Sandwich is an AI-powered assistant and policy advocacy tool that helps low-income working women with dual caregiving responsibilities manage, share, and quantify their invisible labor.

Low-income working women caring for both children and older adults face overwhelming burdens, with few tools to help. Existing tools, policies, and systems don't meet their unique needs.Sandwich, a smart AI assistant, lightens their load. It simplifies daily schedule management, saving time; enables shared caregiving, distributing labor; and connects families to public benefits, expanding resources. Sandwich also uses aggregate data to drive policy reforms, making caregivers' burdens more visible, measurable, and impossible to ignore.
