Company information

The care sector has ever-increasing demand and ever-dwindling resources; while most first-generation homecare technology does a great job of digitising processes, taking paper processes and putting them on a screen does not solve the essential problem of ‘there’s never enough time, there’s never enough people’.

Birdie is different from other homecare technology providers: it makes the business of caring easier, faster and safer with the power of data.

Data-powered smart technology gives you the power of insight and automation, so it is easy to make smart decisions and act on them. Over 1,000 care providers chose Birdie as their smart care technology partner of choice, which is why it has been named Technology Support Provider of the Year at the LaingBuisson awards. If you want to make easier, faster and safer choices for you and your clients, Birdie’s smart, data-powered technology is the partner that can help you fly. Get a demo to see why care businesses of all sizes use Birdie to transform the way they care, unlocking a new way to operate and building a supported workforce of carers.
