Anya is an AI for special needs parents — including parents of children with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) — designed to hold and make clear what a parent knows about their child. Unlike general AI tools, Anya focuses on one person — your child — and helps ensure that knowledge remains usable for care planning, transitions, and long-term continuity.

Anya was created by Michael Pearce, an attorney with 30 years of experience in intellectual and developmental disabilities law. It is offered by Vest Life, Inc. at anya.tenerra.ai with a 7-day free trial and an annual plan of $199 per year (about $16.60 per month).

How will they know?

You tell Anya your child's routines, what works, what doesn't. She organizes it, keeps it updated, and helps you share what matters most with anyone who needs to know. Across every age, every transition, every new person who steps in.

Taylor can’t speak for herself.

When I’m not here, how will anyone know what keeps her calm…

what sets her off…

what actually works?

How will they know what to do?

Anya

What you know about Taylor will be here — in your words, with the insights only you know.

What keeps her calm, what sets her off, and what actually helps.

They won’t be guessing. They will know what to do.

Mornings for Zach only work if everything is the same.

same bathroom routine, same cereal, same bowl, same cup, same order.

When there’s a routine change — that’s when it all falls apart.

When things start falling apart and he says “I’m fine” he may not be fine. Look deeper.

Anya

For Zach, unexpected changes can trigger distress.

Keep routines consistent, especially in the morning. Follow the same order each day and avoid last-minute changes when possible.

Use familiar items (same cereal, same cup) to maintain predictability.

If Zach says “I’m fine,” look more closely. He may already be overwhelmed or struggling, even if he is not showing it directly.

I’m so tired of having to retell Sam’s story every time.

We’re meeting a new para next week. Can you help me put something together for them?

Anya

Okay — I’ll pull together a “Getting to Know Sam” guide you can share with the new para.

I’ll show it to you first so you can tweak anything.

Then I’ll format it so it’s ready to send.

Give me a minute.

You don't need to do this all at once.

One night, you tell Anya something small — something you've never written down before.

This is how Anya will learn to know your child as a person, and not just a diagnosis.

Start with one thing

Now imagine all of your thoughts, guidance, and records about your child gathered in one place. Intuitively organized, always available, never lost.

This is where Anya lives — in your child's Vest:

Anya Dashboard - Max's Vest

Your Vest gets stronger every time you talk to Anya.

Evergreen

Your child's story — kept current, not frozen in time.

Most parents have a binder. A Google Doc. A password-protected folder. The problem isn't that the information doesn't exist — it's that it lives in your head more than anywhere else. And what's written down goes stale.

Anya keeps your child's profile evergreen. Every conversation updates it. Every new stage, every new behavior, every new person who needs to understand your child — Anya is ready.

Because life is transition.

When it matters most

Everything about your child. One tap away.

Anya is your living record — built from every conversation, file, record, thought and moment. When the moment comes that you need key info, it's already there.

In a staff meeting.

IEP review starts in five minutes. Pull up last year's goals, current medications, and your child's communication preferences — before you sit down.

In an introduction.

New day program, new teacher, new doctor. Anya helps you pull together a current, customized guide that you can use to communicate what they need to know - in seconds.

In an emergency.

Medications, allergies, behavioral triggers. Everything a first responder or ER nurse needs — Anya is on constant standby for you, just a login away.

Continuity Keeper

You choose who carries your child's story forward.

When someone else needs to step in, they don't start from scratch. They step into what you already know. Clear. Complete. Ready to use.

And when the time comes, you choose who that person is. And that person will choose the next. Anya will continue on across all ages and stages of your child's life.

We want to be straight with you.

Anya is powerful. She is also honest about what she is — and what she isn't.

What Anya is

A guide who knows your child.

Over time, she comes to understand your child — their routines, their needs, their story. You don't have to carry it alone — and nothing important gets lost.

Private. Secure. Yours.

Anya isn't out on the internet.

She lives in a private, encrypted space that only you control.

Not shared. Not sold. Not used to train anything else.

Built on infrastructure trusted by the world's most secure systems, including Amazon Web Services and Cloudflare.

One thing Anya will never do

Not a therapist. Not a doctor. Not an attorney.

She guides. She does not prescribe, diagnose, or give legal advice. When a question falls outside her lane, she says so — and suggests the type of professional to look for.

Anya

Our Privacy Promise

Anya's mission is her guardrail. One family, one child. That's her universe. Your child's story will never be used to build anyone else's product.

Built on 30 Years of Experience

Anya was created by Michael Pearce — a special needs attorney who has worked with thousands of families in special needs trust planning. He realized that legal documents and binders weren't enough. Those paper plans worked once, and then just stopped. So he built Anya.

Anya is a private profile you build in conversation, at your own pace.

Your child doesn't need to be present. This is yours to build.

Most parents spend 10–15 minutes on their first session.

You control who sees it. Always.

Simple, transparent pricing

One plan. Everything included. No surprises.

7-Day Free Trial. We won't share your email. No upselling.
