Tuktu Care is a Canadian agetech marketplace that uses an AI-driven matching algorithm to pair seniors and families with vetted local companions and service providers. Founded in Vancouver in 2022 after founder Rustam Sengupta's father was diagnosed with dementia, the on-demand platform covers everything from companionship and transportation to housekeeping, overnight care, and post-hospital recovery - typically at 30-40% less than the cost of traditional agencies. A Techstars Future of Longevity company, Tuktu has served 6,000+ customers and built a network of 300+ care providers across Canada, and in March 2026 expanded into the United States with a statewide launch in Vermont.
