Scene 1
The band notices
An ordinary moment at home, but his body is saying something else. The band picks up the change and steps in right then.

Heka. A wristband that stays with you in the hardest moment.
A screenless band worn all day. It reads your body’s signals, and when it sees signs of a craving for smoking or drugs it steps in right away with a gentle vibration and a breathing exercise, and lets your doctor and the person you chose know.
See how it works Prototype in development
01 / The idea
Relapse doesn’t happen at the clinic. It happens in a moment, alone.
Many people want to quit smoking or drugs without going into rehab. Cravings arrive suddenly, at home or at work, with nobody around. Heka is built for exactly that moment.
02 / The story in 3 scenes
From the first signal to the full picture for the doctor.
Scene 2
Someone checks in
If he doesn’t respond in time, the person he chose gets an alert, and he answers from the app.

Scene 3
The doctor sees the picture
Every intervention and every answer is logged, so the doctor sees when cravings rise and how the patient handles them.

03 / Inside the band
No screen. All the work happens underneath, on the skin.
01
Pulse
An optical window reads the pulse continuously.
02
Sweat
Two gold electrodes measure sweat activity.
03
Temperature
A metal pad measures skin temperature.
04
On the band itself
Detection and intervention work with no phone or internet; data syncs later.
05
Vibration and light only
No screen, no sound, so nobody around you notices.
06
Wireless charging
No exposed ports, with a target battery life of 3 to 5 days.
04 / No silent ignoring
Every alert gets an answer. And if it doesn’t, there’s a plan.
The band steps in
Vibration, a breathing exercise and a notification to the patient.
The patient confirms
Answers in the app within the window: done, later, or I can’t right now.
The chosen person
With no confirmation, the person the patient chose is alerted.
The doctor
If there’s still no action, a second contact and the doctor are alerted.
The window depends on risk: 15 minutes for high, one hour for medium, three hours for low.
05 / An honest promise
We don’t promise a cure. We promise support at the right time.
- Our goal is the longest time clean, the fewest relapses, and stepping in before a relapse happens.
- Heka is not an emergency device. The app has a quick-call button for emergency services or the doctor.
- Patients agree to the system’s rules on day one. Nothing is forced.
- The first pilot runs in Egypt with a small number of bands and partner medical centers.
