Feature-by-feature comparison
Libify pricing sourced directly from libify.com. One figure — Libify's full, non-subsidized retail price — could not be confirmed on Libify's own site, so it's marked as such rather than estimated.

Libify comparison FAQ
Is Libify cheaper than I'm Alive?
It can be, but only for households with an approved Pflegegrad (German long-term-care level) — libifyHome starts at €9.55/month and libifyMobil 2.0 at €12.55/month with that approval, both cheaper than I'm Alive's $29.99/year. Without an approved Pflegegrad, Libify's own site doesn't publish a full retail price, so we can't make a direct comparison for that case — we're not going to guess a number.
What is a Pflegegrad, and do I need one for Libify?
A Pflegegrad is a German long-term-care level assigned after a formal assessment, which determines eligibility for care-insurance-subsidized services. Libify's published discounted pricing (libifyHome, libifyMobil 2.0) requires an approved Pflegegrad. I'm Alive requires no such approval process — you can start using it the same day, regardless of care-level status.
Is Libify a real company?
Yes. Libify Technologies GmbH is a Berlin-based company with a real product line (libifyBasic, libifyHome, libifyMobil 2.0), confirmed funding history on Crunchbase, PitchBook, and Dealroom, and a published partnership case study with o2 Business.
Does I'm Alive offer fall detection like Libify's libifyHome?
No — I'm Alive doesn't currently offer automatic fall detection. libifyHome does, alongside a video/family app, for households with an approved Pflegegrad. I'm Alive's approach is different: a daily check-in that catches situations regardless of cause, rather than sensor-based detection of one specific event type.
