The story

CareSmartz360 is a HIPAA-compliant, cloud-based home care software platform founded in 2016 in Pittsford, NY. It serves independent home care agencies, franchisors, and facility staffing across the US, Canada, UK and Singapore with scheduling, EVV, client management, billing/RCM, and payroll. In 2025 it evolved toward an AI-first product with its Care First AI Hub. The embedded-finance angle is limited to billing/RCM (invoicing + QuickBooks export + credit-card payments) and third-party payroll/EWA integrations rather than direct financial services.
