You want to get an assistant but don`t have enough money to hire? No problem. Just get one Tapia and you`ll have a companion powered by artificial intelligence and a friend at the same time. With the power of face and voice recognition, Tapia can learn more and more with every conversation with you. As a funny fact, maybe it will tell you jokes too one day.

The smart device helps you place online orders, phone calls, and if it`s connected to the home control system, can even brew your morning coffee, adjust lighting, play music, and a lot more. You can ask Tapia about weather updates, traffic and other things happening outside. It comes with an built-in security system. If a registered user doesn`t interact with Tapia for a specific time period, it will alert other members of the family or friends. This capability could help a lot old people and those living alone.

Say you come home after a hard, stressful day at work, and you need to relax. Amazingly, Tapia will read your face expressions and know it`s time to play some relaxing music.
