AI that works the way you think
Not artificial intelligence — assisted intelligence. Your expertise and judgement, amplified by technology that handles the heavy lifting so you can focus on the children.
Ask your data anything
Chat in plain English. "Which support plans are overdue?" "Show me incident trends." Get instant, accurate answers from your own data.
First drafts in seconds
AI writes shift handovers, monthly summaries, and progress reports. You review, edit, and approve — always in control.
Spot patterns early
AI analyses incidents across your homes to find recurring triggers, time-of-day trends, and escalation risks before they become crises.
Smarter referral matching
Upload referral documents and AI assesses suitability across your homes — considering capacity, group dynamics, and individual impact.
Ofsted readiness scoring
Real-time compliance scoring across staffing, documentation, safeguarding, and care quality — with specific actions to improve.
“Every AI suggestion is clearly marked. Confidence levels are shown. Your staff always have the final say. We believe in amplifying professional judgement — never replacing it.”

See Careborne with your own scenarios. We'll show you exactly how it works for your home type, your team size, and your regulatory requirements.
We set you up
We configure your homes, import your existing data, set up your team's accounts, and provide personalised training. Most providers are live within a week.
Transform your care
Your team spends less time on admin and more time with children. Your compliance improves. Your Ofsted readiness score goes up. Everyone breathes easier.
Your children's data, protected
The data you hold is some of the most sensitive there is. We treat it that way.
5-level access control
From basic daily logs to highly restricted safeguarding data — every team member sees exactly what they need, nothing more.
Immutable audit trail
Every action logged, every change tracked, nothing ever permanently deleted. Full accountability for every interaction.
Complete data isolation
Your data is yours alone. Completely separated from every other provider at every level. No cross-contamination, ever.
AI respects your rules
AI can never access data beyond what the logged-in user can see. Your clearance level applies to AI too — no exceptions.
People like you, using Careborne every day
“The Ofsted readiness score changed everything for me. I used to lie awake wondering if we were compliant. Now I check the dashboard and I know exactly where we stand — and what to fix.”
“I can see across all our homes in seconds. Compliance, training, incidents, staffing — one dashboard. When I spot something, I can drill down immediately. It's transformed how I manage the group.”
“I used to spend 45 minutes writing up each shift. Now I describe what happened in my own words and the AI structures it properly. I'm back with the kids in five minutes.”
You didn't get into care to fill in spreadsheets. You got into care to change lives.
Careborne handles the admin, the compliance tracking, and the reporting — so you can get back to the reason you started.
