS, Wi-Fi, an Internet of Things (IoT) mobile network, and AI and smart sensors designed for lower-power devices.
Indoor Elevation Finder Feature
The new Tack GPS Plus adds a patent-pending indoor elevation finder feature, which utilizes sensors with intelligent algorithms that allow users to locate missing kids, the elderly, patients, pets, or valuable goods in multistory buildings. The company claims Tack GPS Plus reduces search time in high-rise cities by offering vertical distance and geographical coordinates.
Wide Range of Applications
The Tack GPS Plus can be widely used by parents, caregivers, pet owners, and more. The company says the demand for location technology is rising in many areas, including the caregiving of patients with chronic conditions like Alzheimer’s disease, personal and family security, protection against loss of assets, and even disaster prevention.
New Mobile App: OurSphere
Along with Tack GPS Plus, the company introduced its new mobile app, OurSphere, which lets users keep tabs on multiple Tack devices. OurSphere includes a new functionality that enables real-time location sharing among app users. That means OurSphere app users without a Tack device can share locations in the same app in a family or business setup. Co-founder and chief operating officer of Tack One Eric Yeo said it provides a web dashboard for enterprise users managing large numbers of Tack devices. Users can download the app in mid-January. (Existing Tack GPS users will receive a free app update to OurSphere.)
Expansion Plans
Tack One plans to extend the service coverage to more countries, from 30 to more than 120 countries, while maintaining a low subscription rate. The company will be focusing on launching in the U.S., Canada, the U.K., Australia, Japan, Taiwan, and Southeast Asia countries, Yeo noted.
About Tack One
