Co-founder and CTO

Fabien brings 20 years of experience in product design and software engineering. He holds an engineering degree from Polytech Paris-Saclay and a research master in distributed systems.

Why this topic? Because it's ours. When I came back to France after years abroad, I spent time with my parents. One day, I saw my mother speaking to Alexa as naturally as she would to a person. Agely was born in that moment. With Fabien, we want to put our expertise and technology at the service of our elders.

What the field taught us

Before we wrote a line of code, we spent months in the field, with families, caregivers, health professionals and older adults themselves.

One conviction came out of it.

You don't step into an older adult's life by treating them as a patient.

We call this category of product CircleAI: AI that works for one person and the people around them, not for whoever happens to be holding the phone.

Ecosystem

No team solves a worldwide problem alone. We're federating the energies and expertise it takes to move it.

In September 2026 in Cannes, the SilverNight audience voted for Agely, which received the Audience Award (Prix du Public) of the Trophées SilverEco 2026. Read the story

Add life to years.

Feel useful, at every age.

Today, Agely draws the family closer around the older adult, the people who already matter, everyday life. Tomorrow, that bond widens beyond the family and across generations. A younger person looks out for a neighbour. An older adult passes on a skill to a child on the other side of the world.

That vision starts now, with one family. We're onboarding our first families as ambassadors, and they're shaping the platform with us.

Let's talk.

Insurers, mutuals, employers, local authorities: if aging is on your agenda, the fastest way in is a demo built on your own situation. Here for a loved one of your own? Ambassador status for our first families is open. And if you want to join us or talk investment, our LinkedIn profiles are further up this page.
