Ohai

Ohai is a technology startup that creates O, an AI-powered household assistant aimed at easing the mental load for busy parents and caregivers.

Launched in January 2024, Ohai combines generative AI with a human support team to help manage family scheduling, task coordination, and daily logistics. The company was founded by Sheila Lirio Marcelo, who previously established Care.com. O operates as a text-based AI interface, allowing users to interact passively or actively. It offers features such as managing family calendars, coordinating carpools, sorting emails, meal planning, and creating grocery lists. Ohai provides a tiered pricing model, including a free version and premium plans that cater to individual users and co-parents. The company focuses on supporting "Chief Household Officers," busy families, and caregivers, particularly women who often handle invisible household labor.
