Birdie
Birdie is a technology platform for homecare agencies that connects care management, rostering, finance, and compliance. Its client record combines care plans, visit notes, and eMAR. Office staff and managers use the secure web-based Agency Hub, while carers can access schedules, care plans, tasks, messaging, and check-in tools through an app with offline capabilities. A Family App gives relatives visit updates and care notes. Birdie says it includes more than 50 pre-built reports and real-time dashboards. It lists rostering integrations with Careplanner/Nourish, Malinko, Cold Harbour, Caras, Quickplan, iCare, and CareFree, while stating it accepts no new integrations for CareFree. Business connections include Xero/QuickBooks, payroll systems such as Sage, CRM systems, API access, and custom exports. Agency plans are priced according to scheduled care hours and require a quote. SmartPlans is not standalone: its listed options are £2.75 hour with a monthly commitment, or £3.50 hour billed monthly with no minimum commitment; three starting hours are free.
