Real-life scenarios

Four ways Stovyn fits the households we built it for. These are illustrative scenarios, not real testimonials. We'll replace them with real ones once we ship.

Aging parents

Caring for a parent across town

Maya, daughter / part-time caregiver

Maya's mom lives 25 minutes away and refuses to move in. Twice last year Maya drove over after a 9 PM call: 'I think I left the burner on.' Once it really was. Now Stovyn pings Maya when cooking starts, and again if the cooktop sits at high heat without movement for ~15 minutes. She decides whether to call. Most nights she doesn't have to.

Neurodivergent

ADHD kitchen on Sunday meal prep

Devon, freelance designer

Devon has ADHD and cooks for the week every Sunday. The classic pattern: start the rice, get distracted by Slack on the couch, smell smoke 40 minutes later. Now the app, set to "Medium" sensitivity, pings Devon the moment the stove crosses an unsafe threshold. The backup contact is Devon's roommate. They've never had to use it, but cooking stopped feeling like a hazard.

Property management

Property manager · 14 short-term rental units

Hassan, STR operator

Hassan manages 14 vacation rentals. After two close-call grease fires from guests in 2025, his insurance carrier started asking questions. He paired all 14 units from his phone in an afternoon, each feeding one dashboard. When a stove sits at high heat with no acknowledgement, Hassan's on-call cleaner (the unit's local contact) gets the SMS first. The carrier accepted Stovyn as a partial credit toward the building's premium.

Hospitality

Small Airbnb host who wanted privacy assurance

Priya, weekend Airbnb host

Priya rents her in-law suite on weekends and worried that "smart kitchen" devices meant cameras streaming to the cloud. Standard ($99) has no camera. The Pro's camera is event-triggered, not a stream; with the optional cloud AI on it sends a single snapshot to our cloud AI provider and we keep only the result, not your image — never a continuous feed, and the camera can be turned off entirely. She listed it openly as a safety device and earned a "responsible host" mention in a guest review.

Note: These scenarios are composites from research interviews with caregivers, neurodivergent adults, and property managers. They are not testimonials from named customers. Once Stovyn ships, we'll replace them with real, named stories (with permission).
