Connect. Manage. Grow.
The operator network, the tools to run your home, and CarePal, your AI partner, in one place. For operators and aspiring operators, built on transparency, peer support, and a shared commitment to raising the bar in residential care.
About
Whether you're in the research phase, under construction, or running multiple homes, we're glad you're here. This is the network that should have always existed. Coming together, cards on the table, no gatekeeping, and no hefty consulting bill. Magic happens at the in-person property walk-and-talks, where operators at every stage walk through each other's homes and share everything openly. One conversation can save thousands of dollars and months of delays. I've seen it.
There's no catch. Truly. Just people who are passionate about what they're building (and the ripples that creates) being honest with each other about what works, so we can all raise the Assisted Living bar. The people here know you, trust you, and send referrals your way, and we expect the same from you. That's what we're building together.
CarePal is trained on Texas ALF regulations, HHSC licensing, staffing requirements, and the real-world knowledge of BFC operators. Ask it anything: regulatory guidance, resident care decisions, pricing benchmarks, or which homes in the network have availability, and get a direct, informed answer in seconds.

✏️
Property Updates
Update your availability, status, or pricing right from the chat, no forms.

🛏️
Bed & Suite Manager
Build out your floor plan: private, companion, or memory care. Every room mapped, every bed tracked.
📊
Occupancy & Revenue
Average bed rate, monthly revenue, and open beds, updated live as residents move in and out.
📄
Lender-ready reports
One tap exports your Property Report, rent roll and occupancy history: the high-level numbers a lender or partner asks for, already laid out.
🔔
Rate Targets
Flag upcoming rate increases before they slip. Know which residents are due for a review so you stay ahead of the conversation.
🧭
Where residents come from
See which referral sources actually fill your beds, so you know who to thank and where to spend your time.
💵
Priced your way
A rate per resident, rates by care level, or a room rate plus care. Your detailed rates stay private to you.
Front Desk is your business line, your inbox and your paperwork working together. An AI assistant answers your line and gets every caller to the right person. Calls, texts and email land in one inbox, organized around each resident and each hire. Your agreement templates go out by text and are signed on a phone, and a signed agreement flows straight into Occupancy: the bed is reserved, the move-in date is set, and your numbers stay current.
The Employee Misconduct Registry and the Nurse Aide employability search have to be done before anyone works a shift, and again every single year. Miss one and it is a survey finding. Front Desk runs both the moment you hire someone, files the state's own PDFs to their employee record, and re-runs them automatically 48 hours before they expire, so the deadline stops being something you carry.
📞
An assistant answers your line
Every call is answered, summarized and routed to the right person. Families reach you; job seekers get the application.
💬
One inbox
Texts, email and calls together, grouped by the resident or the hire they are about, so nothing is asked twice.
✍️
Agreements, signed on a phone
Your admission agreement, waiting list page and handbook as templates with digital signatures. Signing reserves the bed in Occupancy.
🛡️
Both registries, one tap
EMR and employability, searched together. The state's own PDFs land on the employee's file, named the way you already name them.
🔁
It never lapses
Good for a year, re-run automatically 48 hours before it expires. Every run is kept: the file is a history, not a snapshot.
🚨
You hear about the bad ones
A clean check is silent. An unemployable finding or a misconduct record reaches you the moment it is found.
