We're Kate Brigham and Jeff Cole, a two-person consulting and software practice helping Aging Life Care Professionals® automate the admin so they can spend more time on the people, not the paperwork.
It started with Kate’s family. When her dad got sick – before she knew about you all – she wished they’d had a “sherpa guide” to help the whole family through his illness. A few years later, when she discovered that Aging Life Care Professionals® exist, it was like finding out that unicorns 🦄 are real.
Since starting Care Clarity, Kate and Jeff have talked with care managers across the country about how you work, where AI can help, and where people need to stay at the center of the work. What we heard: documentation and billing take hours you’d rather spend with clients and families.
So that’s what we work on. We put our 25+ years in technology to work on the admin, with client privacy in mind from the first conversation, so you have more time for the guidance only you can give. And we get to work with real live unicorns.

Kate and Jeff started working together nearly 20 years ago at PatientsLikeMe, which Jeff co-founded. People living with conditions like ALS, MS, and Parkinson’s disease share what they’ve tried and track how they’re doing, so each patient can learn from the experience of every patient who came before them. That data has informed drug discovery, helped recruit for clinical trials, and supported patient-powered research.
Care Clarity brings the same idea to care management. Ask questions of the notes, emails, and calls you’ve already recorded to see what happened before each of a client’s falls, which clients are due for an assessment, or what the colleague covering for you needs to know while you’re away. The same records can show what’s changed since you started working with a client, like fewer falls and ER visits, so you can also measure the outcomes of your work.
In a free 30-minute call, we’ll talk through where your time goes and show you examples of what a better workflow could look like.
