Founded by Sheila Lirio Marcelo, a pioneer in the caregiving and famtech space for over a decade, Ohai.ai powers your day by helping your whole household run smoothly — from syncing schedules to managing everyday to-dos and reminders — so you can do less juggling and spend more time living. The platform is designed to be the operating system for busy households with both AI-powered assistance and human-in-the-loop design.
“As a mom, caregiver, and entrepreneur, I know the crushing mental load of running a family — especially during back-to-school season — so our mission at Ohai is to reduce the cognitive overload families experience every day,” said Sheila Lirio Marcelo, Founder and CEO of Ohai.ai. “When we make invisible work visible, we can then make it disappear. This new funding allows us to move faster on building the tools families need, starting with something as simple but powerful as instantly syncing your child’s school calendar.”
This latest investment will fuel product development and accelerate Ohai.ai’s mission to reduce mental overload for families, beginning with the launch of a new, first-of-its-kind feature that allows parents to automatically upload and sync school calendars from across the U.S. into their Ohai app, saving time and eliminating the hassle of manually entering school breaks, holidays, early dismissals and special events. No more copying dates from a paper flyer into your phone at midnight. Parents can find their school by zip code or upload a flyer or PDF, and Ohai will automatically add the events to their calendar. With one click, they can share it with a spouse, grandparent, or babysitter so everyone stays on the same page
“Our goal at Muse Capital has always been to back visionary companies building for the modern household, and Ohai.ai is doing exactly that,” said Rachel Springate, Founding Partner at Muse Capital. “Sheila [Lirio Marcelo] and her team are not only reimagining the future of household productivity, but doing so with a deep understanding of the emotional and logistical realities of care. We’re thrilled to support a female-founded company with such an important mission.”
