Avana Get early access

A small team in India, building one careful thing

Avana is a small product on purpose, and it is opening to families a few at a time.

Every family has the same message thread. "Reached?" "Did you reach?" "Call when you reach." It is asked out of love, and it is a little tiring for everyone.

Location apps were supposed to end that. Many of them replaced it with something worse: a dot on a map that might be three hours old, a history of everywhere you have ever been, and a company in the middle whose business is the data.

Avana is our attempt at the version a family would actually choose. It answers one question, whether they got there, and it keeps as little as it can while doing so.

What we hold ourselves to

  • Say how old a position is

    A position without its age is a guess presented as a fact. Every position in Avana carries its age, and the old ones look old.

  • Keep less

    Location is deleted after seven days. We would rather not have the data than promise to guard it forever.

  • Nobody is watched in secret

    Everyone in a nest sees everyone else. A phone that is sharing shows a notification saying so, and pausing is always one tap away.

  • Never fake safety

    If a safety feature is not real and tested, it is not in the app and it is not on this website. That is why you will not find crash detection or driving scores here.

  • The family is the customer

    No ads and no data sales. When Avana costs money, the money will come from families who find it worth paying for.

Where we are today

We would rather tell you plainly than have you find out.
