What specific problem are you solving?
Due to a lack of awareness of social resources and difficulty in accessing them, an estimated $140 billion of social resources go unused. Social care coordination—connecting individuals with social resources—makes people healthier, improves quality of life, and yields cost savings, yet it’s a complex process with significant administrative burdens. Current solutions rely heavily on care coordinators to do repetitive admin tasks like identifying resources, verifying availability, and assisting with forms. This limits their ability to serve everyone in need as well as be able to provide personalized support causing billions in resources to go unused.
What is your solution?
We’re building an AI-driven social care coordination platform that helps individuals find, apply for, and track resources like housing assistance, food programs, and financial aid. Our plug-and-play solution integrates with existing systems—such as EHRs or nonprofit CRMs—used by healthcare organizations, nonprofits, and government agencies. Our AI agents match eligible recipients with the right services, streamline applications, and provide real-time tracking and insights. This approach bridges the gap between billions in unused social resources and those in need while reducing the manual workload for care coordination teams. By automating repetitive tasks, our solution allows coordinators to focus on human connection and personalized support, expanding both the number of people served and the quality of care delivered.
Who does your solution serve, and in what ways will the solution impact their lives?
Our solution serves individuals who rely on social resources, including low-income individuals, older adults, people with disabilities, and those with chronic illnesses. These populations are often disconnected from the social support systems designed to assist them, facing overwhelming barriers in discovering and applying for essential resources. As a result, many do not receive the help they need.
Our AI-powered solution simplifies the process of finding and accessing social resources, reducing complexity and administrative burden. By streamlining discovery and application, we empower individuals to take control of their own care, ensuring they receive timely and appropriate support.
